Old barn find I breathed new life in because gravel bikes are too expensive so fuck it I'll make my own.
Just waiting for the last parts since i lost some plastic thingamabobs I need for the STIs.
Sometimes I think I should keep my bike shop like surgically clean so I don't lose the small, crucially important plastic bits in the mess of parts and old boxes but alas, if your personal shop doesn't look like you could outfit a frame with parts you find on the ground, is it even a shop?
I used to just wrench on gym mats in my old flat, 1-2 bicycles never really took up too much storage for me to worry about and it protected the floor, easy to lay out but also easy to stow away, maybe that's something for you if you wanna tinker with your bike? A folding bike is still a bike in the end and much of tinkering with bikes doesn't require you to turn your living room into a workshop, imo
