The room in the basement that will become his shop needed drywall on one wall and the ceiling, plus some remedial work on one of the other walls. I forgot that it always takes him a week or two to get back in gear after a trip of any length. So as of July 20th the ceiling was still not wallboarded. He had to carve away a 2/4 to accomodate all of those wires and provide a place for the wallboard to attach.

And he made a sound deadening box for the heating duct so hopefully we won't hear his machines operating all over the house.

Needless to say, we did not get the shop moved by the end of July.
