Outstanding job, Cody.  What a great project for you and your wife to complete. 

Can't wait to see the photo's after you "move in".

I'm sure Andy's giving you two big thumbs up too!

**** Finished photos on Page 18 ****




My wife let me build a new shop.  We designed some neat features (propane tiki torches, outdoor big screen TV and a propane fire pit) so I'm sure that helped, but I'm so excited to have more space!

My wife and I started building it 34 days ago and tomorrow morning we'll be putting the slab down.  Doing the work ourselves is so rewarding.

Great looking shop!
Your work looks better than some of the projects we have going down here in Texas.
I have 38 years in construction and wish I could get the subs to do work that looks like yours.

I've been away from the forum for a few months due to health issues.  Thought I'd catch up today.  Like others have said.  WOW! and that doesn't even do it justice.  Outstanding Craftsmanship my friend.  :ylsuper:  That shop/man cave is nicer than my house!   :drool:  Well Done! :cheers:

So I'm just going to say what everyone else is thinking... can we be friends?!?

Just looked through the whole thread, absolutely amazing.  Depressing too though because I doubt I'll ever have one like it

Friends?  Best friends forever!  I'm in.   :drunk:  You have the beer, right?   ;)

Mark, my arm is healing good so far.  Still in a limited movement arm cast, but it's getting better everyday.  Thanks for asking!

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

I gotta take some new ones.  Might wait until I get the new game in.  Building a 1/4 mile scale hot wheels track that has an automated launching and timing system.  Can't wait to have some fun tournaments.   :2thumbs:

I still have a bunch of that tucked away in boxes in the basement somewhere...... I should dig it out sometime. It was fun!
