Smells safe, but when Im working the area right around my head sometimes smells like farts. Damn ventilation sees to that.

Funny, I used to think skunks smelled bad until I was 15 or so. Now I love that smell. I wonder what changed.

I have been fixing up a greasy 100 year old drill press, so it smells like paint, and oil/grease. Basically like a dirty machine shop.

as of yesterday it smelled like beer and ass... but the spring runoff creek that's flowing through my shop right now , has washed all that away....now it smells like frustration and lost productivity.

Not funny. My dogs got into a skunk 2 nights ago right outside my shop. Its going to stink for a while. On top of that I silver soldered all day so it stinks of flux as well. A little of Mother natures kindest deoderizer helps. I least I forget the stench for a while!

100 year old basement. It is what it is. Once the ventilation is running and I've burnt something it's all good.

The shop I'm working in now smells like sage and burning carpet. The last shop I worked in smelled like straight up Camels. And my studio smells like bonfire smoke thanks to the fire I keep burning 24/7 all winter right outside my intake window.
