Found the pictures through the Earwigoagin page, which was referencing your plans for the Mistral Moth. Would love to get in touch as I'm thinking about building one.

All of the other (almost identical) houses in the neighborhood have their big TV's and couches in this room. I made a deal with the wife that she could have horses barns and fences in the backyard on the condition that I got the family room to myself. Other than being horse broke, this is a great deal for guys who want a nice, well lit shop.johnzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05621283903677796185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838085020802983098.post-18146609483284643002012-12-30T01:02:03.369-08:002012-12-30T01:02:03.369-08:00I'm uncertain of the architectural terminology...I'm uncertain of the architectural terminology; the shop is downstairs in the utility region of their house. To me that's a basement. Yes, plenty of daylight from the above ground windows--v. useful; most of the boat building I've been a part of took place in dark sheds and draughty, unheated garages!George Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15375041586503979232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838085020802983098.post-42751988094350658982012-12-30T00:29:42.781-08:002012-12-30T00:29:42.781-08:00Lovely work.
