Alright, it`s been slow lately but here are some pics of what we have done. We went ahead and got some shelving in, and started populating the shelves. Not to jump the gun or anything, but we really needed the room and everything was sitting on the garage floor..which we are tyring to prep to paint.

Our manuals

And we qiuckly figured out that it was a bear to get a lot of stuff up onto the loft, so we invested in a crane type operation. Here that is, and its great to have.

Anyways, thats got it covered :2thumbs:

btw thanks for all of the comments!

Man that is one nice shop. When is the "Open Shop" and Shop Tours event?

I am in Chattanooga every so often and would love to take a in person look at your shop.

IntrstlarOvrdrv- Great idea on the crane! Oh man how I wish I`d thought of that at my previous shop! I seem to think "gee, wish I`d thought of that" a *lot* when I see how you`re doing things

You`re sure not missing much are you

Nice to see somebody really thinking this stuff through :xyxthumbs

Heh heh, every time I see my shop`s textured ceiling I think about all the dust up there and how you did it right

A clean ceiling

Just watch out for asbestos popcorn ceiling....its very common with them. If you dont have it tested its considered "remodeling", no hazardous material removal needed. Just a tip

Grouse- Heh heh, if you saw my shop you`d know why that`s not an option

I could not resist my friend. Call it my quirky humor.

My dad was the `architect.` He even designed the raised truss for the loft and had it approved and built by the truss company. Dad may have been the one that put it to paper, but Mom was the driving force to make it `nice looking.`

Thanks for the compliments!

Really looking good...do you have more recent pics?

**IntrstlarOvrdrv** · 10-20-2006, 10:54 PM

Thanks, since you asked..

We got part of the floor coated, looks pretty good so far. We`re still cleaning the rest of the floor though, so hopefully this weekend it will get done. The work involved with coating the floor is about 90% cleaning the floor off.
