I have overhead lighting (and it is actually plenty bright) and I have a few more work lamps set up... I don't like fluorescent lights as they can be fussy when it is really cold and they give my beautiful assistant headaches.

Our main frame shop is out in the country and it is a wondrous place that overlooks a little valley with pasture and horses... this is where we do all the heavier machining, frame building work, and powder coating.

At my shop I can handle pretty much any repair and do a lot of lighter brazing work which saves people a 60 miles round trip for what might be a 30 minute job.

When I am not working in my shop or the main shop I often volunteer at our bike co-op which has 8 individually equipped stands and a full suite of specialty tools that can handle anything.
