Well, we’re almost there. The new shop is pretty much set up. It will undoubtedly change as time goes on, but it’s just about ready for work

 

 

The bench is 16 ft.

Looking good Mr.C! I bet you will be taking on crazy projects any time now 🙂

EEtwidgetMember since Dec 2013

I like it! Very clean… For now. 🙂

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Nice Travis! Wicked happy for you! My shop is a LITTLE bit smaller! I’m seeing some pretty awesome projects coming

RedSionnachMember since Aug 2013

Looks good. Much roomier than mine.

regopitMember since Feb 2013

Looking good Conductor but, we all know that after the first project those tool all hung up nice & neat will be in a pile somewhere.

Harold WrayMember since Jun 2013

Looks so clean and lots of space. Is that a sandblaster in the back that someone is using?

No Sir, Conductor is OCD about tools returning to their proper, pre-determined, carefully selected, location.

After every project tools are cleaned, lubed if needed, and put away. If you see errant hand tools lying on my bench for more than a day or so rest assured that I have died and Conductor Jr. Has taken over.

No matter what it will never be big enough

crazyandyMember since Feb 2013

Conductor I am jealous if you! Haha

regopitMember since Feb 2013

That is very tempting. I’m heating with Kerosene at the moment but man, what a pain in the ass. It’s running about $30 a week, but I could do a little better if I was worried about it. The real problem is that most filling stations don’t carry Kerosene anymore. I pass 3 stations getting to the 1 that has it.

How close are you to Martinsburg, WV?

Awesome! 4″ of snow on the ground, so in the morning I’ll do a little plowing and pull the kids around on their sleds.

KurtSMember since Jan 2014

Beautiful shop!

Conductor562Member since Nov 2011

Kurt: Thanks and welcome to the forum!

Chase: I felt like I needed one today. Pulled the kids around for a couple hours @ 15 degrees.

Burrrrrrr!

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Hahahahaha Travis! 25 below yesterday!!! My crafstman blower deck was frozen solid. I had to push and pull the chute to aim the snow all day.

firefighter4187Member since Mar 2013

You northerners and your cold weather…….

Conductor562Member since Nov 2011

-25! Jesus H. Christ that’s cold. We don’t get that kind of cold here. We do occasionally get below 0, but it’s pretty unusual.

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Yeah. I do t like to admit it but my nips were hard. Hahahahahahaha

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Hahahahahaha oh yeah

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Here’s the recent snow. Not too much. Check out the sticker in my new trucks window! For snow we only got about ten inches. But man it was freezing cold and the snow was very fluffy so driving was a complete abortion, four wheel drive or not.

DR99Member since Nov 2012

Holy crap teleported to Australia. I don’t know why this forum likes to flip peoples pictures. Conductor had the same issue

NicholasShetleyMember since Nov 2013

The wind chill is supposed to be -25 Monday. The high is supposed to be 0.

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Hey DR, I’d appreciate a little more sensitivity to the issue, my house actually is upside down!!’ 😀

firefighter4187Member since Mar 2013

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Thanks Chase, the truck is sweeeeeeeeeeeet. You can see my new chimney that I installed for the pellet stove on the front side of the houses new cruiser this year. Still rear wheel drive and still a BLAST to drive in snow storms…Yukka, Yukka. Yukka.

Conductor562Member since Nov 2011

Took those pics with an iPhone didn’t you? If so, whenever you’re taking a pic to put online hold your phone with the home button on the right. It’ll look sideways until you post it online, then it will turn out right.

I spend almost 2 weeks playing phone tag with Apple about it. They also advised me to try out 3rd party cameras, but I never fooled with that. I just hold the home button on the right.

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Thanks Travis, I actually used my ipad 4 so yeah I imagine it’s the same problem. Should stayed android!

Harold WrayMember since Jun 2013

Nice looking house Chris!  Looks like you got a good size shed/building there.  Hope it’s heated.  Looks FREAKING COLD there!  

regopitMember since Feb 2013

Thank god for a minute I thought that I would have to stop drinking

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

Thanks Harold, no heat though. When I get my garage, that WILL be heated! Regopit….seriously?!?!?!?! Why stop, push harder there boy!!!! If you push through everything will appear right side up!

NicholasShetleyMember since Nov 2013

If he pushes harder the mouse will break.
