New house, new bike room.
Basement room, lots of space and high ceilings. Also not too far from the furnace and is currently at 70 degrees which is a bit warm for my liking on the trainer at least. Still need to: - Hang/Tape/Finish drywall. - Build out a wall/door to make an actual large storage closet past the main pane. - Maybe install drop ceiling to keep the HVAC duct work and plumbing accessible while also keeping all that heat out of the room. - Route a few HDMI's through the wall so they are hidden from the workbench/charging station to the double TV setup. - Build out a few shelves in the shallow closet for other tools/for sale items. As far as a work stand goes. I swiped a Feedback Sports slide, lock, clamp head on eBay for the cheap and will be installing my own small section of 1-1/2" Pipe on the wall somewhere, hoping it can swing away or down when not in use. |

Small update, still toying with placement of bikes and the work stand before I add some soundproofing insulation and drywall so I can add blocking between studs to keep things as secure and compact as possible.
Feedback work stand clamp (used) and a exterior antenna mount from amazon looks to be a nice compact option and under $75. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5ZR63BY...roduct_details Overall, I want to try to keep that hallway area as clear as possible and I will eventually putting a wall/door there for permanent storage.

My garage is too full of bikes (and other stuff) to work in, so I turned a section of my home office closet into bike tool and parts storage. I can put a bike up on my stand and work on it during boring Teams meetings.

It isn't much, but it's so much better than anything I've had before, |

My workspace is way too cluttered at this time to post. I’m a bit ashamed, lol. |

Bumping this thread back up after a week or so of DIY improvements to the basement bike cave and 3d printing workspace.
Electrical, sound dampening insulation, drywall hang, tape, finish, primed, paint, and moved some things around. Last up is to get the storage area in the back situated and hang some shelves for larger holiday decorations. Overall, really happy with the space. Will decide on a floor and ceiling in the future.

Dude, you're off the rails. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but.. TWO TVs?!?!?

In order to appreciate just how neat and tidy and well-maintained workshops pals like hoj, reformed, KP have, I humbly submit a contrasting picture of my crazy, messy, little happy place. This is what NOT to do.

If you removed the garage door tracks you'd have more overhead space for... junk. And who doesn't need more space junk?

I was counting in my head how many more bikes I can hang.... As it is, the neighborhood kids like to gather around my driveway when I open up the door to work, I don't think I want to encourage them to help themselves to the bikes and the tools when I am not there.

I prefer the weisan style of shop to kpp's personally. All those white walls and empty space look too sterile to me.
Weisan's shop, and mine, remind me of this New Yorker cover, which I also have a print of framed in my living room.

Love this cover - assume it’s available for purchase from TNYer? Might have to add it to my shop, which being new remains pretty pristine but I love it nonetheless! But a lot to be said for the "weathered wizard workshop" look too.
