Justin and Val Westdyk built this shop in the winter of 2022-2023 with the help of some scaffolding on wheels and a jig they built on top to hold one side of the truss while they hoisted the other side. Val currently works out of the enclosed portion of the lean-to. The structure is 30’x60′, 14′ tall on the sides, and about 18′ in the middle, with a 12′ lean-to. It’s the perfect space for their many hobbies.
