Excellent finish out.  I'll bet it smells as good as it looks with all that freshly sawn spruce.   Years ago I built a small stand alone shed (nothing special) and for a couple weeks afterward I would hang out in the evenings with an AM radio tuned to a country station, a cooler of beers, and just take in the smell of the freshly cut wood.   I wouldn't be surprised if you were doing the same.  :-) 

Thanks for the update.

Edit: On the other hand, a shop named "Black Dogg" is probably listening to a classic rock station however.  :-)

Thank you all for the kind comments! Yes, it's been a while in the making, but I finally have the set-up that I've always wanted.

georgiapine85: The view is great, you are right about that. I'm hoping the wildlife will get used to me being there (now that I have moved to the Cabin permanently) and looking forward to seeing some deer or turkeys mosey by while I'm working :).

cseeger: The spruce doesn't smell much anymore; it was sawn in May of last year and has spent its time drying in the Cabin, so it could shrink before I nailed up. But while it was sitting in the stack in the living room it smelled good. And yes, it's country tunes for me (mostly, sometimes some oldies, too). The name Black Dogg is because I like black dogs (Labs in particular). See my other post here: 

 

Black Dogg

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?

Forbid it, Almighty God!

I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

It just looks like paradise.

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.

From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Thanks, bikermutt!

It is paradise, considering the set-up I had in my apartments, where everything was crammed together and I only had small windows. The best days here are in the winter when it's a snowy day and I can sit and carve while looking at the falling flakes. Doesn't get much better than that!
