Title: My new shop
Post by: Dano on July 08, 2008, 07:29:00 PM
I just thought I'd share this, after a year of planning, permits, and other county holdups, I finaly have a new shop. The old one was a little cramped with a boat, 4 wheelers, lawn mowers and a truck. The new section is 25' x 30', a good size, don't know who's going to keep it clean. I have the inside almost done. Here are a few pictures just to tease the shop impared.

Steve, that's the nieghbors house   "[dntthnk]"  Here's a shot from the shop back to the house, not a bad patio to sip on a lemonade huh? If the wife gets her way (again) there will be a pool someday.

Dano...is that a Gerstner next to a double-door freezer-fridge that is slightly skinnier than the Gerstner???

Sucker's huge!  :eek:   That'll hold a whole MESS of draw knives! :scared:

Nice shop. I also noticed you don't have much grass to mow. That is a plus.

Dano,

Beauty of a shop!  Best of times yet to be had.   :thumbsup:  

Please tell us a bit about that sign on the front of the original two bay building.  I can't quite make it out on the screen.

Yes, Thanks Dano. I've been trying to get set up in the old hospital we are staying in. I think once I get the windows repaired I will be able to resume some archery related pursuits.

Great looking workspace Dano and soon you will be able to dive in off the porch and swim to the shop, when Mama gets her way.

Nice digs, Dano!  I like the way you recycle items like the old file cabinet.  Ideas are coming to me for my remodel.

I thought the file cabinet was a map chest, but whatever it is sure caught my eye!  I'd love to find a treasure like that.  Nothing better than shallow drawers for organized storage!  Nice workbench too...
Great looking shop Dano   :thumbsup:

Nice shop.. your a lucky guy!

Thanks guys.
Joe, I guess some would call it a map chest, I've just always heard them refered to as flat file cabinets, yeah the shallow drawers are great for tools. I jointed a couple together for bigger tools. It would be a worth while project if a guy decided to build one.
Calvin, no you'll have to sleep outside, with the rest of the wildlife!!
 :rolleyes:    :D

Since my move to OK, I am forced to scrap bows under a pavillion... My wife thinks we need to have a cabin built before the new shop for some reason....

I was just starting to adjust, and then you have to go and show off Dano... MAN!

Chad, Rome wasn't built in one day you know   ;)  (I always wanted to say that)  :D  

Calvin, you can have the extra bedroom, as long as you don't mind sleeping with the dog.
