Dear God, please give me a workspace like the one Roy has.
I've featured Roy here before, and it doesn't seem like his machines have become less cool, since we last heard of him.

One Month of Denim - Day 21
Roy Slaper of Roy Denim is an artist. No doubt about that. Just like Blue Highway, he is making his own jeans one by one, but he has got a bigger and better selection of machinery. The cool thing is that he makes everything himself and he does all of it on old machines from Singer and Union Special for instance. Before reading anymore you should just watch this video done by Self Edge.
When he started out he offered made to order jeans for customers through Superfuture and they were definitely in demand, so much that he decided to focus on making jeans and selling them online exclusively through Self Edge.
I think I could write a lot more about Roy and his one man operation, but I think many people have done so and done so with a great angle in the past, that I would much rather turn your attention to them. But may I just add, that I love the scalloped stitch, he uses.
Did I mention, that he makes a pair of fantastic jeans in duck cotton? Well, he does.
And did I mention, that there is another movie of his jeans-making-goodness floating around? Well, there is.
