Finally finished my shop. (For a beginner)

This is the progression of my shop and the complete view of it now.

*Note the triangular shape of the layout, one step to the vice from the anvil and 1.5 steps to the forge from the anvil. The anvil is facing the two doorways so no-one can sneak up on me and there is a source of water nearby. The horn of the anvil is facing out of the triangle so as not to get in the way and take off my leg when coming back from the forge and the floor is level and made of dirt so as to lessen the risk of fire.

 

What do you all think?
