Tim.....beautiful, nothing like having a nice place to work in. You realize, of course, that the quality of the guns that come
out of this shop will have to equal it's surroundings............Don

Looks like you have alot of light on one end and the room looks well lit. Do you have more windows or the combination of electric and light colored walls? Smylee

Hi Tim,
Looks great. Where is it in your house? It looks like an attic.

My shop was... the kitchen table......... hence, my wife suggested that this bonus room over the garage be converted to a shop.

Nice looking floor and should work out well as a shop.

Don, That is " genuine" top nailed (with square cut nails) wideplank yellow southern pine!!! 6', 8' 10" and 12" wide planks 3/4" thick tongue and groove.... The best there is! We can get some shipped up to PA if you want it??? ... I been looking at where I might sneak the recliner in there....
My biggest decision left is whether to bolt the workbench to the wall or try to weight the bottom down?
