Shop: Why I have the best wife in the whole world

We are visiting family in the states. Whenever we are here we always comment on how many houses have workshops- some detached, some attached. (Okay so some are garages, but to me any open space with a roll up door is a workshop.) Of course this leads to conversations about what if we moved here and could have a house with a proper shop. During one such conversation Amy said, "Well dear, we don't really need a very big house, and then that means you can have a gigantic workshop twice as big as the house.

I love her more and more every day.

By the way, this is the same woman that allowed me to turn half the kitchen into a workshop, including a bandsaw which I originally rolled outside to use but it evolved into just hooking up the shop vac and using it where it is. I also installed a 60 gallon air compressor next to the dryer so I can use the 220 outlet.
