Studio Update

My studio is coming along nicely (the above photo is the entrance corridor). The hubby has worked really hard getting it ready - he has just laid the floating floor and done the taping/jointing.
Against the far wall is where the kiln will be (above)
I'm really pleased with it and it's a great space. It has taken a long time, but hubby does work full time, then he comes home and works on the studio evenings and weekends (mostly).

It's nearly ready for my spanking new kiln - I just can't wait to start using it.

Workshop/Studio Progress

The snow did hold up work on the workshop temporarily, but bless him, my hubby continued to work during some snowy, blustery weather. He certainly needs a pat on the back for that! His work partner has also been helping out, and they have really cracked on and made great progress. They had to knock down a 12" thick wall, the length of the building, hence the needs for some mechanical help in the shape of the quad and trailer. It took a whole day (and some) to dismantle the wall. The latest work is digging down to one level. The hubby has to excavate an area of ground to approximately 2 feet so it will be the same level as the rest of the ground floor. No wander he's napping right now! The next stage is concreting the floor ready for the internal framework. I have to say it is a slow process, but hubby certainly has been working hard.
