East bound and down!

The annoying part is that it's brutally expensive to barge over a ciment truck, so it's going to be mixed at the top of the driveway. At least my neighbor has a decent-sized mixer. But it still comes out to at least 3 yards of concrete.

Couldn't you bring over 3 yards of slow cure in half yard tubs? It's just an apron......

My experience in Sk., says that unless you have a home big enough to hide from each other in the winter, the spring news is gonna be full of yer life history!

In all seriousness, being trapped in the same room, for six months, as the "love of your life", is gonna change that...

This is based on almost eight years living in Moose jaw!

Not at all, just get Swmbo several paying jobs. then she will be too tired to bother you, and makes enough money to support your tool habits.

Having been in the Military and watching lot of guys that tried that route, see their Ex head down the road with all her income, and half his, I'm more prone to just having enough corners that you don't have to cross paths 'all day, every day' unless it suits you both!

Q4 2023 update:

The wood shop exterior is finished minus the eavestroughs (hopefully soon). I did the siding/soffit/facia myself (after doing the house/addition as well).






Just wrapping up the interior (1/2" plywood) and then final inspections and MOVING DAY!



Heating will be electric (primary) and a small pellet stove (our 4th!) for more comfortable/cost-effective heating when in use.



Moving day will be sweet as this is 520 sq ft of wood shop/storage. The 10' ceilings will allow for mezzanines for storage so i'm hoping this translates to much needed usable space in the metal shop.

Congratulations, you've been busy getting things done, must be what happens when one spends less time hanging with us. ...... Hey, a quick question, in the third picture, way back in the background....... Is that a hill?

 

[kevin.decelles]

that is my closest neighbour, about a mile away. They have a shelter belt of trees surrounding the place and a barn is on a slight hill to the right.

Ahh nice, if it were not for the snow on the ground that I see I'd say that must be heaven. It was 14 above here today but I can see my neighbors out any window

Nice shop Kevin! wow.

Good luck on your move. I see you have a spare for almost every tool.
