That is going to be real nice Corey. It always is nice to have a special place you can call your own and do what you like in it. I have plans as well.





There is the concrete slab for my future shooting house, wood working shop extension, and gun shop. I want to bring the garage out 12 more feet by 24 feet long, join the two roofs, take out a back wall, add a wood stove, wall mounted air conditioner, and a sliding window that I can shoot across my range from. Then I can shoot rain or shine, hot or cold.

That workshop needs a LOT more clutter.

Seriously, lay down the law now. My bench seems to collect random household stuff that the wife can't find a better place to put.

Just throw a wood stove in there. I want to get a new ... bigger wood stove for the house. So the current one will heat the wood working shop and most of the garage. I miss a heated garage. And you can never have enough workshop room. I have a lot of other tools I want to get and set up in their own area. I want a laser guided router etching table... that would be so cool.

Corey will discover just how quickly these shops fill up. Tools, parts, paint, hardware, etc.. next thing you know.. you need more room. So when are you moving in Corey?

Hubby is right! Clutter. Every shooter needs clutter to be happy.

But don't worry. If you have empty space, clutter will come.

I have one the small heaters in there right now. going to buy a little better one when they go on sale.

I am not reloading at the moment. for my casting, projects that are coming up (small remodeling projects), and casting.

figure my lead pot should help heat when I am doing it.

my scope mounting and bore sighting will be done in the house more room for my laser bore sighter
