Good to hear it's healing well, but another 2 months before using it.. :frown: That has to be frustrating when you want to be working on your building. Hang in there..:biggthumpup:

Sending you more healing vibes. Can't wait to see your shop in full shape.

Thanks. Something has happened to my left hand along the way. I can barely do anything with it. I've got an appointment with the surgeon next week and we'll have to talk about that. I'm hoping he will release me to drive at that time. I'm tired of sitting at home all the time.

are you going to live in shop?

We haven't decided yet. We like the little house that we live in. For now the house in the shop will be a place for my wife to hang out while I'm working in the shop.

.... :dunno:

Still healing. Got a Dr appointment tomorrow. Probably a few more weeks before I can do anything. Still not allowed to drive.

"Still not allowed to drive."

That's what they told me after my first shoulder joint replacement.

I took it to mean that only applied to my manual shift cars. After all, lots of one armed folks out there driving slushboxes.

How’s that shoulder doing Freddie?

Thanks for asking. It's getting better, but not quite 100% yet. I've got a Dr appointment Thursday, and I'm expecting him to send me back to work on Monday. I'm going to try to put up a few boards in the shop today to get ready for the ceiling joists. Maybe soon I can post some updated pictures. I was able to get some LVP flooring pretty cheap for the living area. Someone local had a bunch that they didn't use and it was just enough to cover what I needed. I got a new Atlas 9000 pound 2 post lift. It's still on my trailer parked in the shop. I'm going to try to get the packing material off of it today to inspect it and see what it's going to take to get it unloaded.

:hmmm:, it's only three more day's Freddie, you've been diligent about letting this heal, hang in there...:biggthumpup:

I didn't have pictures yesterday for my other post.

I just wanted to mention Race Tools Direct. I ordered this Atlas lift from them and they were very good to work with. They delayed the shipping to allow my shoulder to heal some before I had to deal with this. On the day it was delivered it was pouring down rain. I had made arrangements with someone to have it unloaded with a fork lift. The guys were having a hard time getting it out of the truck and they turned it over, damaging the hydraulic unit. I was going to try to fix it myself since it wasn't the fault of the truck driver or Race Tools Direct. When I couldn't find the parts that I needed I contacted Race Tools Direct to see if they could get the parts for me. Instead of getting me the parts, they sent me another complete hydraulic unit, and they paid the shipping both ways! If you are looking for a lift I recommend checking with Race Tools Direct. https://racetoolsdirect.com/?gad_sou...saAmcvEALw_wcB

I wish I had more to report, but work on the shop is going very slow. I finally have air conditioning (now that summer is almost over). Now I have to wait on the plumber to come back and run gas lines to the units. I did realize that I hadn't posted pictures of the living area lately. I'll try to get that done soon.

I was wondering about your shop. Thanks for the update.

I like those blocks you set your units on. Look good.👍

Thanks. I wanted to get the units up off of the ground so grass wouldn't get into them when mowing, and water wouldn't get into them when it rained really hard. It took me a little while to build them and get the concrete in them. That's not my kind of work.

I don't think I posted any pictures of the apartment after getting the OSB on top and on the shop side wall. I'm not a carpenter, but I think it turned out alright. Most of the plumbing is done, but I still have a lot of wiring to do and then insulation and drywall.

Looks great!
