[AT] another new shop

[Robinson]

      Much of my shop floor has absolutely no cracks... Of course that is 
the part that is a dirt floor.   ;-) The wood floor part is good too. The 
concrete floor part was poured in sections with wire in it and has not 
cracked in any of the sections. It was poured in an old building so it was 
pretty much of a different situation. I do have a crack in one part near 
the vise where the floor was poured on top of an old crib floor. I should 
have jack hammered the old crib floor clear out but it was July and about 
95 degrees and I was dragging a 90# hammer with a 10# bit and a hose that 
must have weighed several tons.   :-)   Somehow breaking out that section 
just didn't seem so important. I had already broken out two 12' x 30' 
milking floors and an old concrete silo foundation. I was drinking water 
like a fish and still running out of sweat. I did break out a few soft 
spots so concrete could make a sort of post there. Those areas are fine.
