    Did the workshop last fall (the room with the stove in it) and the garage portion is just finished-you can still smell the paint!

    Haven't laid it out for the woodshop tools yet though.

    Thought that maybe I present a little recital for you guys!

    The purpose of insulating and finishing the garage portion was to expand the workshop area without giving up any of the space used for storage for domestic things. (translates into garage is too small)
