My Shop for the past 20 years

My wife didn't like that my shop was 12 miles away from the house. So she paid the have a shop built next to the house out of her own money. It is 36x60 foot shop with 12 foot walls and a 16x36 foot loft. Since it was going to be next to the house she wanted it to match the house also.
Here is a video timeline of the shop:

All of those projects were in the shop except the Olds and the Merc. Lots more I failed to take pictures.
