What's he got, I know he referred to it as one of his dream cars.
Just spent a few hours out there. I don't fancy posting pictures just yet. I am moving stuff back in its a right old mess!! Any that's me done for the day off to watch the second hobbit film with some friends. Then back to ours for some stew and dumplings 
This year has started out great 
I usual would fall in a bucket of tits and come out sucking my thumb!!
But nearly all of equipment has been sourced for my workshop. A lovely Dr hear at work has just offered me her late father in laws old lathe at a great price.
All i need now is a tig welder anyone??

O and get all the wiring done compressor running roof finished stone work finished o lord it's a long list!!!Its been a while since i have posted any pictures. Things are coming along i have the inside all painted with lime wash (horrible soul destroying job) Took ages to build up layers of the stuff to get a white finish. All sockets and and wall lights are up just need the lights off Lux. I will be cabling this week/weekend for my mate who is an electrician to come connect up soon. Air line is in and run around the workshop with 3 outlets for easy connection. I have cables and pipes laying across floors!! The lathe is in just waiting on pay day so i can go and buy my milling machine bench drill and chop saw.
Forum calender in pride of place next to a strut brace.
Sofa in the man cave a friend was throwing it out. Gave it a quick clean and its just right. Also home made coffee table made out of off cuts.
So my bench with cabinets tool board bench grinder with sanding belt and a big vice. I will in the summer spray all the cabinets and tool boxes the same colour. It will be good practice for the car.
And the lathe fantastic little machine. Old but works great very little back lash (movement where you don't want it) Came with chucks tools the lot
It needs a good clean and oil up that's all.
Hope you like and i will hopefully have some material and other machines in and running soon.

Oh my. I love it.
I'm now just sitting here depressed and jealous.
Although mildly happy I have the space to extend my garage, fit a pitch roof and achieve something similar :lol:
Cracking work mate, looks like such a brilliant space for someone with interests such as you and I
