My boyfriend is obsessed with making things out of wood.
It used to be a hobby.
He would make a table, rocking chair or cutting board for the home. Eventually people saw his fine work and starting giving him business. Now my boyfriend makes wood furniture for a living. He has not updated his workspace with the increase in demand though. He still works in a very small shed with one window. The sawdust, stain and fumes are not good for him. Also, all the moving around and lifting of tools makes him super hot. I really think my boyfriend should get AC installed in the shed. It would not be too hard. The shed already has electric in there. He could get a small window air conditioner and set it up in the one window. Having AC would keep him cool and circulate the fumes that are ruining his indoor air quality. Honestly, I think he needs more power than window cooling. I want him to expand the shed into an actual workspace. He then can have shelving units to hold his tools and stains. The space would be big enough to house his projects. Finally, a real air conditioner device could be installed. A ductless mini split would provide both heating and air conditioning. He could work all year long and be the right temperature. Yes, it will be quite a bit of money upfront. But, with the money he is making my boyfriend can afford this one time expense. After all of it is done, he would have a great workspace.
