The Stone City Blacksmith Shop

Our latest project.  Renovation began in late summer, 2007.  It resumed in the spring of 2008 with the installation of two windows in the front.  We are painting and assembling eight more windows which will be installed before the first snow fall. 

Now we have a new roof on the building.  It looks great. I’ll add some new pictures to the web site in a day or so.

Our next challenge is to figure out how to get power to the Shop without crossing our neighbor’s property.  One solution that we are considering is the use of solar power. Tell us what you think.

We will continue to tuck point the walls.  There is a lot of work to be done on the inside as well, but our first priority is the outward appearance.
