The Blacksmith Shop

Posted by 141drew Feb 8, 2013 at 9:47 AM and filed under Featured Spaces

My neighbor has what just might be the best outfitted blacksmith shop in the country. Inside it contains tools used to build the Golden Gate Bridge in 1933, power hammers larger than my house, huge forges, and all kinds of other manly and beautiful looking tools. Of course, it’s all protected by an amazing building as well… But somehow, the whole package isn’t nearly as cool as this.

That build and the tools in it are super nice and I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but if that building were here in the SE termites would get in that bottom 2 x 4, go into the rest of the wood, and collapse the building. If it's made from treated lumber it should be ok.
