Recommended Posts

LOL....well if it wouldnt take all weekend to get here this could be a plan! :yes:

Im really glad for you that you are getting such wonderful spaces to build in....of course I can see through this diabolical scheme of yours.....with all of the building stuff out of the house you will now have more room for Displaying those finished houses! ;)

and no excuses for not building! :D

Pictures at last!

Here's the beginning of the foundation. Jimmy decided to angle this workshop so that I could view the driveway from the window.

Then he started framing it in. I told him when he got to this point that he should go ahead and put the windows in so that they could be shut to keep the cold out, LOL! All of this was done in one day.

The second day he put up walls and windows and the roof and the door.

The third day he started building decks and putting on trim.

Its so nice to have a handy man around. But I believe looking at that trim, that Jimmy is enjoying building a BIG dollhouse. Looking good, by next weekend at this rate you will be ready to move in.

BTW, we all know how easily confused I am, but looking at the first picture of the 2nd day, I thought WOW she's getting 2 doors, then was totally confused to see a window in its place in the 2nd pic. Looked at the 3rd pic to see if he pieced the wood. and only then did the light bulb come on and I realized in the 1st pic that the door was propped against the window opening.

I'm slow but sure. :thumb:

Yes, he is quick isn't he Nutti! He's surprised me with how quick this one has gone. Yes, we insulate and sheetrock the insides too.

I am glad that Dean is getting going on your shop! You will LOVE having your own space to work in!

Yep, he says a dollhouse workshop has to look like a dollhouse. I don't know why.

I want a workshop too! But the one I want is a double-wide mobile home - it would look great next to the house under the balcony!

Wolfie

Hmmm.... You can get some good square footage with that, with lots of rooms for various projects! I like it!
