Hey folks...looking for your shop or cave pics. I am currently working on my new call shop. Insulating and wiring just started Saturday. Hoping my wife understands that being in "the doghouse" ain't so bad with a cooler and satellite tv... ;)

Looking good there! Mine is too cluttered right now to put pictures up... :o
Somehow cleaning the shop takes a back seat to paying the bills.
I have to fight my way in my current shop too. Hoping to have a better layout here and room for a better dust collector. Planning to have a chute in the back to throw scraps which will empty into a bin outside...this is going to eliminate half the inside cleanup.
Wow! thats great, much better than my corner in the garage. hope you enjoy it.
Wow....I'm jealous!
Looking good. Can't wait to see the finished product.
My new shop is a bucket compared to what I've seen on other call maker forums. Some look like they belong on mtv cribs. I look at those for ideas. She's all mine though paid for as I go. Its all I can afford. Obama care isn't paying for mine. ;)
That's a shop I would be proud of. Enjoy setting it up like you want it.
It would be cool if you had a porch with columns shaped like strikers.

Sweet idea..I'd have to get a longer bed extension for my lathe or at least rig a dead center.

That's nice gobblez..that a gas log fire place? Haven't decided on my heat source yet.
Yes it's gas and I love it. Toggle switch on/off and a thermostatically controlled fan. This one is a Napoleon, really easy install.
coming along really nice Jim!!!

Good deal. I've been thinking of infrared heaters that are supposed to be economical to operate..have to see what square footage they are good for..don't want something that's iffy.
nice shop hope it works well for your needs :happy0064: :fire:

The thing about infareds is they heat by heating objects that then radiate the heat into the air. That's why you see them in garages and such; the heat the floor slab and the concrete radiates the heat to heat the air. Unless you have a large heat sink like a concrete floor slab, you might want to consider another source.
Thanks for the heads up. May have to look at propane brick heaters.
I guess I used the term "gas" loosely as mine is propane. With the optional wall mounted thermostat and fan it should be both functional and good looking.

Not a callmaker but here is my man cave, it's 1/2 of the upstairs of my garage. Pictures going around the room from L-R.

Ok so here's some pics of where im making calls now and the shop corner where my half (me & my friend building calls as a team) of whats soon to be Tobacco Row Custom Calls will be done in the near future A HUGE THANK YOU first to the GOOD LORD & MY DAD for giving up some space in his dream bldg to his 34yr old son.

Gslam95 that's an awesome man cave. Now if you can just shoot some long beards and big deer to put in it.......lol...
I love all the shop pics. Glad to see guys building calls wherever they can make it happen!
Heck yeah. Nice garage going up there. I'll get some pics up of my current hole in the wall eventually. Gotta make sure everything that can bite is dead first.
LOOKING GOOD JIM !!!
You'll need a plaster job for that cave.... :icon_thumright:
(http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh97/STRIKER1300/WORK026.jpg)

And have added a 14" Ricon band Saw also..
Cool caves and shop's guys, thanks for shearing.
Jthomas- nice shop !! , I dont know how you keep it so clean - I do like the rafter storage idea
Almost done wiring my shop. Got most of it done today. I've been just a helper on the electrical ...woo hooo! can't wait...hopefully be workin in it my mid Oct. Gotta build work tables, blank ranks, a couple equipment pedastals, darn wiring has held me up waiting on those folks. Man cave room and display will come afterwards. One thing I found out. Whatever number you have in mind for price of wiring and electrical, better add another 50% I'm almost down to saving aluminum cans. LOL
Not as nice as some here but she works OK. I need to add some more shelving and clean her up (it's much messier right now than these photos).

Awesome looking shops and man caves. In the process of building mine as well. Converting a house into my shop and cave both.

You know I think a corner mounted fireplace, "One of them triangular deals" will be perfect
These pics taken awhile back. I am almost through with the inside walls now.

It's looking great, can't wait to see the finished product!
Well guys checking in. It was a long hot summer, wiring delays and mandatory ot at work made it hard to get finished on the shop. I'll say this, I just finished a few strikers tonight and I'm kicked back in my high back shop chair with my feet on the table having a drink. Got some tunes on and the rain is hitting the metal roof...shooooot I'm good till spring, see yall! :icon_thumright:
Some good looking shops. I'm still using 1/2 of a double garage. Of course the lawn mower , pressure washer and all that other stuff tends to get in the way at times.
Well Yall remember back in the summer I posted up a pic of this..
(http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee288/gobbler74/Video/IMAG0210.jpg)
Here's a little view of the inside.
(http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee288/gobbler74/Video/IMAG0509.jpg)
Huntin room on the other side of this door. I've got the walls done but haven't built gun racks and display case for calls and such. Got a sleeping loft and home amenities for visiting turkey huntin buddies. It's got its own entrance you can see from first pic. I won't finish it till after spring season 2012 but I will post up pics then.

An old plate my dad give me. It's a 1936 Missouri tag with a couple bullet holes in it..probly shot up in a junk yard but thought it was cool to hang up a little history.

Thats a sweet cave
WOW i may just have to come over and hang out .....just like home !!!

Very nice!! I like it. I especially like using the fans like a chair rail. Very unique and original!
Here's a pic of the outside of the shed that I work in:

and here's the most recent pic that I have of the inside of the shed. That's my ten year old son making a pen this past summer.
