A Real Basement Workshop

Stu's Dungeon Tour
Time: 5:37
Submitted by: Stu Ablett
Tokyo, Japan

Holy Moly! And you thought you're shop space was creative. You haven't seen anything until you watch this video shop tour by ex-pat woodworker Stu Ablett, of Tokyo, Japan. 

Affectionately dubbed his "Dungeon Workshop," the cramped and cozy basement quarters is accessible from a hatch in the floor and a steep flight of stairs, but it is jam packed with dust collection, innovative storage solutions, and all the basic tools. The question is, how did he get everything through the hatch?

For more videos from Stu in Japan, visit his video page on YouTube. Explore our site for more videos and articles about the Workshop.
