We needed to relocate our home and business a few miles away, because of a highway expansion project. We bought some land and decided to move and restore a early 1900’s home to the land. We also dismantled our old barn (which was our shop) piece by piece and reconstructed it at our new location.
A new shop was built where John and crew do their work.
