Well I’ve been posting some here and thought you might want to see my lastest project. Been pushing 2 years, but things are finally looking up.
Of course the 1st pic is my old shop after Katrina. She took no prisoners.
2nd pic is new shop. Built with the trees I lost (27) to the storm. Bought a Turner bandmill and so it’s somewhat of a Phoenix….

Will start to post more pics now, as I have finally figured it out…lol… I hope…

Thanks for looking.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a nice building and also cool that you can use the storm strewn trees. Good luck.

A lot of tragic tales of Katrina, but we do survive and rebuild. I hope that you and yours survived okay. Please tell us how it goes. We will cheer you on every step of the way….

Wow… one of the things I love about Utah is we have very low suseptability (sp) to major natural disasters. This is apparent when you can insure a $500K home for $500 per year that is 4500 Square Feet. I feel for you and as I see earthquakes in California and Hurricanes in the gulf regions and ice storms elsewhere I have grown to appreciate my climate here with 4 seasons but very little extreme weather. Love the making lemonade from lemons. I guess the one advantage to being forced to rebuild after having done it once is you can do it better the second time.
