How big is the shop going to be...

the concrete pad is 19 X 22

the actual building is 18 X 21

for reference, I'm working in an area about 1/4 that size right now

I'll help you if you help me. Sounds like you're going to have a nice shop.

I just disconnected my grinders and moved them to storage, and am packing up my shop. It really sucks. Good luck with the new shop and post progress pictures.

Soup for the win. Also, a JD logo in the concrete is a MUST :madaddy: (I will pay for that)

I'd love to help you move Ken but I'm afraid I'll be watering my lawn and then sweeping the driveway at that time. Congratulations on the new shop! http://www.jerzeedevil.com/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif Be sure to take lots of pictures.

Wow, that narrows it down........just north of "Irmo"...........if "Irmo" is the big thriving metropolis landmark, you are more backwoods than I thought.

I am also envisioning the trailer park meth head chain gang in striped outfits pouring your concrete and doing the wiring...........I bet you look pretty intimidating with the mirrored sunglasses and your rifle sitting on your horse supervising..............all 5 ft. of ya.................:devil1:

Trench your power lines.............look who's getting all California and shit with your underground utilities. I like how you got the slab located out by the "sweatbox" in the background. It's also nice that you have a tarp up so the bloodhounds can get some shade. You run a nice operation out there Brock, and the inmates did a nice job on the slab. :madaddy:
