What does your tying space look like

[eric beebe]

I’m curious to see what everyone’s tying space looks like. Maybe I can get get a few other ideas on organization.
This is My tying room.

Im not about to throw up a pic of my stuff….after seeing that.

Nice!

Don’t have a room any more so quite often it looks like this

I like yours better.

I keep my fly tying room above my garage.  Sometimes my desk top is clean, but sometimes not:

This room above my garage was, literally, several years in the planning.  The desk is on the front right side of the room.  Here is a shot of the back right side:

One thing I like about the room is the space.  Every now and then, I put tables around the pool table for fly tying sessions.  With tables around all 4 sides, I can easily fit 12 folks.

My oldest has taken a stab at tying, but it isn’t in her veins, yet.

Unfortunately, my own tying skills leave much to be desired.

In all seriousness, the garage is nicer than our house.  However, recognizing that I was having those once-in-a-lifetime opportunity moments, I got a bit carried away on the garage renovation.  

Gary’s room looks pretty sweet as does Eric’s.  Eric, I think you could give graduate-level instruction on organization.  When I can’t find things, I spread stuff out on the floor until it appears.

I should edit the duck out,
Would be a very convincing rise 😉

Barramundi is the target fish which are stocked there

We’ve had this thread before, but it’s good to see, maybe web master Matthews can dig up the old one…

I will put some new pics of mine up tonight…

[Scott G.]

Eric,

Your room looks more like a fly shop than personal fly tying space. That’s amazing!

[sam hall]

I like these kinds of threads…

Eric that space is amazing…and I like Aaron’s as well.

[Colin M.]

I agree is that your tying space or a fly shop?

[Zach Matthews]

Yeah these threads are great.

One of these days when I get to build a house I am going to have a tying area built in with real cabinets.

[Aaron Christensen]

Y
Aaron what is that chest or cabinet behind your desk?  

The two chests on the desk are Gerstner tool chests — not the highly prized US-made Gerstner chests but suitable for what I wanted.  They are available from Sears by special order.  The one on the bottom is their 3-drawer base and the other is obviously the top.   The one off to the side is a Harbor Freight knock off – I would recommended the real (but imported) Gerstners over the knock off.  Night and day difference in quality.

Allan Dozier has some beautiful antique tying cabinets.  Maybe he will chime in with a picture.  

[Neal Osborn]

I got lost in your photos Eric!

[Allan Dozier]

Wow!

I plan on living forever, so far so good.

I don’t post pictures yet, so here is a link to what my Tying Room looked like when I moved into it about five years ago:

It’s a lot fuller and messier now.

Just picture an ikea kitchen table in a kitchen.

[matt maness]

[Matt Tucker]

Well gents, I have now reached a point in my basement construction project that I get to design my “office”.

[Rich Kovars]

I like the Gerstner boxes as well.
