Make this my place of work (6)
I believe the answer is:
smithy
'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" .)
