Work in progress

thought I might show you guys where the new saw will be housed with the rest of the machines as soon as i get the floor poured.....



Its 30X40 with 10 ft cealings insulated top and bottom....Hopefull later I will be adding a bit for the finishing and assembly area as money permits..

[Barry O'Mahony]

Very nice. Any doors or windows on the other gable end? If you have openings at both ends, you can get a nice cross-ventilation breeze in the summer.

[George Kretschmann]

That's nice...wish it was mine. Looks like you have plenty of room for expansion too.

[tod evans]

nice job reg! your work`s just starting .02 tod

[Jim Hager]

Super, I was about there where you are about 3 years ago. Now I have nearly no room to walk in. Projects, materials and tools everywhere. It is more relaxing to me to be in my shop than if I were in my new easychair. I hope you enjoy yours that much.


Looks like you have got quite a crew putting it up. Friends and neighbors or a hired crew???

[Frank Pellow]

Conratulations Reg. I bet you will enjoy filling it up.

[Bill Simmeth]

Reg,

Lookin' good! I might just have to buy some of that land on the other side of that 3-phase pole of yours!

[Pete Harbin]

Congrats Reg! Do you have plans to use the space up high?

Thanks guys,
If you got to see the pics of the bandsaw I am getting you can see the space overhead will be used being the saw is 9 ft tall. There are already things comming to put in it. I have a 12" Northfield jointer, a 552 Fay Egan shaper in the works, the Oliver 232-D I am almost finished painting and adding a few missing parts, the 20 inch oliver planer is ready to go. The dust colector is ready to be mounted and the mottiser is acheing to get to work.
Now the project is to get the 3PH power in and inspected. Have the floor poured and wired for the lights.
Yes the scenery is very nice. That mountian or large hill, to some, happens to be the source of my power since the power is generated from there.
Yes Tod there is lots of work to do and sometimes I get overwhelmed just thinking about it but I just keep reminding myself I can only do one thing at a time and it seems to go a little easyer for me
Thos guys there are hired to put up the building. I will be doing the wireing with my nephew and sll the interior hopefully will be log sideing like I have in my house.
I still got a long way to go
