wheeledhorseman 574 #2 Posted February 2, 2012 No, that's a work is in progress bench! Start moving stuff about and you'll never find it again. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raider10 3 #7 Posted February 2, 2012 Thats not the worst of it. Dads had to build a new shed onto back of garage to accomodate another bench. Can only just get through door its that full. Counted about 11 horse tyres plus god knows what else. Even extended hut down garden from 8x9 foot to 16x16 foot. Thats now got 3 horses and my mountfield 4155h crammed in plus loads of other gardenin tackle and a bench somewhere! And theres a workshop built onto side of house full of junk and two classic motor bikes, and a massive bench, which is full! then theres the cellar with another 3 benches. Just enough room to put a pot of tea down, theres a another classic bike burried in there too. I even had to put another 10x6 foot shed down garden. Thats got caravan stuff and a load of range rover classic bits in, and a bench which i cant even see. So the garage bench is just for starters. Thankfully you cant see the other side of the garage. Cheerio. :eusa-think: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DoctorHfuhruhurr 137 #11 Posted February 2, 2012 That's immaculate compared to mine. According to researchers a messy desk (or in this case, workbench) leads people to think more clearly. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2088359/Messy-desks-office-actually-lead-employees-think-clearly-say-researchers.html .

Anglo Traction 761 #13 Posted February 3, 2012 Mmm, I feel better now I've seen someone elses Bench state!. I have to play a game of Solitaire in my Garage to make a space at the moment. Suppose I'm a bit of a Magpie when it comes to accumulating Stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,570 #14 Posted February 3, 2012 ....what's the collective noun for a group of magpies? That best describes our family :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeledhorseman 574 #15 Posted February 3, 2012 Could it be an 'encampment' ? You don't drive Transit tippers by any chance? I need to be careful what I say here, specially as apart from all the stuff that might be useful sometime I've got a ferrous and non-ferrous scrap pile in the yard for 'weighing in'.

Norlett 3 #16 Posted February 3, 2012 This nice tidy bench has created a good topic. Went in my shed this morning To find my bench.and try tidy it up. Before Meadowfield (mark) and raider10 (ian) Can take photos of it.Then post it on this forum. It should be tidy when they see it. And then that will shame them (joking) :ychain: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raider10 3 #21 Posted February 3, 2012 Not sure wot I'm working on now, can't find it! might have a tidy this weekend. Think i can find the way in. Hoping it doesnt snow. Causes nowt but chaos in this country. Half an inch of the white stuff and the whole place grinds to a halt! Too many idiots who can't drive and councils who can't spread grit! :angry-argument: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wheeledhorseman 574 #22 Posted February 3, 2012 Now this is clean and tidy - for me at least. No, I haven't cleaned it up for a photo shoot - it's just as I found it this morning. I did clear off one end of the bench last week so I could actually work on it but its started to 'fill in' again. I think Gremlins do it, a little bit each night, so you don't notice until you can't find even the tiniest place to work. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raider10 3 #23 Posted February 4, 2012 Nice one Andy. Thats 10 times better than mine! Will post a pic of the true horror that is my workshop later on. Might have a tidy then. Ps did you get my reply about ammeter? Gonna go for a voltmeter. Much better for seeing wots happening in the battery department. Again thanks for the offer. Ian. its saturday! :banana-rock: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
