It certainly is, I was back at work today but left wife and son to clear the garden a little so I could move the digger out of the way which allowed me to take a better picture.
I just thought too this weekend I am going to have a use for my unfinished (as in never got round to painting it  :doh:) treadle hammer which I have never shown on this forum, if I am not too shattered after work tomorrow I will drag it out to show you guys.

That's looking real nice, it's gonna be a good solid 'shop  :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Heres the hammer in all its rusty glory, I calculated the block of steel weights about 21kg,
second 2 pics show a before and after pic on a scrap of the tin cladding.
Needs its joints oiling as its a little lethargic in its movement.

Another weekend of work and window are in, doors are on and its secure now  :headbang: ,no more having to move all my tools back into the house every night. Armoured cable is now ordered, so need to dig the trench to lay it now.
Had a slight problem with the roof, I have as I have grown older gained a fear of heights and when I was securing the panels on the left side the ladder wobbled a little and I couldnt get back up it so I figured we havent had bad winds for a while it should be ok until weekend when mate can do it for me. Thursday wife calls me "get home roof is moving" end panel had flipped over  :doh: luckily the damage was not much and will be covered when i put the ridges on.

That's looking really nice, I like the windows to bring in the natural light, but are you worried about the contents of your workshop being on view?
