Default Justa plain shop- lol

Didn't see a place to do a intro. But, it's really about my shop.

So, Here it is 38' x 19'5 x 11' was a DC-10 finally gettin around to closing in the ends and pouring the concrete.

It will get CAMO paint like the others, this shop will be used to build motorized bikes.

That is awesome! How did you get the planes? And how did you actually "put" them where they are?

Thats really neat.

That is very cool, but you have to tell us the story of how you happened to have a slice of DC-10?

I think if I were you, I would hire a hot stewardess to serve me drinks and "refreshments." I heard E-tek's former maid is looking for work. Just don't let him talk you into letting him have his new maid.

Don't think so, she's a nanny.

So what state are you in, and how did you happen to have an old plane sitting around?!?

This guy has some cool ideas - but he's keepin' them to himself isn't he!!! No answers on the fuselage details!!

(BTW - Philipino, HOT or not, nanny's don't do windows. They DO however, do laundry, vaccuum, clean the bathrooms, fold clothes (even my ginch even gets folded!!)....some even give back rubs!!!)

I live in Tennessee. While chewing up a wing, one day at work, I'm thinking, there has to be a easier/ quicker way to dispose of the frame. When I thought to use the planes as storage buildings and this one was big enough for a shop
