New to forum, just wanted to say Hi from Canada.
Built my dream shop/garage late last year and just now staring to build benches and cupbords for it. It is 22'x44'. Radiant floor heat,2"x6" construction ,well insulated,bathroom,stereo,computer,well lit up, No permanent dust collection as yet.
I am a member of a Canadian forum and find there is a wealth of information out there for the asking. I hope that I can also give some of my knowledge but I am still a novice when it comes to craftmenship.
I will post some pictures of my home away from home when I get on my own computer.
Take care
Paul

Paul, welcome aboard. It's great to have another neighbor from the North around. But as a Canadian, you're required to buy a round of Tim Horton's for us. Some Tim bits would be good too :p :D

Seriously, be sure to hang out here when you can.

Welcome aboard Paul, it's great to have you here! You just passed the required "Picture Police" test, and your new shop looks great. I really like the idea of the radiant heat in your shop. It's great to stand on, there's no air disturbance when you're finishing a piece, and it's one of the most even heats you can have. Nice job!
