Sup DIY?
I'm looking to build a workshop on a property I own. Space isn't a concern but I'm building a new building so cost is. I need a place where I can do build furniture as big as a table. How big should my workshop be?
At least 10x20 ft, I'd go for 20x20ft at a minimum if you're building furniture.
as big as you can afford and legally allowed.
You can build tables in normal sized garages, it's all about space management.

Could you elaborate? Why do I need more than 20 by 20?

Trust me, go as big as you can possibly afford.
That way you have room for expansion as your business grows.

More space to put new tools and machines you'll eventually buy.

room for tools
room for moving around
room for unfinished work
room for materials
And room for stuff which does not really belong there, but you keep there because otherwise your wife keeps nagging and you're tired of repeated pointless fights. Well, assuming you have a wife who's an obnoxious ass. Or if you're a hoarder.
