Shop Expansion #2: Walls are up!

Les:

I built my “Workshop in the Woods” in ‘07 so I can appreciate your excitement. I’ll suggest painting the interior white and using the new electronic type ballast fixtures with “daylight” bulbs to obtain the highest color rendering index. Add several windows if you can. good light makes a world of difference.

Are you going to use a conventional overhead garage door?

Les, you are certainly moving right along on this build. I am sure that you can’t wait until the subs are finished and you are doing your part.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Les, Looking good!!!

I have one question. Is there a reason the door is hinged the way you have it? Normally doors would open toward the wall and not into the area. Just curious.

-- Oldworld, Fair Oaks, Ca

John the door is getting changed out to swing the other way, contracter ordered wrong.

8iowa, yeap conventional over head door. I’ll be putting in lots of lights, no windows.

thanks guy’s

Very nice, I’m sure you’re excited. Only one question, no windows?

-- DocK, WV

Great job Les. I know you’ll just love having the extra space. Just don’t out grow it too fast.

I don’t want to give up the wall space to windows, I need all of it I can get. And I’d rather not have people being able to look in and see what all I have, if ya know what I mean.

Lookin’ good, Les. I’ll bet you’ve got the heeby-jeebies in anticipation. Good for you!!!

Les,

Your shop is moving right along. I don’t know who’s more anxious to see it finished—we LumberJocks or you!

I’m getting excited just watching!

Looks like a good start Les,

Let me know if you need any help.
