    Good job on moving and setting up a new work shop.
    Your house reeks of passion!
    Also, thanks a lot for sharing your methods and recipes for waxing.
    I decided to go for the dive: bought 3 new chains, a new cassette (the current one is at more than half life so I might outgrow it with the chains), a slow cooker, good quality wax and some teflon. If all goes well, I should put on a newly waxed chain on my bike tomorow.
    Cheers!

    Thanks for sharing. I think one thing that is often overlooked when setting up a workshop is ensuring that you do so in a suitable location, ideally free from too many distractions. You can imagine the problems that might occur should you be distracted while working on brakes or stem etc. TV, social media, family, neighbourhood animals can all be a distraction. The latter can be easily dealt with however.
