ShopMix15Min No1PartA is a MP3 file that is about 7 megs, so it will take awhile to download. It is about 7-1/2 minutes long and contains normal sounds that you would find in a back shop / roundhouse including hammering, drilling, grinding, air compressor, men talking, etc. The original file was 15 minutes long, but is too large to upload to my site, so I just rough chopped it in two. This is part A. Put it on your MP3 player, connect it too a speaker, and add sound to your shop / roundhouse area. File size: 7.5mb.
ShopMix15Min No1PartB This is the second half of the file described above and adds another 7-1/2 minutes. File size 7.5mb.
