i build in my garage and shoot in the feilds around my house, i live on a farm so i cant possibley hit anything that will get me in trouble.
"physics, gravity, and law enforcement are the only things that prevent me from operating at my full potential" - not sure, but i like the quote

you know you are not an engineer if you have to remind yourself "left loosy righty tighty"

My work area is my back yard, which also doubles as a shooting range. I usually exceed my 30 foot boundary and shoot them over the fence and down 6 or 7 blocks.

Heh.

My workroom is my bedroom or a narrow shed with about five bikes in it.

Have to do all cutting and grinding in the shed freehand with a dremel so it's all a bit ghetto insofar as machining goes.

Gluing and connecting bits is bedroom work :)

My shooting range is any field I can be bothered to cycle/trudge out to, or I have an old wooden door/concrete wall and about 20m of garden I can use.

Any kind of garden shooting involves sneaking around to check the FIVE gardens around me are empty first, dashing out, taking a shot, dashing back to hide it again, then going back out to see how it went ^_^

My work space is my garage and workbench (I'll take a photo later) and I made an extendable table that comes out of a cupboard in my bed room. If Im really lazy my bed works great! :D (And I wonder why I have dust allergies :wink: )
I shoot in the park just round the corner from my house. but sometimes old people complain so my garden works well then.
But I'll take photos later, because theres a massive storm at the moment!
