A little more progress this weekend. I have been storing quite a few parts/project saws at my son Jeff's house in Waterloo but needed to clear some space there so I could put some of the summer items like lawn furniture and tomato cages away for the winter. I don't want to let Mrs. Heimann realize I have plenty of room here for now as she would find a way to fill all the empty space so I insisted I had to move items to/from Jeff's. I made a kind of platform that I could lift with my hoist and was able to bring the saws up 8 to 10 at a time. Much easier than trying to carry them up a ladder one at a time.
You may (or may not) recall that I received this extension to the building as a benefit of the vendor sending 5 extra roof trusses and my contractor included a hatch in the ceiling to accommodate the hoist.
I also finished putting up the shelving that will accommodate my chain inventory convenient to the workbench where the breaker and spinner will be located and where I have already put the assortment of chain parts (presets, tie straps, cutters, drive links, odd bits of chain, etc.)
