You can tell the weather is taking a dump around the country, everybody is sitting in the house where it is warm looking at ****.

Well here is a few of the things I have been working on.

First I got a new shop, it's a 30*50 pole barn But it is 24 degrees out and I can't afford to heat the darn thing.


So I set out to build me a room that I could heat and work in. Came up with a 25'*12' room with 8' ceilings. I used 2*10's on 16" for the roof with 3/4 strand board so I could store heavy stuff up top and out of the way.



Picked up a cheap electric hoist from Harbor Freight and made me a HMT crain.


And here is a badly stitched photo of the inside


Here are a couple of the things I have done recently

sr20 mani


Start of an intake and manifold for a toyota 3tc


And a manifold for a ford 2.3turbo that I am swapping into a 1st gen rx-7





And my new puppies
Wife seen somebody dumping them on her way home form work. So she brought them home. So far great dogs. Vet says they are about 12 weeks old now. Guess they became more than the owner wanted, but I have a few acres and I wrapped it in invisble fence. Works great.

i need a barn like that... some parts of my garage the ceiling is as low as 6 foot... hit my head countless times after standing up working on something...

Labs are great dogs - we have 2. Big paws on those two, you are probably going to have 80-90lb brutes there in 6 months.

im getting ready to start my "pole barn" (or so the county will think) its going to be 24*36 with 12 ft to the bottom of the rafters with a 12 on 12 pitch roof so i can build an up stairs later. it will eventually be insulated and heated with a gangster *** wood stove. im getting all the wood for free from a buddie that has his own saw mill and my dads getting me a hella deal on some steel for the roof and the siding with be gum should be really nice when im all done with it i hope to be done my feb weather permiting cant wait

cord of wood = 1.9m btu's, whereas the equilivent in propane is like 23,700 btu's or some ----. get a few heat extractors, that ---- is rated at like 25,000 btu's each, itll really pump heat out

Shop looks awesome, and so does the build.

If you don't mind me asking, about how much did it cost you to get the pad poured? I want a shop so bad. Working on a 30 degree incline is getting old.
