Indeed! I have a lathe (old Harrison) and a small mill. I make some motorcycle parts myself, as well as tools for maintaining the bikes.
I also do some wood work. Right now, my main project is refurbishing an old workshop (inherited from my dad and uncle). It is approx 100m2, with garage / workshop at ground level and a woodworking shop at the first floor. It stood with a leaky roof for years, now I have to replace parts of the wooden constructions due to lots of rotten wood. I did the roof some years ago, now it's the rest. Will take me a couple of years, I think.
