On the floor
John Rudd:
I'm currently painting the floor of my garage....( it just about passes for a workshop :lol: )
Once complete, I think I'll have some form of covering in front of my lathe/mill where I stand when working...,p
So what is the usual stuff to put on the floor?
I'm not expecting to spend like 8 hours a day but would like something that will prevent fatigue..
What do you have on your floor ? Is it comfortable while stood in front of your machine?
awemawson:
OSB3 (the damp proof version) screwed down on 18 " centres, then painted with garage floor paint
WeldingRod:
Rubber mat with big holes in it works well in my shop.

Recycled crumb rubber matting squares, they can be kicked about between machines or propped up against the wall. I used to do upto 6hrs straight working on them, even more comfy with a pair of old Doc Martins.
philf:
Like Welding Rod I use rubber mats with big holes in it. Swarf goes down the holes so doesn't get embedded in the soles of your shoes. I bought three from Aldi earlier in the year. If they get them in again I'll buy some more. It's made such an improvement over standing on a concrete floor.
