Just saying hi, bought my house 5 years ago and have slowly been working on the garage. It had nothing in it but a single incandescent bulb and 2 outlets. Ive added 19 outlets, a heater, insulation, insulated door, several lights, 60 gallon compressor and air reel hanging from the ceiling.

A few things Im working in is the filtration for the air compressor, some more air tools and a bigger box. I need to build a nice workbench, sheet rock and epoxy the floor. Also need to build a nice shed that I can pull the Wheelhorse, lawn mower, and bike in.

Anyways ill be posting some new threads and probably reviving some old ones to learn all I can! Here's some pics nothing special but its all I got...

Hey thanks guys, I'm actually about 10 minutes north of St. Paul. We didn't get to much snow this year but sometimes we get hit hard! I got the tractor from my grandpa when he passed away, it's kind of overkill but a lot of fun!

I do have a Corvette as well but she's in storage right now, hopefully we get an early spring up here!

Welcome...

I am just east of you if you are truly north of St Paul...61N to Hwy 96 east about 12 minutes...

I have mixed feelings on the early spring...I am not done snowmobiling but would love to get the Vette or the Z28 out for a little trashing.

Nice tractor BTW...

How's it going, I'm just over in WBL so not to far from you. I never got into snowmobiles, being in the cities where you cant ride anyways and the lack of good winters for several years now I just never purchased one. I do have a bike and a Vette so more of a summer guy. What year Vette do you have? I've probably seen you around.

That's funny I grew up off of orchard lane as well, now I'm over off of McKnight closer to the lake. I like living in WB I'm not sure that we will ever leave here. I have a 1999 Coupe all black inside and out...

That's funny right there. I think this state is the land of projects due to all four seasons something is happening.
