After years of various usernames with no posts, I suppose I owe a hello since again I find myself here looking for good info from good folks who have BTDT.
I'm nearly 20 years into a job designing/fabricating/prototyping various small machines for automation. I've been lucky enough to manage doing that most of those years from my own garage in suburbia. I've got a humble collection of machines and tools - nothing fancy & no CNC.
Last summer, seizing market opportunity, I pulled out of the city and moved the family and my shop to our shangri la in the Colorado mountains. Long story short, and surely much to the appeal of the GJ crowd, the new digs reside in a 30x45x16 Morton. To get operational before winter hit, I made a couple local friends and built out one corner I could easily heat. It's still a work in progress as it's only been 4 months in my possession but chips have been flying since the week after Thanksgiving.
26' truck for scale
Heat-able space built
Inside with the bare-minimum in place for operations to resume.
Ran out of warm days to pre-paint OSB, hence the blue tarp wallpaper.
