I received many comments asking to do a tour of my NEW SHOP and here it is. The shop is equipped with traditional hand tools, hand powered and foot powered tools. I used them on a daily basis to restore rare old knives and cool old rusty tools.

Moving to the new shop was in late October and I had to renovate the floor, walls, ceiling and install the lightning. First video I started shooting in the beginning of December. The shop is 280 square feet (26 square meters) which is more than 6 times bigger than my previous one. I do not use electricity for tools except for the lights, ventilation, camera and heating the space.
