The Interior of the workshop / garage

 


September 27, 2006 - 2nd Floor interior

This photo shows the proximity of the workshop to the house.  Not a bad commute to get to work in the mornings.


March 2, 2007 - Tools have moved in, but still much work needed to get them in order.

Over the past two weeks we moved my larger woodworking tools into their new space.  We are still working off extension cords and the dust vac has not been set up so there's not much woodworking going on yet.  I am getting a sense of what it will be like once finished.  It's going to be a great workshop!


May 8, 2007 - Workshop starting to take shape.

We spent the weekend moving lumber up to the attic so now my workshop is spacious again.

Robert bought a 5hp cabinet saw which is still downstairs because it is so heavy.  I have already started making decorative boxes again, but we still spend so much time working on the building (and sailing) that I don't have much time for making sawdust.


October 20, 2007 - Workshop fill up.

We got the heavy cabinet saw up and Robert ran a 220V electrical circuit to it through the attic.  We did the same for the new 8" x 76" Grizzly jointer.  What a nice piece of machinery this is!  It is wonderful having so much floor space so that each tool has its dedicated spot.

In November we painted the outside of the building.  On December 4, 2007 we got the Certificate of Occupancy.

The End.
