OK, project update.....I framed the front wall of the woodshack. Might as well have framed a real wall, not too difficult, but very time consuming (over 2 hours). The process included a scale template with wax paper on top which was used as the guide to cut and glue the studs directly on the template to be removed later.
The new lessons learned added to my list include:
5) Before beginning, go to optometrist and get latest prescription glasses needed...this stuff is small!
hock:
6) Use really really sharp #11's...
7) Don't let the dogs hang out near the workbench to "fetch" flying pieces of wood that will be needed later....
After completing the distressing and aging of the wood, next step after glue is dry will be to start nailing (ooops, I mean glue) siding on the wall and install window.....
