"I never built anything in my life," stated Owens, "so a few months ago I started putting it all together. Once the building site was selected, the foundation area leveled, and the cement flooring poured, I needed only time and lots of determination to transform my labor and materials into a useful, attractive facility." "This is smethmg I can take pride in," ovnlainc Ovx/onc "All mv/ vA/r?rl/1no lifn I'uo been involved in manufacturing a quality product for Clinton Mills, but never really had the satisfaction of building something for myself." The 16x20 wooden structure serves as a home work shop for Owens as well as a storage building. Once the structure was completed, he immediately added storage shelves, tool racks, wall electrical outlets, etc. In making certain the facility served multiple uses, Owens added extra wide entrance doors, an abundant supply of lighting, and extra supports to handle any heavy objects placed in a hidden storage space overhead. "It's an accomplishment for me to have completed this project," he added, "if you set out to do something, it's amazing what you can do if you make every effort to do the project in the best possible manner." ^tH mJ^m u ^ _ l^^KW!
