    What a dream shop looks like.

    So I'll be working in a new space soon. The completed frame is the little building. The main building has a 150 ridge beam. It's gonna be like working in a temple.

    Fantastic start. I love timber frame shops.

    Is it my computer or are those pictures rotated?

    Please take a lot of pics along the way. Thee builds can be inspiring and super helpful even for those already in a finished shop. I imagine for most of us retrofitting our existing structure is the rule of the day and ideas are always welcome.

    Congrats Johnny! For me that is truly a dream.

    Yes, please update with more pics. I think if you take the pics in landscape, then SMC won't rotate.

    Love the shop, Johnny. Please keep the pictures coming.

    The easiest way, if you have it, to get the pictures to not rotate, I have found, is to import them into Photoshop and re-save them as JPGs. Then post them. That seems to do the trick. There are other ways with other picture apps I have, but the photoshop way seems the easiest.

    Johnny, you are killing me. You post a few sideways photos of what is sure to be the best shop build thread of the last decade on this forum, and then you ghost us. Is it done? How awesome does it look? What spectacular tools are you filling this beauty with? Please come back...

    The easiest way to adjust pic orientation is, assuming you’ve used an iPhone, edit the pictures in the Photo app. Select the edit button and then do something to the pic, either crop it a little or adjust one of the light or color values then click done. When you post it, is should be in the landscape orientation (hopefully).
