Very cool. Do you guys do a lot of stucco jobs up there? There isn't as much call for it down here because of stress cracking when the weather turns cold.
I'm looking at Thurgoods as well. The wedge sole ones are super comfortable right out of the box. I had always bought Red Wings before. But the pair I have now are Chinese made (didn't know any better at the time of purchase) I've had them for a few years & they like I've got 2 bricks for feet.
That's funny my I have that exact same shelf. It was a part of my mother-in-law's waterbed. I took it all apart and made some shelves for over my workbench.
