I can't even tell you guys how envious I am of your huge workshops. I don't know what I'm gonna do when I get the emp finished.

Thomas, it's looking great. Is that driveway long enough for a take-off run?

Thomas,

That is an awesome job. Does it have a restroom in it too?

That is cool!

What is the side structure? I know it HAS to be a compressor room, but was that the intention from the onset?

Looks GREAT!

Thanks!

The side room is 10x12' - it is going to be the "office" - computer, etc in there ... along with books and lots of airplane pics.

It actually does have a bathroom, but it is so old that there is no water line out there any more. The soil pipe is still there. I took the toilet out and double insulated that room and am going to use it as a compressor room. Also has an attic accessed via a large stairway for storage.

The building is probably >60 years old - so old that the lumber used to build it is not standard dimensions. It is VERY solid, very dry and well built. Can't wait to get the RV over there!
