I just had to start my gloat now. I have been in China, doing good work for my company and the people of China so my wife thought she would get going on my new workshop while I was gone. I return in June so I get the fun of finishing it up. The new workshop footprint is 50 x 60 with porches in each side. The walls will be made by using Texas Sandstone landscape blocks that are 2ft x 2ft x 6ft. Each block weighs 2 tons! It will have 12 ft walls and the peak of the roof will be 24 feet. The floor workspace is 30 x 56. the floor will be made from a floating metal truss system with a 3 inch concrete slab on top. this will allow me to put all my vacuum, air and electrical systems under the floor and still have access in case I redesign in the future. Here are some pictures of the foundation pour that happened yesterday. I will post update as major steps occur.
