Considering I've broken just about every other brand.. That kind of quality.

I've had this piece for 30+ years and it has not had an easy life.

Appreciate that. Its my last project, so I'm just doing what I've always thought of.

Re-purposing some rack from my friends pickup. He bought a white '95 F-150 from some auction that had PSU emblems on the doors, and this on the back. I think it was a band support truck. Its going to be a wall mounted tire rack. Using some rough cut hemlock 4x4x36 posts to space it away from the...

Apparently dude stuck around for the winter. He cleaned out the birds while my shop was under construction and I haven't seen him since until today. A very docile fellow that appears to be in excellent health. He can stick around as far as I'm concerned.

Finished. Used some black trim boards for the face finish.

Progress. My friend came over and this is what our efforts brought. Simple boxes from 2x4s screwed together and then leftover white board siding from my house build glued and nailed on the bottoms. Thinking this white bottom with 3 of the same 4 foot lights I used on the ceiling underneath...

Not sure what you're asking. The brackets are Ford corporate blue, and the high shelf will be white. I'm using the rest of the board and batten siding from my house build to trim this shelf out. This is the empty space before this part of the project started, and I'm glad you're enjoying my...

Getting there. A friend gave me 5 hours of his time yesterday on this and I'm forever grateful. Time is our most precious commodity, and to give your time to someone else is a real deal gift. The 24"x24" brackets got powdercoated and mounted. There will be a 26" deep 40' long shelf sitting on...

Daddy's ******* a 10 minute rest from the football chase.

All Ford here, all the time. As far as little Hondas goes.. I have none currently but I definitely have plans. I'm near Knoebels Grove Amusement park.

Just a quick shot of the last pull I've gotta make. The pvc drain sticking up has a little orange rope around it. That will guide the 100' of pex getting pushed from shop to house. My water plan will be house water on one sink handle and collected rainwater on the other handle. I'll be diving...

Finally got to the powdercoat shop to drop off my high shelf brackets. I've been doing business with this guy for 25+ years. He's busy right now with racing season about to go WFO here in PA. He did 400+ race car frames LAST YEAR.. http://www.custommetalcoating.com/

Didn't know they even made them. Definitely the right thing to use.

What I'm referring to is when the pump shuts off, whatever water that's still in the pipe has to go somewhere. If you're only lifting the water a foot or two, don't sweat it. I was lifting it 8 feet over a 16 foot run. It can come back and stir up the sediment in your sump well...and mine...
