Currently only the foundation for the grandness of the building resides where Jack of All Trades will be constructed, a bridge across a waterfall connecting the location with two buildings, which house the most of the shop's creative stations. A multi-roomed tent currently resides here, housing Jack, as she continues her construction project.

A bridge crosses over a waterfall, the railing on the bridge designed to keep people from falling in, and is also used as a means for collected water from the falls via rope and bucket if one needed; there is normally no need. The bridge itself sports a roof, to shade visitors from the sunlight, and the walkway is big enough for a hand pushed cart to pass shoulder to shoulder with enough space for a man to stand in between. Stone steps were built into the waterfall, allowing the water to cascade down, as well as to aid in the retrieval of person should they so happen to fall in, or anything in their possession is dropped. A path leads from the side of the housing structure down to a calm river where water can be collected, clothing and other materials washed, as well as a good source of fishing during the summer as they are halted from swimming upstream by the steps. There are two buildings connected at the end of the bridge, built in traditional style, as to keep with the theme of the realm. The first building consists of only a ground floor and a basement, the second is a ground floor with a second story, accessible via a staircase set on the outside of the building, and contains a basement as well. These two building serve several functions.
The Forge
The Forge is housed in the basement of the first building, down a set of stone stairs and built into the hillside. While the motif seems demonic or draconic in nature, it is merely created to express her fiery drive for the forge, and doesn’t tie Jack to the occult. The forge’s flame source is located in the center of the room, the flames trapped and forced to rise, concentrating them in a single point for maximum effectiveness. The coals themselves are in a furnace in the center back of the room, built into the hillside, and a gaping demonic mouth represents the opening. The walls were hollowed out and ventilated so that the smoke would rise and pour out of the backside of the hill, keeping the forge free of smoke, even from the center. Other motifs of draconic demons were carved to either side of the furnace, allowing heat to escape me effectively, so as not to make the fire too hot and thus weaken the metal, as well as to provide adequate lighting. A vent was created as well in the interior, dug up next to the building, allowing any smoke or stuffiness to escape that way. A pathway beneath the furnace to the center makes it possible for this all to work, a tube capturing the flames below, pushing them up in the center. Of course, there is an anvil, sharpening station, and a water barrel present so as to work the steel as well, as is common in any forge.
