Pictures of the new digs. Its a bit dark but thats cause I need to put some more lighting in.

And the most important thing about this (temporary) workshop ... look in the background

Now I can eat and drink while working on the RV

awesome! i don't think there's any reason that this setup needs to be "temporary"!!

I think space will become a problem further down the road.

WHOA! Cah-peting!!!

Antony's workshop is cahpetted too! I think it is a trend towards ergonomics and comfort in the workplace.

I like the powder coating oven and the beer/proseal fridge!

Nice job there, fella!

The ivy is very decorative too!

We weren't big on the carpet when we first moved in but decided to leave it as it will be great on the feet when working.

As for the ivy, its covering the pipe to runs to one of our wells.

LOOKS GREAT SPIKE!!! Holy first class workspace! WOOHOO!

Hey has anyone else tried the carpet? I'm struggling with the hard concrete floor thinking that it will just beat my feet to death over the next few years. A pad and some carpet might be a great investment...and a new vacuum cleaner! Wifey didn't even say anything the last time I tried to bring HER fancy vacuum down to the shop. She just looked at me and sent one of those telepathinc messages -> "...you not seriously even thinking about what I think you're thinking about." ...stopped me DEAD in my tracks!

That's what I would call "living" the experience. Looks comfy. The red carpet is a nice touch.

I'm still trying to figure out what's plugged into the wall outlet in the third picture. Looks aviationish (if that's a word).
