#1 | | New Shop, sort of... Floor.. Photo Update 11/13 Name: John City: Jefferson City State: TN County: Jefferson Join Date: Nov 2008  07-18-2009, 05:55 PM
OK, I am building a new shop, is should be 70 x 28 with a garage door at one end. It will also double as the support for the walls of our new house. Yes, this is a basement, full daylight on two sides and will be shop and working garage as there is also a garage on the main level that will be for parking.
We have started the task of clearing the lot so now I am willing to start sharing the progress.
This is also somewhat of a gloat because we had a lot of large old white/red oaks that had to make way for the house and I got a mill to saw it for 1/2 the product. I am going to get a LOT of lumber! .gif "Drogar BigGrin(DBG)")  :

Here is my half of the logs, I have no idea yet how much it is, except that it is a "Big Pile of Lumber".
Now I have to do something with it.
