New Home Studio!
No pictures yet. We finally bought a building this weekend. The whole thing is 12 x 22 and it is going to replace the 1926 shed we have now. I am going to have a 12 x 14 room inside with all the bells and whistles. I am going to post a pictorial of the changes here. The great news is that I might be hosting small semi private lessons in the space as early as the spring.

Bek you can come over whenever you want.
Here is why I am excited about a new space. Here is my old studio. Its not bad , but it could be better. It is also in a basement, so it feels cramped.
And here is the old shed we are tearing down. So I get a studio and my wife gets rid of an eyesore.
Brad

COOOOOOOOL! I did the same about 3 months ago. We bought same sized building as you, had it insulated and sheetrock installed, window unit air conditioner, vent system, etc. My bro-in-law built a really nice work bench for me.  I put up industrial type shelving (from Sam's) for supplies. Studio has a wood floor and I had thought about putting some type of flooring in, but someone suggested I leave it as is. That's what we decided and I'm glad. This way I'm not worried about messing up the floor if I drop hot glass or something on it. I love it! It's a very happy place for me. I mean, when I open the door, this wonderful, happy feeling comes over me. 
Sorry about going on and on about mine, I'm just REALLY happy for you because I know how cool it is. Hope you and others enjoy it greatly!

Congrats Brad! As for the typo - made me look twice at the thread! I bet you can't wait.
I'm having the electricity put into my garage tomorrow - YEAH! I'm setting up my studio there. Plan to fire up the kiln for the first time tomorrow afternoon.
I'll see you next weekend at the NDGG class - looking forward to it!

I'm with Sharon. Kind of hard to imagine leaving the pink building for more spacious ones.
Enjoy.

Here we are at phase 2 . I am almost ready to put up the drywall and finish the internal wiring.
Doesn't the new building look a lot better than the old one. Just ignore all of the toys, it looks like a used toy store exploded in my backyard.
Next I will build in the workstations and the floor.
Hopefully it won't be too long, I am getting excited.

Any body can visit. If you ever drive up 95, I am only a few blocks off the interstate in Richmond.
Today I found out that drywalling is harder than I thought. But I did get 5 pieces up and worked on the ceiling a little bit.

I am getting close, I will take some pics this afternoon. I will be tiling the torch counter and building a jewelry/coldworking desk this weekend. All I want for Christmas is a couple of child free hours to get some work done.
Pictures to follow soon,
Brad Pearson

All right ,, here are the inside pics. I love the floor. I finished laying it last weekend, and I have a new respect for the flooring guys out there in the real world.
So who wants to sign up for a class, so I have an excuse to finish before you get here? I plan to be able to do private lessons and classes of at least four people.
Brad
