12X40 SHOP ADDITION ALMOST COMPLETE

ADDED TWO FLOOD LIGHTS SO I COULD MILL AT NIGHT WHEN THE TEMPS ARE A LITTLE BETTER. JUST TO THE RIGHT OF THE LIGHT YOU CAN SEE A ROUND SPEAKER... GOTTA HAVE TUNES.


















ALMOST GOT FLOOR DONE. 1-1/4" POPLAR RANDOM LENGTHS(FROM LIMBS ETC)




















12' END WALL FROM THE INSIDE. NO NEED TO EDGE THE PURLINS.... JUST SPLIT DOWN THE MIDDLE AND NAIL UP. THIS WALL WAS PUT UP STRAIGHT OF THE MILL WITH NO DRYING....SOAKING WET WOOD... SEEMS TO BE O.K.


















OUTSIDE OF SAME WALL BUT IT WAS AT NIGHT SO PIC NOT THAT GREAT.

19" clear pine


19"x8' pine loaded up and ready to go.














end view of same.















19" wide clear pine, no knots anywhere, not even at the heart. got 1 - 3" board, 1 -2" board and 8 - 1" boards. edged down to 12" wide.
i am going to use the 3" for blocking in between the joist on the curved bridge walkway.

curved log bridge


the spillway area. the pvc pipe is the over flow but when we get frog stanglers water is up to the top of the boards. you can barely see the 4x4's right above the pipe that i will set the joist on.









just got this cut and on the bed of the sawmill. with the staight part cut off it is about 12' long and will be a bugger to get cut.
i'm going to cut 3" slices to use as joist for an an arched walkway over the spillway at my pond.
it is tulip poplar about 24" diameter.
