I was just thinking, all that lateral support is making that structure incredibly stout. Lots of work involved, but you've done an outstanding job so far. Keep pushing, although a shop is really never done.

Nice looking work, Mike! I know it's probably buried in this thread somewhere (now 54 pages long) but could you give us a thumbnail on the story of those individual boards you bought? Seems I remember you got them at a bargain and then you have to modify them somewhat to install them? Do you have to trim each board to fit between the nailers? Of what kind of material are they made?
Thanks,
Doug
