Lorki Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 In the pictures where you were pouring the concrete there looked to be a tub or basin sunk into the ground, what is that if you don't mind my asking? Also, the shop looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58er Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 If it is directly across from the forge than it's the footing for the power hammers. If it's in the corner by the door it would be a sump pit. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durable, comfortable to stand on, didn't damage tools that got dropped; hard to keep clean, though. you have certainly had some time to really think this out. Consider yourself fortunate and ahead of the curve. It really looks amazing. End grain floors are amazing to stand on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Countryboy57 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I am just starting to draw up my plans for a blacksmith shop. And then I find this set of pictures. WOW, now that is something to shoot for, that being said I am only looking to build a small shop as it's only ever meant to be a hobby for me. I am impressed and can only say, " Good job Sir."
