Sounds more \u201cartsy\u201d\u00a0doesn&#8217;t\u00a0it? Since I am not working like a production shop just making one thing over and over, maybe the new description is more accurate. However, it\u00a0doesn&#8217;t\u00a0seem as hard core and \u201cman cave\u201d sounding like \u201cworkshop\u201d or \u201cmachine shop\u201d so maybe I should leave it as is. Is there an image to protect?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m just funning of course as I don\u2019t really have an image I am concerned about. I just do what I do because it is stuff I like to do. I don\u2019t care what the place is called where I do it. If you want to know the truth, it is a garage. The Aussie\u2019s (and probably others) call it a shed or shedding. Go figure, but I kind of like their term. Another example; I call the location of my ham radio station my \u201cshack\u201d, but it really\u00a0isn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>As far as the number of projects, I do have more than one under way. I am guilty about jumping around between them because there are so many things I want to try and so many things I can do. I just don\u2019t seem to have enough time to do everything one at a time. I have to have something else to do when the glue is drying or parts are on order.<\/p>\n<p>So maybe I need to be more \u201cstudious\u201d with my projects? That infers more attention to detail and higher quality, right? I am thinking a studio is where you are more studious with your work and therefore your work is of higher quality. A workshop is where you simply pound things together with a hammer until they fit &#8211; more caveman style.<\/p>\n<p>Ha! Too much pondering, I should just get back to work.
