Default Fly Tying Room Suggestions

Ok guys, I'm moving house in a couple of months and the better half is allowing me to have a fly tying room. Mind you its the only input I'm allowed to have as she's an architect, suits me.

Anyways, I'm looking for ideas on how to kit the room out, bench, storage etc. All advice, greatly received.

Cheers

The Dibbler

Just a quick suggestion get yourself a white bench. A good alternative is chipboard with a white plastic surface, the kind used in making wardrobes. It makes it so much easier on the eyes to tie your flies.

South facing room for the best light would be my priority.
