Default The heat is on...the Hydro meter is spinning out of control...

Just a quick update. Floor heat , fantastic! Opted for metal clad on both sides and back, 500 sq.ft. of cedar shakes on front wall still to do! Should be done by next weekend, but I have trouble with high altitude sickness, even at 24'...! I am 50 now, and I don't know if I have any projects this size left in this old body of mine. It's been a lot of work, but I am happy with the result. The museum side of the shop I have decided to call the CMP Museum ,Canadian Motor Pool Museum, CMPM. More updates when I am done. the front "Nissen Hut" entrance is looking awesome! I'm done! Cheers Rob

Default Nissen Hut entrance to museum side...

I think I am going to attempt a wall mural around the HUT, airfield backround, CMP's with flights of Lancs passing overhead in a azure blue sky. Cheers Rob

Default Museum wall sketch...

I don't want to think about how many strokes of the ink marker were involved with this one! I like it! Cheers Rob
