Dave, One thing to consider is look at the slides and rollers on the new tool cabinets and grease them if needed. Some tool cabinets aren't properly lubed and will wear over time. It looks like your shop is coming along nicely. Good job.

Beer fridge? That's brilliant! lol! Actually the coffee pot will have priority over beer fridge. I'm sure we'll put a fridge out there but I'm not gonna fill it with beer just yet. We have a ton of work to do, I'm behind on projects I haven't been able to start yet because of the building delays. When the time comes, remember we have a mutual friend that restores old fridges to look like the antique gas pumps  Would be a perfect addition to all that fancy shtuff youse got

It's incredible the rapid progress that has been made.

Is the apron to your overhead doors permanent, Dave ? I see problems in the future if it is. Could just be me tho'.

We don't have aprons yet, still hauling gravel in and forming the slopes up to the building, back filling etc.
I have a bunch of gravel coming today, probably be rolling in any minute now.

Looks great! Gotta ship your work crew North, I'm in need of someone that works faster than my GC's crews. Got building permit June 26th, they finally finished the foundation last Friday and the framing crew hasn't showed up yet. Was hoping to move in by Christmas, didn't think I'd have to specify what year

boom-chik-a-wow-wow. After some more back fill work. I also got my lift today. Nice. Looking forward to hearing about the ease, or not, of the install. Also, what you did from a foundation perspective where the lift will go?

Nice. Looking forward to hearing about the ease, or not, of the install. Also, what you did from a foundation perspective where the lift will go? Ed, in the ground prep stages I had determined hoist foot locations and I dug a pair of shallow footings to give the hoist a little heavier/stronger place to be anchored. ![[Linked Image]](http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e364/northerndave/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_3674_zps09338062.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e364/northerndave/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_5988_zpsb624f684.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e364/northerndave/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6842_zps04a3781d.jpg) This way I know I wont hit any pex tubing and I can have better confidence in the install of the hoist.

Looks good, as expected. The foundation drawings for my house specifically call out deeper sections in the slab for a lift in one of the bays. I just don't know if it was built to the drawing. My skepticism from my projects in oil and gas where we do not get what we designed and bought... Been trying to chase down the original owner to confirm.

You could always have a core sample done. I think if the oil and gas industry hired hands that read the text in the drawings, we'd be much closer to delivering what the engineers designed

dave, i think off to the right side of the building make sure you leave enough room to put up a holding/hiding fence for future projects too. be Nice not to have to see if you can. a nice vinyl fence would be really nice. Keep up the great work, maybe see it when i get back.
