Building the violin project I posted was the hardest project but this is by far the biggest and longest project I have ever undertaken. I started building this garage / workshop 15 years ago after visiting England.
It has been an on again off again affair. I have collected and hand laid all the stone and the stone is 14 inches thick laid against a 6" insulated stud wall. The foundation is double 12" block to make the 24" wall thickness. In the past few years I've hired a high school age kid to mix mortar and keep me supplied with rock when I am on the scaffolding. It is about one month from completion and I have plans to finish it in June. It has been usable from the beginning but The stonework has taken a while.
