Lest we forget (a workshop risk assessment)

contents of the bin in the 'kitchen'. Circa November/December 2008. There is definitely a bit of banana in there...

The 'Kitchen'. I am pleased to note the cafetiere is clean. That shows a rare sign of fore-thought. That canderel in the background was bought in 2004 when I went on my first diet. It has been used once. (never, ever shall it be permitted for human consumption again. Sugar is nice) 

'Kitchen' invading office. The result is 'matter'

Remains of the the dry stores. Most important: Ibuprofen

Fridge. Contents circa November/December 2008. It is interesting to note the milk can only get so bad

Boxes

More boxes

More boxes

Contents of the first aid drawer. It is not sterile in there

Jewellery bench. Last used 2001? Rubble fell down in 2007 whilst work men in the roof

Every workshop needs a Henry. Not every workshop has to use it

Bad dog.

Possibly for protection against self evolving matter

Where I dry wetted enamel. Tray from Westlake scrappy (RIP).

This heater has been going since 1998. If you weren't meant to put things on top they wouldn't have made it flat

Vera. 

She 'survives' on air alone

How to not look after your hammers

Yes. You must wear respiratory protection in here. You must

A secure chemical cupboard (handily located beneath the kiln)

The contents of the chemical cupboard. That nitric acid is corrosive

A must for all workshops: Radio 4

Scrapheap challenge

My lovely guillotine. Been sharpened twice in 11 years

The bookshelf may look precarious but it is as safe as houses

Always work in a clear and ordered environment

The brilliant hole punch. Bought at Bowden Carboot many moons ago

The kiln. The trivets. The forks. The cooling area. The irons. 

The recycled kitchen

The fume cupboard. It neither traps dust or fumes, but it does have a rather fine sash window

Under the worktable. Last cleared out ..... ?

more boxes

Office panorama

Workshop panorama

The store. 

For some reason I keep thinking that the office and the workshop might be able to compact into here when I close down. 

Hmmmmmmm
