New Shop Plans

Drawings for the new shop have been developed. Site work (land clearing and ground-breaking) began the end of last November. Land clearing  (cutting trees and clearing brush) has progressed slowly over the Winter and continues as time and weather conditions allow. This is where you will find updates and progress photos as work continues. The new shop drawings are posted here, and building site photos will appear here as they are available. If you have any comments or suggestions, please drop me an email (contact page).

Land clearing progress on new shop site – 9 March 2010
June 16th, 2010 update: The land for the new shop has been cleared and was finshed over the past two days by a local logging company (Deane Young Logging Co.). The next three photos shows some of their handywork along with machine used to do the job. Now that the site has been cleared of trees, the ground work commences. First off – we have to begin removing the tree stumps.
