Yes rents can be high in London but I know lots of examples of business (students taking over empty shop to sell art or fashion) and events (warehouses being change into artist studios/galleries) that take over an empty spaces on very good deals because a landlord’s prefer to have some rent than no rent. You just need to ride around London to see the boarded up and empty buildings.
You only really need a space for the workshop and power supply with could be any type of building. Find an empty building and find friendly commercial landlord because there is nothing to lose.
