Shop Update 05-27-2024
It has been a while since I have done a shop update. Mostly this is due to not having time and money to work on the shop. My son helped me out and we were able to install insulation in the entire East wall of the shop. The shop is 40'x60' (12.2 meters x 18.3 meters) or 2,400 square ft (731.5 square meters). Hopefully the next update will include plywood and electrical.
