Now that my car is (mostly) done, I need to get my shop in order. Since I've moved in, it's just been kinda haphazard. Also, when I came home from the office in March, we were working from home for 2 weeks. It's now been 6 months so it was time to figure out a more permanent solution as my work station was sitting in the middle of my garage floor. So, having a sawmill and a few pine logs, I got to work:
I forgot to take more pics as I built, but here's the idea - true 2x8 joists with hangers and a 5x6 post. The stair stringers are 1.5" x 10" with 24" wide treads.
So where does that leave me?
- I ran out of screws on the stairs, need to add hand rails and more screws into the treads.
- add more insulation
- move the window unit up to the office somehow
My next major financial goal is to buy a 2 post lift. It will go in front of my toolbox, next to where the car is currently parked.
Minor goals are to start the bathroom and get it operational - not expensive, but time consuming. Plumbing, walls, light, flooring, etc.
Under my 'office' is currently crammed with stuff that I intend to find a better home for and that will have a table and chairs as a hangout area.
My distant goal is to have a '67 coupe to turn into an auto X project. I have a 351 short block already, but it's on the back burner until I get the shop closer to finished.
I know it's not really fox related, but that's what I'm going to be up to for a bit.
The fox had a misfire which ended up being burnt plug wires, so I ordered some more. the radiator has a pin hole that I need to find and get fixed. I also have an electric fan to install. Maybe soon!
