It would be pretty amazing to get a collection of photos of all the different businesses represented on this forum. Just a big overview, or a collection of shots from around your place.
I'm sure there is a wild variety of shop sizes, layouts, and states of cleanliness too!
Are you willing to add yours?

Here is ours taken from the loft.

Here is a panorama...

Here are a handful of various ones through out different states of remodeling and constant re positioning. We have no room!!!(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160522/edf0eead335573808dbf9aaa36e52ff1.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160522/c165f12151b29ff416fd7c7a2ccd75cb.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160522/7f99256df09a2d88f0d33eaa8933d945.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160522/e5faa4046965ad91cb7a0142d717cd98.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160522/8a093c81779c39cb9ccf06fb64b31dcf.jpg)(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160522/f6ba9c16c71ca2e2af87d92662a0b469.jpg)

Wow so cool. gonna have to try and post how dirty our shop is!
-
I'm really enjoying having look at these. Thanks for sharing!
-
Waaaaaayyyyyy to clean, what kind of shops are these? ;D
Steve
-
The clean shops are always the first to post!
-
Give me a week and maybe I'll be able to get mine clean enough to not be embarrassing lol
No lint or spray tac issues here, just been so busy that clutter is EVERYWHERE
-
I need to fully disclose that the Pantone color swatch "art" we have, was a idea 100% stolen from a fellow board member, Sqslabs.
-
Yes, we have wall to wall carpet in the print area. Used to be a men's clothing store.
-
We just moved to a new building so it's still very clean.
Attached is a photograph of the printing area.

That is friggin' sweet! How you do that? Is it easy?

Messy shops are people too! I'm keen to see how 'crowded' it gets...

Netx wk 20 pallets, another auto, another manual, finishing/fulfillment departmentl. Space at a premium.

I love this pic of Alex and Greg. It totally looks like Alex is getting scolded by dad. ----ALEX---- "I know, Greg,I know".--------Then Greg says, " Alex, what are you thinking!!! You can't run two autos into that little red dryer man!"
hahahahahahahhahah Just pickin. I'll get up there one day bud!

The Google Inside thing was super easy. We've got a local photographer that contracts with Google to do those pics for local businesses. He charged us $300 for the pics and they stay up forever, it's a pretty cool deal

If I remember correctly, the one thing Mr. Kitson did vocalize(I imagine there was 30 more WTF going on in his head) was he had a hard time warping his head around how we did anything with a 38" belt. Think maybe 2 months later we replaced the dryer(it's stacked up in the back of one pic). It was pretty crazy to have a 60" belt. We felt like we could do acrobatics with the shirts getting them on the dryer now. It's funny, we used that 38" belt for so long we were all just use to it. Looking back we did stack shirts on it like one hell of a game of Tetris though!

Ok, I think I'll qualify as the messiest but here some pics of our craziness

TCT, running Roq's? That must have set you back a pretty penny.
I really like the machines but when I called for a quote I got one price ($79,900) and then a couple of weeks later I got an email from one of the salesman telling me they had the exact machine a customer was trading in for a larger unit. Original price was $69,900 but I could get it for $54,000. When I asked if it was a different machine then I was quoted he said, "no, same machine." Ok, why a difference of $10k???

Pretty penny? Yes, but when you compare feature to feature and you want top of the line, they are WORTH every penny....

You shouldn't have asked, but here it is, a panoramic shot of my space. Probably a typical garage-based shop. My office is in my house.
Washout in the bathroom at the left. The black shelves behind my old orange CAPS dryer has been replaced by a small chest freezer for homebrew. In the rear you can see a rack of some of my roller frames, and the Rollermaster table is underneath, with a tablesaw to the left. The white louvered doors hide my 4x8 exposure room and dry box. My 8-color Vastex press is there, the door to my driveway at the right, and a hint of my red rollaround toolchest can be seen. Out of sight next to that is a workbench with my heatpress and a pile of ink containers. It ain't pretty, but it works.

Have you noticed any increase in traffic or orders due to that investment? I've been looking into it but have no idea if it's worth it (as an investment) or if it's just something cool to have

Its changed a bit since these were taken, but its all I have at the moment.

How much I envy most of you. You all got plenty of space, a nice straight and even floor and probably low rent. The only thing I don`t envy you guys about are the many regulations that are put in place. Here at the other side of the Pacific we don`t have any of those regulations but good factory spaces are hard to get or if you are lucky to find one the rent is very high.

Here's mine so far, just gotta use a little imagination ;D

Not much beats new equipment, but new building sure does!

That spot looks very nice and quiet, heck just from what I see there I like to build a house there ;)

Pictures are a few years old. Not too much has changed...just a little more clutter.

It'll have both luckily! I won't know what to think moving from my garage shop to this.

It definitely is. Right in the middle of ~70 acres (with road frontage too). A house will most likely be built in the future out there somewhere too.

We are working on moving into a 7,000 sq ft section of a 40,000 sq ft building (room to expand!). I'll wait to post pictures of that.
