    Well I started working on the new shop this week. Got some old rigged up walls out and rewired the temp lights. I hope by the end of next summer to have the walls done and the ceiling raised. Then just need to find a wood burner to heat the beast in the winter. Shop will roughly be 1200 sqft when finished.

    Some pics of progress.

    old first stall


    old secound stall


    front area


    now all open
