Roofing & soffits are done - All windows & doors are in, so the snow now stays outside. I have not spent much time out there as I got sick on New Years day - yup Covid. Doing fine but still recovering.
Everything I am having the contractor do is done inside, when he gets back from Florida next week he will do the siding. My electrician put the ceiling lights in the shop half today, when he finishes up the bay side next week it will be time for me to start the insulation and drywall for the ceiling. After I get that finished I will hang the heater and then the plumber can come back to finish the plumbing & rough in's. All things considered, things are going very well. |

PS, the only thing I would have different is a full set of steps Up. Like in the corner. Under the steps is a great place for the fridge. The upper storage will be used a lot. Mark

Mark I pulled out my cheap attic steps and put in a set from fast stairs .com it turned the attic storage into a useful second floor. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Here’s a poor shot of the stairs and my start at the attic conversion. Attached image(s) |

Are all the bikes yours or do you have a business starting? |

Are all the bikes yours or do you have a business starting? They are mine. Mostly my old bikes. All my road and track bikes (and a couple more) are inside my house. I used to manage a bike shop but never had a good space of my own to work on my bikes. The park double arm stand was from a bike shop that closed up. It has a 100lb metal base. I have a wheel truing stand that will mount to a bench and then I should be in business. The floor is great. It clicked together in about an hour. I put some weed block fabric underneath to quiet it down on the wood floor. It was $2.39 sq/ft from garagefloorllc.com shipping included. |
