After a month of searching, agonising and generally worrying – I have a studio. Done, paid for, key on my keyring.<\/p>\n

I’m delighted, but the\u00a0challenges\u00a0of building my own workshop are now realities and my lack of knowledge on how to construct anything\u00a0<\/em>means I’m at the bottom of a steep learning curve.<\/p>\n

Print table first, everything else after. Luckily the ledge at the back of the space will allow me to store my screens there with a bit of carpet on the floor – meaning one less thing to construct. Ofcourse there is stretching and coating and exposing said screens, but I’m not getting into that yet.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Note the bloody useful distance between where my table will be (along the lefthand side wall) and the sinks.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, to build a print table. I am making mine from scratch to avoid a wobbly, too low, too small surface. Mine will have a 90cm high table top which will be roughly 8 by 4 (or 148cm x 122cm in metric\/ normal people speak).<\/p>\n

You will need:<\/p>\n

-One useful person who knows how to construct things, best if they come with own transport<\/p>\n

– Lots of wood. 6 legs (70cm square posts are good) need bracing both along diagonals and around the bottom. I will be using various dimensions of wood for this, my useful person will give me the details as we go.<\/p>\n

-if you have a van you can buy a sheet of 8 by 4 mdf or plywood, if you have a Nissan Micra you can buy loft flooring which tongue and groove slots together. This will mean more construction, but less van.<\/p>\n

-Wadding. I will be using recycled carpet underlay, but I have yet to order it….<\/p>\n

-Rubber table top surface. Pond liner is\u00a0apparently\u00a0the stuff for this, but again I have yet to order it…<\/p>\n

Alongside these things you’ll need: a hefty set of saw, hammer, screwdriver and staplegun. You will then of course need the right nails, screws and staples.<\/p>\n

I am very lucky to have my father as the most useful person anyone could ask for, and he has promised to make sure I learn so that in future I can do it all solo. Maybe then I can be a useful person too, one can only hope.<\/p>\n
