Bendita Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I'm getting so close to coming back to my scroll saw work its scary. I purchased this tiny place in Alberta and found there just was no room for my tools or for me to work, unlike Mexico where I just worked outside most the time. So I tossed the idea around for an addition on the house then a garage and a workshop etc etc well they all were way more then my budget would allow then I came up with this brilliant Idea why not pick up one of those portable offices/lunchroom /first aid shack so I browsed around and located one last week for a reasonably sum so I took delivery today now just get things organized and a little renovating and we'll be set. Note the table folds down into a bed, pretty well a must when you get accustomed to siestas as I am. the size is 8.5 feet x 24 feet. See you all soon. amazingkevin, bobscroll, Phantom Scroller and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Sooo glad to hear from you. I was just wondering yesterday how it was progressing for you. That looks like it will make a great little shop. Great idea. Can't wait to watch your progress with it. Bendita 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Might gEt "CHILLLLLYYYYY--" === DAMNED cold in Oct.-Nov.-Dec.- Jan.-- Feb.--- March--- April-- and early MAY TOO! You might need to insulate/skirt the bottom and have a electric heater too! I used to live in NW NORT--DE--COLDER! AKA North Dakota; about the same nasty weather over winter! Should make a nice shop though for June July and August. Kidding aside; you probably will need to skirt and insulate around the bottom for the winter months.

Kepy Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Looks like you will have a great workshop. I considered something like that when I moved to town but local ordinances wouldn't allow it. Bendita 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudger Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Now that is a cool trailer Bendita 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Hans, it looks like it could be a perfect set-up once you get a bit of arranging done. After having a fiesta at the table, you can then transform it into a bed for your siesta, couldn't ask for a better set-up. Good luck with the renos, one other nice thing about this set-up, is that if you ever move again, it's just a matter of hooking up the trailer.
