Amazing!
The shop has been cleared of equipment!
The Champion tire shrinker has been moved to storage, it was quite some production. The steel rack is also there. It fit. It all moved, it all fit, and we haven’t got more than a few square feet of unused space.
Moving it took 5 people, an engine hoist, several chains, a dozen heavy planks, a trailer, and a lot of interesting verbiage.
Now we must remove the floorboards and crumbled stone within the next two weeks. I think it’s an approachable task.
To the gentleman who came by asking when we re-open, I’m sorry I couldn’t go into detail, but we were balancing a rather cumbersome contraption. We hope to begin foreyard demos in April, and reopen the shop September or thereabouts, with allowances for building requirements.
Tomorrow I hope to stop by and remove some ivy from the back wall, and trench out the waterflow, which is a biennial job.
