shop names

[Michael Gibbons]

Does anyone have inventive, korny, or creative names for their workshop. I have dibs on " Patriot Woodworks" if no one else has it.

[Per Swenson]

How about Wonder Workshop! If its a good job, its a wonder!


I could not resist.

[Jeff Sudmeier]

You know, I have been trying to figure out a good name for my workshop. I just can't come up with anything that sticks :)

My nickname is Suds or Sudsy, so I was trying to incorporate that, but I couldn't figure out a good name :)

Anyway, looking forward to the names people have..

[jack duren]

i named my company "Rebelwork Woodworking"

i was told i should have called it "Rebelwood Woodworking".

i was born north, raised southern and now live in the north.

figure i put a lil southern in my northern work. i think the "rebel" part has helped and not helped bring me work. the job im about to rap up now the guy said he called me first cause he figured i was a southern rebel(hes a Harley rider) :cool: ......jack

[Bryan Nuss]

Jeff, how about "Sud's Studs" ? :eek:

[Jim Becker]

I actually do have something I've been throwing around for some time, but it will depend upon if I start to sell some of my turnings and small furniture pieces in the future. We'll see...

[Frank Pellow]

My shop in Toronto is named: Shed 2

That shop is named after my shop at Pellow's Camp, which is called: The Shed

[Bryan Nuss]

Michael,

Could this be a relation of yours?

If so, you might be able to say: "... since 1648" on your sign !! :D

[George Summers]

When she was just learning to talk, my oldest grandchild decided that Grandaddy had too many 'd's and on her own started calling me Grandy. The name has stuck through all the grandkids so far. The shop, which was just called 'the shop' before, has been named "Grandy's Playpen".

[Ken Garlock]

I like "The busted knuckles Workshop - A little of us in every job"

[Bart Leetch]

Bart's Sawmill Pond Shop

After my 2 favorite woodworking forums.

[Nick Mitchell]

I call my shop "Joe".



what?

[Tyler Howell]

I call may shop Basement:o

[Ron Jones near Indy]

I'm pretty unique. ;) I call mine "the shop". :(

[Doug Shepard]

After an occasional splinter, lots of work, and often too much frustration, I've given serious thought to calling it Blood, Sweat, and Tears.

[Wes Newman]

I have dubbed mine "gar-hop" half garage half shop. ;)

[John Bailey]

Bailey's Boats(self explanatory) Blades (Kayak Paddles) and Dulcimers (OK, so I couldn't keep the aliteration going). Not very creative, just says what I make.

John

[John Hart]

My company is called Handykraft...My shop is called Woodkrafters

[John Bush]

Instead of "The New Yankee"" workshop I've heard my antics suggest "The Old Cranky" workshop. After finishing the build on my shop a neighbor stopped by and said "What a darling out-building". When I misbehave my wife calls it the "Get the Out Building. John.

[Mike Tempel]

Well, since my shop is my "garage" (although there is no room for cars with all the shop stuff in it) I call it "Garage Mahal". Or if I am looking for a place to get away from the females in the house I call it "The He-Man Woman Haters Club". Both are fitting in their own right - it is MY place for seclusion and some privacy where I can get something accomplished - although on a limited basis.

[Bill Lewis]

Well I call mine "The Monster Shop". Not because it is big, nor because of all of the recent "Monstor" Shows on TLC. In addition to Woodworking, I like to tinker and build things, namely, I build Monsters, for Halloween display.

[Bill Arnold]

... My nickname is Suds or Sudsy, so I was trying to incorporate that, but I couldn't figure out a good name :) ...

Sudsy's Sweatshop


:D

[Mark Singer]

This describes my quest to compete projects once I start them...friends and family have found me exhausted and disoriented on the floor......if you come over and can't find me ...look down...:confused:

"Shop Till You Drop"

[christopher webb]

well since im a third generation cabinet maker....." family tradition cabinet shop.....furniture that you will keep in the family"

[Ken Salisbury]

Well, there is the "New Yankee Workshop" so why not the "Old Rebel Workshop :D

[Barry Londrigan]

I call mine The Splinter Cell for now

[John Hart]

Well, there is the "New Yankee Workshop" so why not the "Old Rebel Workshop"..
Hey Ken...It looks like you're wearing Norm's shoes!....And hey!...Isn't that Norm's toolbelt?....And Norm's shirt?....Hey!!!!

[Jim O'Dell]

Not sure if or when I will make anything for sale, mostly stuff for the LOML and I. But it is called Coolmeadow Creations. Jim.

[Glenn Clabo]

I call it my shop...the DRLOML calls it "A MESS"

[John Stevens]

Anyone here call their shop the "Utility Muffin Research Kitchen"? P.M. me if so.

[Jack Wood]

My last name being "Wood" made this an easy one. We call it the "the Woodshed" So being taken to the "woodshed" isn't a bad thing around here!:D

[Steve Wargo]

My father's side of the family is Hungarian. When I was younger my Grandfather used to lovingly call me a dumb Hunky, Hunky being slang for Hungarian. I just kind of turned it into the Mad Hunky Workshop, being as I'm a little on the crazy side. Please let it be known, that under no instances should it refer to the fact that my apearance is "hunky".

[Matt Meiser]

Since my shop is in a pole barn, we call it "the barn" or "daddy's barn". Pretty creative, eh?

[Mark J Bachler]

I used to call it "Morning Wood" but once it became a business I changed it to "New Knapp Designs".

[Andy Henriksen]

If this were a contest, Garage Mahal would have to get my vote!

As for me, just "the shop." But even when I mention "the shop," i still get that look from people that says "oh, you mean your garage?"

[Greg Narozniak]

Gregs Garage. I have owned the domain name for 2 years and have yet to build the website for it but it does stick when I mention it to people :)

[James Mudler]

My garage and shop are in the "basement" my soon-to-be-wife, calls it the Man Cave.

[Alan Mikkelsen]

My Grandfather settled in this area in 1934, calling his farm/ranch Mountain View Farm. We have a picture from the 30's with a nice looking, large sign in it. My father and then my wife and I ran the operation until 1998. When we moved to our new home, I was looking for a name, but my wife insisted on using the old name, so it's Mountain View Farm, Gardens and Fine Woodworking. Here's a pic of the sign and the mountain!

[John Hart]

Absolutely beautiful Alan. You got my vote

[Gary Herrmann]

When my son was 3, he christened it "Daddy's room."

[Jeff Sudmeier]

When my son was 3, he christened it "Daddy's room."
I'd bet you love it when LOML says, "Go to your room!"

[Maurice Ungaro]

Well, as the slab of our "garage" got poured an extra foot wider and two feet longer than the plans called for, the height of the ridge got taller than what I had counted on. This prompted the subs on the job to christen it the
Garaj Mahal.

My nickname is Mo, so I guess the tool/machine filled workshop could be called
The Mo-sheen Shop.

[Terry Quiram]

We have been "Ten Fingers Woodworking" for about 20 years and haven't had to change our business cards.

Terry

[Keel McDonald]

Being from the South, I like to call my shop the "Old South Workshop", after the master himself, Norm's New Yankee Workshop.

[Joe Meazle]

I can't share the name of my shop without violating the profanity policy. If you really want to know PM me.

Joe

[John Daugherty]

I like to call mine "The Driveway"! :o

[Kurt Voss]

The steel building that houses my shop also has an upstairs that is a game room for the kiddos. The bottom level besides the shop, stores the bikes, tractor, sports equipment, etc. So it is collectively called the "Toy Box"

[Rob Littleton]

Finally, the shop is built and open and named....

The New Limey Workshop...is open for business.

Business hours are...erm...well....when I get home til I go to bed and weekends.

:-)

[John M. Cioffi]

Occaisionally, I'll call mine-"The OTHER Yankee WorkShop.My Hobby name is JCWoodWorks(registered domain name), however I generally call it the Shop.Some interesting responses;hope it keeps going.
John

[Dale Rodabaugh]

Ive always called mine the WOODSHED,looks like there is another one on here.

[Dave Anderson NH]

I call mine the Intergalactic Headquarters of the Chester Toolworks.:D My grandson calls it Grandpa Dave's shop. My wife Sue calls it the Money Pit.

[Jim Dannels]

I`ve been toying with the idea of" Skunk Valley Wood Werks".
I live about a mile from the South Skunk River.

[Michael Gibbons]

Wow guy's, what a great response. I'm glad I opened this thread. Lots of cool names.

[Steve Cox]

My business name is "Five Firs Custom Woodworking" which refers to the view out the window of my shop.

[Jim Hager]

Bonyfingers Woodworks and Crafts but then I changed the name a bit over a year ago to Hager's Custom Woodworks. I'm still a part-timer but one of these days soon I'm gonna go at it full time. The new name is for a more serious approach. I sure did get a lot of mileage out of the Bonyfingers name that I used for several years. My slogan then was "work your fingers to the bone, what do you get, BONYFINGERS. An old Hoyt Axton tune.

[Jim Stastny]

I call mine 1506 Woodworking

1506 is the street address of my childhood home. A place where dad let me play with all his hammers, saws, screwdrivers, etc.

[Earl Reid]

My shop is "The Barn" The wife calls it The Shop. We have tried to come up with a name for 12 yrs.
Earl

[Mike Stanton]

:D I call mine my room.I say I going to my room. Mike

[Robert Johnstone]

"The Sawdust Factory" or, as it grows in size, "Sawdust City," then "Sawdust World."

[Ron Smith ... Richmond, VA]

and to the point ... mine is called " I. B. Wood " and the name will be transferred to the new shop when it's built. The land we're building on is referred to as "Hickory Nut Hill" by the locals, so there may have to be some slight alterations, but this is the name I've had for it since I first used it back in the Hoosierland.

[Bob Noles]

Name it anything except "9 Fingers" :eek:
