A while back we posted on examples on how to set up your leatherworking space to work cleaner, faster and easier. Many of our readers sent us examples of their workspaces which inspired even more of you to show your examples. Below are a few more highlights of what we’ve collected. I’m still impressed with the variety of workspaces whether is a tooling dream setup or a highly mobile case.

These are quite inspiring! I’d love to see how folks store their leather, too.

Very nice, I enjoy seeing how others work. Good ideas for tool storage. Great inspiration!

Peter emailed us a photo of his leather storage. He uses 6″ cardboard tubes.
Thanks for sending in the updated photo Peter!

I would love to see more examples of how people store their leather. I folded mine according to a video that showed how to fold leather in a way that minimizes creases but since I have many hides stacked I’m not confident that this is the best way. I don’t have the space for the rolls as depicted in the example.

My work area is in our bedroom and is a disaster! I am not an organized artist, my glass studio is the same. I need some serious inspiration you all
Love the studios shown!

Glad you enjoyed the post, Sue! I think we all need a little organization inspiration every now and then!

Great workspaces. Given me ideas, but where in the world do I get those cardboard tubes?
Fine Leather
Good question! I would like to know too.

Carpet Stores ???

They look like tubes for forming cement. You’d find the at home depot, menards, etc

I picked up four 12′ long, 4″ wide tubes at a local paint/flooring store. They were happy to give them to me instead of cutting up for the dumpster.

Great find!
