Capesams, new shop update?

Hey Steve, how's the new shop? Interested to see how you have risen from the ashes of February. (As is, in progress pics. Not looking for pristine magazine shots....)

TXS....no mess- no progress-I guess..tough to get reg. work done then hit the shop after work and and and,,but shes comin along slooowwwwly.....but surely....the room with the white doors will be the design/plan drawing office..the other small room off to the left is the bathroom[i'll miss my white bucket] the basement is just for junk/overflow.....the attic is the same size as the basement...my new home if the wife kicks me out of the house[room for karl too]....still needs a full length step going across the porch....not so many tools as before as we learned to do the same work with less....the pine on the walls is something you don't find much of anymore...45 year old growth air dried,,been sitting in storage all these years..nice stuff.

snow?we had 3-4 " then it rained..thank god.
