This will become Rusty Blades very own Woodshop!
Now that spring has finally arrived and is in full bloom, the studio and woodshop are getting put together once again with renewed enthusiasm! Time, money, and weather have all proven to be big challenges and obstacles to overcome in order to get these projects up and running. With a bit of luck—and perhaps a sprinkle of good weather—the studio will be enclosed first, and shortly after, we'll get the woodshop snugly under a roof! All of the random stuff laying around will eventually transform into the structures we need, and whatever is left over will either be creatively repurposed into wood projects, generously given to others who can actually use the material, or regretfully taken to the landfill, where, let’s be honest, some of this stuff was always destined to end up. Yes, most of these creative projects are being built with material that was on its way to be thrown away, which is why much of the metal won’t actually match when this eclectic masterpiece is finally completed.
This may look like a mess, because it is!
The dirt humps in the foreground, are topsoil from another project many years ago.
The plastic sided shed in the background is full of project lumber awaiting the completion of this woodshop.
Days 1,2, and 3. Mid 80's and nice!
It seems to be coming along nicely.
Once the back is enclosed, the small shed will be torn down to become the woodshop!
Day 4 thru 7. BIG improvement!
It's much taller than I thought it would be.
That little shed is full of doors, windows and flooring for the new buildings!
Day 8 and 9 Siding is started and the roof is ON!
When building with used metal, one can't be too picky. It will look much better after the top is on.
With the roof so high up, you can only tell it's on from the underside. And yes, I had to hire it done, I'm not a climber.
Day 12 and progress has stopped
It's enclosed. The open spot is for the shipping area.
Waiting for warmer weather!
