Knife making with limited space

[navasky]

I did it for years. It's far from ideal but it's better than not making knives. Put a tarp over your bed when you grind though and dont use fiberglass or carbon fiber.

I may have downsized to the smallest work space ever. I am using a Craftsman rollaway. I had an old 8 foot bench that got damaged from rot. Haven't bought a new one and we are moving so everything I need for knife work fits in this rollaway. 1x30 belt sander, small drill press, grinder / buffer, coarse files, vice! Its all there! Its tight but works.

Bah.. that's weak! All real men and manly women should sleep on a bed of fiberglass! lol But in all seriousness, I feel ya there When I was building hot rods and what not I did many an engine and trans in the spare bathroom in my old place... It's amazing how much of a car can be built indoors lol
