Make this my place of work (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

smithy

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'place of work' is the definition.
'smithy' can be an answer for 'work' (smithy is a kind of work). I'm not sure about the 'place of' bit.

'make this my' is the wordplay.
'make' indicates anagramming the letters.
'this'+'my'='thismy'
'thismy' anagrammed gives 'SMITHY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for smithy that I've seen before include "work area" , "Old forge" , "Workshop of metal worker" , "Vulcan was concerned?" , "Workplace for forging metal" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
