Thanks for that. I forgot my camera and got irritated trying to rotate the pictures right on my phone to upload.

I'm looking at borrowing or buying (if the price is right) scissor lift to use to work up high in the shop. It's missing the batteries and motor to drive the hydraulic pump. I'm pretty much at a stopping point right now without scaffolding or a scissor lift.

I'm playing with the idea of using tongue and groove bead board for the ceiling in my house instead of sheetrock if I can afford it.

I'd be looking at a few sections of scaffold, and a set of scaffold wheels. When you're done, toss them in the shed or wherever and they are no longer eating up floor space.

Don't know about your area Tim, but here that bare beadboard would not be acceptable because of fire hazards. It requires covering with a 20 minute fire barrier, sheet rock is good.

Also, I'd uses scaffolding or rent the scissor, because after the shop fills up that thing would be parked on a mudhole outside. Unless you can buy, and the re-sell when you are finished, that sort of works.
But best to put your money into the building and shop tools.

I've been looking at scaffolding lately and found out that, "Hody Pody," has the 5 foot sets for $143. Around here, they want that kind of money for rusted-up junk without anything extra! Not even the braces.

Been tinkering with the bulldozer.

But today I finished framing the under stairs closet.

More progress. Replaced the door that was shipped with the building with a better in my opinion door. And added a window next to it. This will be my main entry to my shop.
