       I really like your image, to me it shows a sign of 'forward
thinking'.

    But in reality I think that if this is a 'workshop', and you want to
show that the spider has been made by you, then you 'must' have a few more
tools on your workbench. Being a jeweller, I would ask questions like, "How
did you drill the holes in the legs?" or similar, but to be honest, there
are so many questions that I would ask, (engineering wise), I won't list/ask
them here.

     You would definately need some pliers, and tweezers for those small
screws. You have some wire in your image, so you would also need some snips,
so I hope that the image attached is useful, although I'm sorry for the
quality, (came straight out of a trade catalogue).

  And how about getting rid of the spanner rack? <Ouch!>, and putting a rack
of pliers on the wall next to the computer?

    Sounds easy, I know, but it isn't.  Good luck, I like it.
