Dad's Cool Shop

[Dullblade]

This is my Dad's shop. I just have always loved the log look. Anyway this is the front. There are more photos of the inside in the Gallery. By the way, This shop has been in the family since My grandfather built it probably in the late 30's or 40's. It has been updated and repaired several times. Broke into a couple of times and occupied by Uncles Dad's and Brothers.

That is a cool looking place. I love the history. Too many old buildings are being torn down along with the history and memories they hold. I am glad that your family has held on to the place.

I like this look. I bet there have been some pretty interesting things come out of those doors.

There used to be a belt drive colomn lathe in a shed next to the shop. It had a belt that ran approx 75 feet to a car engine in another building. That was a cool lathe. It along with the saw mill were sold and have been moved from the property. Just too much upkeep and very little use. My uncle was good at turning bowls and my grandfather was a cabnet maker. He could also make awson rifle stocks.
