I started the build right after Halloween. Concrete guy told me 2 weeks. Well 3 months later and I finally had the foundation in. December was very cold here, not good for a concrete pour. Frammer also late on getting started, but it is now starting to take shape.
Plus I woke up this morning to a couple of inches of snow. :eyecrazy:
Here is a few pics of the build.

Size is 24 x 32. I wanted to go bigger, but the septic tank is 5' behind the foundation. Plus I'm 8' from the side of my property line. It will have to do, as I have a 2 1/2 attached to the house. Walls are 10' studs, and with the plates and 6" raised block, I have 11' to the ceiling. I have also put in vaulted trusses which give me another 3' in the center. Plenty for my planned lift. Love this site and all the info.

Are you going to be putting a Donzi in there?

Sold the Donzi before the move to IL.

Nice tunnel hull... Blown, I'm guessing triple digits?
