As some of you may know, Candace and I bought a place in May. I told her when we were shopping that it had to have a building on site that would be suitable for my shop. Well...here are a few pics. The shop is 24' X 24' with 10'6" ceilings. I have 14, 4' flourescent fixtures with daybright tubes. You'll notice there are no windows which I would like to have somedays, but really like the fact that people that stop in can't snoop through them to see what's inside for them to steal if they are so inclined!! My cutting table is 8 X 8 and has substantial storage underneath, including a set of blueprint/map drawers for patterns.Broken Horn001.JPGBroken Horn002.JPG

Hi Elton,

Lucky you! this is a really coool workshop! if it was mine, I would be glued on my sit here forever LOL. I hope you get your windows someday!! When using rubber cement and all sorts of finishes, you would want these done where there is lots and lotsa ventilation! :)

Elton,

Looks like lots of room. I see you have the cushioned floor squares too. It only took me about 4 years to get mine done. Shop is looking good, and so is the work coming out of it. An eight by eight table is only a dream, WOW. Greet Candace,

Elton,

Gorgeous shop. Glad you are all moved in and up and running. I did notice that the name on the pictures is Broken Horn. If that is what you are calling your saddlery, you might have to buy all your trees second hand... :)

Looks real good Elton, Glad to see you have it set up. Where are you gonna put your metal working shop now? I really like how your tool racks turned out. Looks good all the way around.
