Great find! Fast backs are becoming hard to find.

Well done! I shall have many sleepless nights while I wait for the next installment.

Perfect! Thank you! And keep the stories coming.

First, I have been following your thread for a long time and every time I see there is an update, I get excited hoping it is one of your well written stories. They make me laugh every time. I love your shop and what you have been doing with it. I myself only have a 24 x 31 that is always a...

I haven't posted in a while because I haven't done to much to the shop. I did hang 3, 4 bulb T8 fluorescent lights. I have yet to run power so they are all run by extension cords. They light the shop up pretty well but I want to add a few more. 2 on each side of the shop mounted to the angled...

Beautiful home! I am hoping to build a new house on my property soon. If you do not mind sharing, what was the cost of the build?

Sorry for the delay on the reply, I check my user control panel weekly and it did not show any new replys on this thread. As for the colors, we chose, pewter gray for the sides, and quaker gray for the trim and bottom panel. For the size, it works, but I wish I could have been able to afford...

I haven't done to much to the shop lately, but I finally got something that makes it feel just right. A 1967 Plymouth Valient. 360ci motor and unknown automatic trans. 8 1/4" or 8 1/2" rear end out of a 1970 Charger. The car is in really good shape. I plan on going through the motor, rear...

And the finished product. I haven't completely moved in because I am planning on more concrete to make it level. Once that is done I plan on framing it up inside, insulation, and drywall. But I did break it by doing a brake job on our truck. Which of course, made me happy. :bounce:

Well, the building is up. I couldn't be more happy with it. But, there is one problem. The concrete is horribly unlevel. The concrete guy told me it was at 1% and I think in one corner, it is closer 3% or higher. I couldn't tell how unlevel it was until the building was up. So, the plan is...

That looks great. Congrats on the build. Keep the pics coming.

Congrats on the build. It looks great. What plans do you have for the interior?

Good luck on the build and lets see some pics! :)

I live in an old house with an old air conditioner. One year the ac went out so I got a repair guy to come fix it. He told me to never replace this ac because it is cheaper to run and far more reliable than anything you can buy new. The way he explained the new energy efficient ones to me was...

I thought the electric bill running that fridge would be a little higher, I am just not sure how much. I guess we will see. As for a little update, the concrete got poured today. Bad news is we needed 4 1/2 extra yards. The guy I used to level the ground where the shop was going had trouble...
