New Landcruiser Shop

[NicksFJ40]

New shop is moving along, waiting on drains and radiant heat plumbing before concrete.

Weird looking Land Cruiser ya got there...

Looks like the Fummings is getting the prep work done for the future inhabitants!

Good looking structure, I like the windows above the doors for the natural light to come in.

Looks great! Congrats on the new shop.

I hate shed roofs, but yours looks good. Windows above the doors seem to make it look non shedy (if that's even a word). I like that you did proper beam sizing. That should last for generations...

Looks like a great shop to me!

At the time I took the pic, my 80 was still in California. The outside will match the house. It's tall enough for a lift which will go on the right side. Here are some proper pics.

Thank you
Nick

The outside will match the house.

Good to see that. With the style of the old barn beside it, I'd hate to see vinyl or sheet metal siding on that.

What tires on the 80?

The old mule barn is pretty cool, in the back of the house is the saloon/brothel from the town of Sunlight from the 1800.

Thank you
Nick

Your house exterior looks awesome.

 

[NicksFJ40]

Thank you, siding and the concrete for the shop floor will be done next week. Heating and septic are in.

 

[Ambrew]

That's a nice shop! Huge!

 

[ferg]

Wet sump - good idea!

 

[bkfj40]

is there a reason you didn't overlap your welded wire fabric more? In some places, it looks like it is butted up against each other. Are you pouring fibermesh concrete?

 

[PAToyota]

That looks to be just to hold the radiant tubing in place. The reinforcing would actually go over that.

[NicksFJ40]

The mesh is to tie rap the the radiant heating in place. Rebar went above it. Concrete is in, part of the siding and the electrician will be here the rest of the week.

Thank you
Nick

Nice work! Good pre-planning for the lift with the thickened areas. Guys are even hard hats! Safety first!

 

[NicksFJ40]

Ha ha, yah, the floor came out nice. Been waiting a week for the electrical inspector to appear before they can move forward.
