Thanks Mike! It's been a project of its own. Three years ago it was a "barn" with a 20' x 20' hole cut in the side and corrals inside. No power either.

We all would love a place like that to work in but the heat bill in the winter would kill me. Lucky Dog
Thanks Frankie! I enclosed that loft I built for the wife and made my little workshop under there. It's insulated to the hilt and I've got a small baseboard heater on a t-stat to keep it from freezing. I made the slider door big enough to get projects in and out. I can take the chill off pretty quickly and work on most things I need to. Got a computer and tunes in there too. The rest of the shop is a wood-stove affair.

Block with 220. Reprime. Wetsand with 400 on a block. Spray color. Drink and giggle.

How the heck did you get Boppa's done so fast doing all that!? What did you use for filler? I got some stuff called Half Time from Napa. They said its their most popular. It is some tuff sanding tho! I've been working on the doors lately and will get those primered first. If everything looks good, I'm golden. If it looks bad then I've got my work cut out for me!
