Title: "New" Shop "Pic Heavy"
Post by: West Augusta on July 09, 2017, 02:15:51 PM
I don't have one.  YET.
There is an old shed behind my house that I thought about dozing but upon further inspection and thought might just make a nice,  small strikers shop.  It's stick built with a concrete floor.  Stay tuned and I'll post pictures as progress on the West Augusta shop slowly picks up speed.  I miss making sawdust.
The place needs a lot of work but I have a few friends that are going to help with some of the"heavy" construction type work.

The inside of the shed.  Much of the junk was left behind by the previous owners.

"New" shop door primed on one side.

Got a little more work done tonight.

Some of the junk left behind by the former residents that I took out of the shed tonight along with 3 garbage bags of small stuff.

The door.  Been buffed a little,  primed and now some rattle can Brown.

Still a ways to go.  The wood is mine.  Striker stock.

Found 400 sheets of notebook paper in the "attic" from the prices,  they must have been there since I was in high school.
