    Skott, that looks like a fantastic shop. It looks like a great space to work. I sure wish that I had those wood floors and all your cabinets in my new shop.

    What a nice shop. I could enjoy just sitting out there and reading or watching TV when not working. That must be a joy to work in.

    Great looking shop. I would recommend a fridge, a barca-lounger, and a tv next.

    skott,
    OHHHHhhhhh, that's a beautiful turning shop. Robust lathe looks new also.
    You need to make some curlies......
    What size is it? ...perhaps 20' square?
    Do you have another shop for flatwork, or is this all of it? What are you doing for wood storage and drying areas?
    (And my favorite part of it is the wood burning stove, how nice they are.)

    Just made a windsor stool for the shop. I don't do flat work at this time but do have a pole barn next to the shop for storage and an old rockwell model 10 table saw. I have been blessed. I did try to create a space that would be very inviting and have it's own beauty. More of a studio inspired by the North House Folk School in Grand Marais , MN

    I'd venture a guess maybe 24'x30' ?

    One of the finest shops Ive seen in a long time. Great space!!
    If at first you don't succeed, look in the trash for the instructions.

    I am jealous!! and I have a decent shop myself.

    Mine is only 20 x 24 but it suits me.
