As you have seen, the document is more than a "how to", it is really an ongoing diary with an account of my life during the construction of the shop. Because of this, the "how to" aspect gets somewhat buried in the rest of the content. I am not sure what to do about this because I want to keep the diary aspect. Do you think that a better index or even a guide which points with live links to the "how to" stuff would help?Jay Knoll said:Frank
Thanks for the shop "diary". I enjoyed reading it, and found the PDF format very user friendly.
It certainly is a great documentary of how you put it together but as a "how to" for others I find it a bit unwieldy.
Thanks Jay, if there is another issue of this document, I will do that.Jay Knoll said:Often you say something like "I changed "x" based on advice from my internet friends". I think that the guiding principals regarding the advice would have been very interesting to post rather than just the outcome of your decision. That way, someone else who was designing a workshop would have the benefit of that information to apply to their own situation.
It was a labour of love, and I am able to re-live a lot of the experiances through the journal.Jay Knoll said:This was clearly a labor of love (both the documentary and, of course the shop. I think the shop looks great.
Thanks for sharing it,
Jay
