Today I put away a few more things and started building a safety rail for my rolling scaffold.

Put some good junk under a bench, replaced the lexan sheet on the blast cabinet. Played around with an 8.5- 10 bolt posi carrier and tried to find new clutch kit for it.

Started to clean up and organize since it's a mess, and then I got distracted and started building a model. Oh well.

Put a temporary finish on the loft and added some seating yesterday for my New Year's party:

I'm going to make an effort to free up some more space so that when the ping pong table is swung out for multiplayer games it isn't so crowded.

Re: what did you do in your garage today?

Polished the headlights on my car with the 3M kit, looks great but not sure how long it will last. Started my new year's resolution of cleaning up my place and getting rid of junk. Lots of time spent for a very small dent.

Re: what did you do in your garage today?

I took off the mower deck and put the snow plow on my gravely tractor to get ready for the first snow of the year. I went ahead and washed and waxed it while I was at it. I gotta take care of it, they do not make lawn tractors like that anymore.

Worked on the insulation of my garage. Had free bat from a building, needed to be cut down for my stud built building. Getting too warm in there with my wood stove. A GREAT January day in South Dakota. Y'all have a good day.

Re: what did you do in your garage today?

I filled my blower with oil/gas mix. Closed the gas can, picked up the blower and promptly poured half the tank of oil/gas down the front of my pants becasue I'd forgotten to put the cap back on the blower.

I'm gonna smell that stuff for days.

More insulation and siding, I'm at about 50% now. I and the bride can really tell the differance, in the garage and in the house/kitchen. Pretty much the 500 watt halogen work light was keeping the place very comfortable today.

Moved Christmas decorations from the house to the garage. Later on, I moved them from the garage to the shop. Before and after I watched football, repaired a motoduck and washed the windows on my truck. In other words, I accomplished very little.

Re: what did you do in your garage today?

Installed an automatic door closer on the man door to the garage.

Been meaning to do this for about 2 years now (ever since I bought a couple closers).

Works great - gotta wonder why I put it off for so long ! ;-0

Re: what did you do in your garage today?

Went out and got my Dewalt drill so I could mount a couple of hooks in the wifes closet. Checked the temp as it was in the teens here today, it was a nice 64 in the shop. Hope to get out there tomorrow to work on the plow for my John Deere.

Re: what did you do in your garage today?

Yesterday I started replacing disc brakes on a friend's 2005 Mustang. I haven't done this for a while and finally figured out that it needed a special tool. Off to HF this morning to buy the tool (I'll probably only use it a few times (I'm a weekend warrior)) but who knows? That made short work of the brake job.

Re-arranged the toolbox. Used the grate from a couple old (dead) halogen lights to make a pliers rack. Saved me a bunch of room.

Cleaned the garage up.

Worked on the door to the compressor room. Need another hour to finish the trim but gave it up for a beer. It's getting late.

Back to work tomorrow.
