~~Shop Update~~

It's been quite awhile since I posted progress pictures of George's shop. Okay, it's been forever so here's a bit of something--FOR NOW.

Geo has one lovely and very large red wall in the shop. 
Can you see it in the picture below?
Okay, good.

He finally got the TV he wanted too.
Can you see it in the picture below?
Okay, good. 

If not, squint real hard and look behind
the yellow ladder. That's where you might be 
able to catch a glimpse of the sleek and 
elusive electronic beauty!

The TV isn't hooked up yet though. 
Geo (I like to call him Mr. Electronics) is 
waiting until March when Dish Network 
distributes their brand spankin' new DVR.
I suspect it's probably a 
heavy duty, 
high definition, 
state-of-the-art,
super duper, 
industrial strength,
lumber scented,
well-oiled,
high-powered, 
fat-free,
sugar-free 
DVR!
But what do I know!


Now that's all well and good but it's not 
what this post is about.
Good thing, huh?

Anyway, can you see the three cutouts on 
the left-hand side, at the top of the 
lovely and very large red wall?
Okay, good.

There will be steps up to the cutout on the far-right of those three.

See the blue tape next to it?
Okay, good.
It really isn't important, I just 
wanted to know if you could see it!

Can you see the steps in the photo below?
Okay, good.
Geo built them! 

Since then, he's been working seven days
a week so the steps are just layin' low 
until he can take the next "step" 
which is putting them up.

And another view.

The steps will sit flush against the wall
and roll out to be in the proper stepping
position when they're needed.
Very cool!

The cutout on the far left of those three, 
holds a speaker that was made for Geo 
by his brother Jim many moons ago. 
Geo custom made the cutout to fit the speaker.

The cutout in the middle is 
a pet project that Mr. Electronics
has planned for the future.

He wants to build an electronic 
platform on which we can load tubs, etc.
to be lifted up to the loft with the mere
push of a button!
(That will sure come in handy at Christmas!) 
I guess you could say that it will be
a modern-day dumbwaiter.
Probably a 
heavy duty, 
high definition, 
state-of-the-art,
super duper,
industrial strength,
lumber scented,
well-oiled,
high-powered, 
fat-free,
sugar-free 
dumbwaiter!

But don't hold me to it.

I have no doubts that it will be a 
magnificent dumbwaiter because 
Geo is really good at this stuff!


I'll post pics of the new ladder (not the old 
yellow one unless there is a high demand for it) 
when he gets it in place.
You may or may not want to stay tuned!

Smiles and Grins,
D~~~~
