    I was very worried, and surprised when I saw the clamps in the trailer. But my faith in you Thomas was confirmed when you said he was going to sort, and then use them :).

    The Concrete Underground

    Loving all the detail :). Always been fascinated by building work since I was a small child watching the rest of the houses in my road being built.

    Thomas I am yet again disappointed in the standard of your work. I was expecting you to let the stainless into the floor and make it match the tiles so to the untrained eye (the kind that wouldn't see the wonky switch) you wouldn't be able to notice the difference! I feel let down, I expected...

    Track.One's Shop Build

    WOW. What a work ethic. Not many people in the world possess that. I wish you all the best. Only a few years older than me :).

    What a great looking building!! Lots of love for that 245, its gorgous! Squarbacks are great too, have a big VW soft spot.

    The Concrete Underground

    What a great location!! Loving all the concrete work :). Can't wait for more. It seems strange to see a US home put together without any wood :bounce:

    Again, interesting Thomas.... what you refer to as planer or thickness planer. Is what I would call a thicknesser :) I maybe wrong here but like you I've learnt the names from those who taught me.

    Interesting that you call that a jointer Thomas, that to us would be a planer!

    2 car garage in south west England

    Subscribed! Its great to see a build on here that is far more achievable... all the big barns etc you see of the US builds are amazing but I have no hope of having one that big for years, probably ever! Can't wait to see how this goes :D

    Thomas, Two places so far away from each other and yet so similar!! Their website is: http://www.beaulieu.co.uk/ As well as the museum there is a lovely old house and the village of Beaulieu is lovely too. Please let me know if/when you come over... it would be a great place to meet up! Ross

    Ditto that! Thomas you just have a way of putting things across which is just a pleasure to read. Anyway, all of it is related to the 'shop(s) in some way or another. Keep up the work :)

    Fascinating story again Thomas!! There used to be an old sawmill in my village, but it was knocked down about 15/16 years ago. Sadly I didn't have the interest I do now or I would have loved a poke around it :(

    On the one hand I'm surprised Thomas hasn't done that with one bench on castors... but I'm sure he has something up his sleeve! (must be a big sleeve!!)
