Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire My new shop.

LMAO!

As far as the bulbs... what ever the current is, it's not T8?

what ever the "skinny bulbs" are.

Man, that is looking good Dave.

So, when's the Grand Opening?

Well then the service door is 4' tall.

Remember to get the rebate for those electrical items.

Shut up, Tom!

I wen through this last winter for my garage.

Check output per watt used. You'll probably have them on long enough each day for that to be worth checking.

FWIW; the T number is the bulb diameter in 1/8ths.

A T8 is 1' Dia. A T5 is 5/8ths dia.

Just be sure to have more than the minimum lumens or lux at the floor.

Start Here

It'd be a bitch to have to add floor lamps after all you're going through.

here's a shot looking down the driveway.



And 2 of my fav toys that have shown up in recent days.

bad ass spot welder



cabinet blaster.




We got insulation in the walls today, ready for overhead doors and the liner panel soon!

Lookin' very nice, ND..

The shop looks almost like einers new house, about his perfect size in that pic. Looking really good.

Dave, did you promise them boys some gold coins or something as a bonus for finishing quick like? They, and you are moving right along.


Clyde

Forum member "white bear" can attest to the following.

These men are from a specific community in Northern MN that happens to hold high consistency in work ethics and old world noble values. I do mean the best I have ever observed from one specific area, ever.

I've been a lot of places in the world and it has not gone unnoticed by me, the phenomenon that I associate with a town called "Greenbush, MN".

It's not in the water, it's in the people. They are very strong people in all the right ways one could measure strength.

It is clear to me, that this strong community does as we used to say in the Marines. They "police their own". Not many here stray from a specific blueprint of ethics, values and good old fashioned manners.



I haven't had to bait them along or prod them along with anything, this is just the way they are.

ND, great progress!

Our country could use a few more communities like that.

That's awesome Dave. I am guessing Amish? No matter, what they are accomplishing in such little time should be instilled in the next generation as a whole. WOW! what a work ethic. (you too)



Clyde

Lol, no Clyde. Believe it or not they are not amish. They may work like amish, but they drink beer and wear Massy and John Deere baseball caps, blue jeans, pickup trucks, they swear when it's ok to do so, hunt, fish etc. Just really hard working country folks.

Ohhhh.....the things I would like to stick in that sand blaster...

It would be cool to see the work crews in action...but considering how fast that structure is moving forward, I might have have been inspired to do that on my last property and might not have sold it and moved...

I have more acreage now, but it's more remote.

I got doors!



Nice windows in the overhead doors.



they function real nice, the poly is on the ceiling too, liner panel is next week!

Ag shop in HS had a ceiling like that,...was fun to flip welding rods into when Mr. Anderson wasn't looking...

Dang,..at this pace, you should turn your first vehicle out before Christmas...

no, no, no... i gotta have the first one out before elk hunting (oct)
