Time in shop poll

How many hours a week do you spend in your ww shop?

[gad5264]

Right now in this frigid Ohio weather it's practically "0" but when it's warmer I can't get enough of it.

I chose the 10-24 option because somewhere within that range is correct for an annual average. As was already mentioned, weather -- hot OR cold -- can play a role. Otherwise, given suitably mild conditions, I'm right on the cusp of rolling over into the 24+ hours division.

It's too cold in southern Ontario to spend much time in my unheated shop but in about two months you will find me there from the time I get home from work until it's time for bed.

I'm saying 5 - 10 hours now. Like everyone else, weather has an effect.

Not near enough

Two little ones and the LOML's work schedule keep me from spending more than a couple hours a week there. Hoping I'll get more time as the kids get old enough to keep themselves busy

Since I moved and got my shop into the basement and I am retired, I get lots of shop time....as much as I want. Life is good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SWMBO loves it when I spend a lot of time down there 'cause then I'm not upstairs bugging her!

I said 5-10 hours. The weather is not a factor for me as my shop is in the basement but I go do through cycles Usualy more hours near the end of a project

I do have a lot of catching up for last year!

[Mrs. Wallnut]

I have had no shop time for about maybe 2 years now. Ever since I found out that I was pregnant and the doc told me the saw dust and the loud noise may affect the little bundle. But now that he is a year old I still am getting no shop time. I believe as he gets older and the twins are capable of watching him for me then I will get out there a little bit more.

At least that is the wish that I have.....

[Pappy]

5-10 for now, severely limited by weather. Once the new shop is up the Boss ain't never gonna see me!

[crokett]

For at least a year it has been 0. This year I will change that.

[John Hunter]

I went with the 10-24 as that is about the average. Naturally when wrapped up in a big project the time is much more but I would say that 24 would be a good average.

Well since I have a basement shop beneath an apt occupied by renters, I have to try to be as courteous as possible about the hours I do WWing. So, I never go past 9PM on weeknights, and usually stop around 8:30. During the weekends, I hate to start before noon, and again don't want to go much past 8 or 9. Plus, take out time for working out, home improvement, and other activities- I'm happy to get 5 hours a week...
