My first shop was 7x11 with a shopsmith knockoff at the center. The windows were plastic sheeting. That was outdoors enough. I think you might start to think Japanese, on the deck. Put a waterproof cabinet for tools in one corner, some flip down floor panels along one side, and a knockdown planing bench somewhere else.

Of course you are nuts. I think the bedroom is a better place for a shop. I recall having my Legacy mill in there awhile ago. Sleep on the foldout couch or a murphy.

Enjoy the quest...but you will still want a better shop.
