Awhile back ralph and i bought a new home together. In the last 4 months or so we have been remodeling the inside and also added an 12x 34' room to one side. Ralph did most of the work by himself, but I helped some. After he got the room added, we divided up into 2 sections. 12' x 12' I got for an office. Now heres what he did with his 12' x 22' this side is his regular tools until about 1/2 way down. the rest of that side is rock related equipment On this side is our 2 18" saws. We use kittly litter to dry the slabs after they are cut. so he built a table to hold the litter between the saws. all the slabs we have cut are along the whole wall, at the end he built me a lower counter for my projects. can you guess what this hole is? ?? I will give you a hint. We live in AZ. Its a swamp cooler. This makes the shop a pleasent place to work in our 110 degree heat. Now this is just the inside. Next time i will take pics of all the rough we have outside. ;D ty ralph and mary ann

I'll bet you are both gonna love the new Shop/Playhouse!!! It looks like you have plenty of room for all sorts of stuff too. Love the saw set-up with the kitty litter box. You don't even need to bend over to retrieve the slabs...great idea! Steve

Hmm, I must have missed the office pix, haha. What a great setup! I am completely torbernite. (I've been reading my NAS guide to rocks and minerals, sorry! But torbernite is pretty DARN GREEN!)
