Thanks Steve (linuxmanxxx) for the encouragement.
Going back a way, when I tried out the scaffolding on the saw horses it felt a bit high. I had to bend over quite a bit and still couldn’t really reach past halfway on the wall (flat) anyway, so I decided I needed to build in legs. They aren’t much less than 1 inch shorter in this pic, but I left plenty to cut off of the legs (below the diagonal bracing) so I can get it just right by trial and error.
Okay, here’s the back of Karl’s shop, kind of the “before” picture with exposed insulation and fluorescent T8 light fixtures.
The borrowed scissor lift with extending platform (to the right) that allows you to reach out over immovable objects.
The “after” picture of the front of the shop, with ship lap 1x10’s. We are not professional carpenters, so we kind of got the lines around the shipping hatch a little crude, but with the light fixtures converted to LED’s and added fixtures it is a huge improvement.
