Yeah, but does Idaho get Montana resident hunting and fishing rates? ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am willing to bet you can get an acreage here pretty cheap compared to Western Montana. I semi-retired here last year, bought a nice place with a 30x40 shop that would have cost me twice as much in a bigger center. Would love to have a fellow woodworker nearby! Idaho was actually fairly high on our list as my mom lives there just a bit North of Coeur d'Alene but, there were a few things that bumped them off our list. Without getting into the weeds, medical facilities were pretty important to us and Idaho fell pretty short in that category. Love that area tho and gave it serious consideration! 19 minutes ago, wdwerker said: Let me guess, that foam was your old acoustic panels from the studio days ? Thanks for sharing and I hope the move goes well. I learned from moving my shop that time spent throughly labeling boxes is well worth it at the other end when you can't find something. Yep, Aurelex foam to pack the rocker.. Boxes are very well labeled! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeset202 Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 $125/year for hunting and fishing all species! Idaho is the land of guns and hunting! No permit open/concealed weapons and you can drive quads anywhere except the interstate! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great state for that stuff as well. Like I said, Idaho ranked very high on our list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodenskye Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 That's a really sturdy and well padded crate. There is no such thing as overkill when it comes to an item that is almost priceless. Glad things are moving in the right direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaneymack Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Kev, that is an awesome crate. That chair totally deserves it. I should have thought of that. I think mine was just tossed in the moving truck. It's already all banged up from the kids so i wasnt too worried.

I'll put that in the next video for sure. I did shoot a little video of it while I was there but, it was loaded with their stuff. It's actually laid out like my current garage (just a smidge bigger) so, that's helping me to figure out the set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, like I got fans....lol Here's the stock photo.. I still have to get thru the video footage that I shot.. Been pretty busy packing things up. I'm still working the plans but, I think one of the roll-up doors will go away and I'll extend it 15' out the back. That will give me a bit more than I currently have. The baseboard heat will go away, a pellet stove added, and a dedicated 200 amp service put in. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mat60 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 The shop is in good shape. It will look great when your all set up. I would love to have a 200 amp service. I have a large drum sander and when working it hard it pulls 40 amps alone. Good luck with the move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Very nice Kev!!! Can't wait to follow the new shop setup and build.

So, yes, I wanted out of Washington that much! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it's labeled but, maybe not that specifically. I think it's in with spring clamps and bench cookies 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
