“I should just build a floor on my floor!” I joked to my friend. “Yea, I could just put some plywood on top of the carpet. Then it would be safe from metal shavings and other workshop mess.”
We laughed at the ridiculous idea.
However, my subconscious wasn’t laughing. “build a floor on my floor…. build a floor on my floor” it echoed in the depths. It waited.
Good build, not sure why they're making a big deal about the idea, I think it's a pretty normal solution and what a lot of people would do? Makes for more interesting reading at least I guess! A bit more ideal would be to use an ESD dissipative vinyl flooring product on top of the ply and properly ground it, but what they've got is better than carpet and probably fine for most of what you'd do at home I guess.
