Poured foundation and .learned how to lay cinder blocks when my boiler went out in the house I had them put a zone in for my work shop, 70 degrees all the time

Been enjoying it for 50 years

Good luck on your project I'll be following
Thanks Jim, I've been watching your blazer build for almost as long as I've been on the site! Sorry to hear about your son.

I wish I had built my shop earlier but I don't know how much I would have really used it. Before I retired I worked quite a bit and was always on call 24/7. It was a relief to finally be able to retire, no more phone calls at 2:30 in the morning! Now the shop is my M-F 9:00-6:00.

I'll try your method on the second fender, hopefully it's easier!
