    Very nice Bill. Once the electrician finishes up I'm sure the LOYL will know exactly where to find you.

    looks like you need to tear down the building and start over. The building looks to be about 6 feet to far right for the path leading to the building.

    I guess they might be ok, if they weren't a tripping hazzard when trying to go through the wall to get into the shop.

    I agree, it's already not big enough but it's better than the 80 square feet I had to use in my garage. Believe me when I say, space utilization is going to be critical. Did you see the other post I did with my compact pocket tool rack?

    When I added my 26'X28' workshop addition I thought there is no way I'll ever use all of this space. Wrong

    Looks great Bill, it's been fun to watch your progress. I look forward to seeing the 2000 piece bowl.

    Bill, looking good. Did you put a loft in there with a fold down bed for when you're in the dog house?

    Chris, Ive been the dog house since this whole thing got started But yes I'm going to build a loft in it soon. The plywood it came with is what I'll use for that. I had decided to do the floor with cabinet grade ply instead of the 5/8ths it came with. The deal with The LOML is she gets tha garage and my stuff goes into the work shop. I used to collect Hotwheels and I have bis full of brand new stuff 10 years old and never opened. That's going to suck up about 1/2 of the loft unless I can sell it. Right now I want to put some insulation in it to keep the temp down. It's supposed to be 104 tomorrow and 106 on my days off . With out insulation the A/C doesn't stand a chance.

    House worth a couple of hundred K? Have your own business? Fancy truck in the driveway?
