well, not a terrible large amount has changed in the last couple months, but the shop area is proving to have some pretty good flow to it, and i've been fairly productive as a result. i got an 11ga sheet of hot rolled mild steel for the top of the work bench, which has proven to be a good move...

this would be a swell gift, thanks! Matt

more cleaning and organizing. i've just about got this space usable.

So it's been a couple months now and i've been figuring out how to better define the space i have. the carport has been great this fall, but as the winter months approach, i'm beginning to realize that working under the carport is gonna **** bad. It's been so wet this year, and i'm always...

this little space is really going to have to break my of some very deep rooted bad habits, lol.

new toy came yesterday :)

you ain't lyin!

nice! my stand was gifted to me actually, otherwise i had plans to make mine. mine too will go in my engine stand, but i didn't have my engine stand at the house during the time i needed to use the differential stand, lol.

i pulled it all apart cause i needed the backing plates off my axle housing. it wasn't that bad truthfully. the fact that differential lasted this long is astonishing considering how i tend to use this thing. take this load for example. it's not the first time it's seen a load this heavy...

for sure, wish it was mine!!!

that was one reason i didn't want mine any deeper than i made it. it's already collecting things as i realize i'm out of storage already, lol! the absolute worst for me is that tool box tops end up being a collect-all as well. if something doesn't have a place, put it in the top of the tool...

i like it! i'll see if i can incorporate that somehow.

i have raced there a handful of times (it's still there!) and it will be my new "home" track now.

yes, it's a stand/holder. it's bolted to the top of my work bench for now. it can also go in an engine stand, though not much room for me to have an engine stand at the moment.

completed my first side job in the new shop. ring and pinion setup in a Strange Pro HD aluminum case.
