Never miss the chance to run an electrical plug on wall. You will wish you did in about 2 weeks after its all buttoned up.

Recently posted about using a discarded yard hammock framework for a work bench port just outside my garage. OOPs! Sorry I posted this in the wrong thread. Not sure how to move it to "What did you do in your garage"

Yep, titanium rod and screws. And, as is the norm these days, no work on the project. Life can be a twisted sister sometimes.

With a dozen unfinished projects hanging around the shop, one would think it would not be so hard to get things done. My wife fell and broke her femur just below the hip joint about 4 weeks ago. Between surgery, recovery and PT, there has been no time for any projects. I've been wanting to build...

When testing in front of the trooper, just imagine him seated there in his BVD's. If nothing else you can have a good laugh.

Temps here are in the 100's plus every day. So, I'm up at 5AM each morning to work in the garage getting all the stuff I don't need anymore ready for our Rotary club garage sale. Amazing how much extra PVC fittings, electrical stuff and landscape lighting. you can accumulate.

All depends on how devious and depraved ones imagination might be!

Changed out the wireless keypad for the garage door opener. Broke open the case to remove the controller board and gave it to the neighbors son. He is trying to capture the market in recycled gold from discarded equipment. The imagination of an 11 year old.

Must be spring cleaning time. Cleaned up all my painting tools from an interior repair project. Hopeful that those paint projects are done for a while. Started cleaning up all the sockets, ratchets and wrenches from the toolbox and reorganizing the toolbox. Crazy how much stuff can accumulate in...

Retirement is so much better than some say. I'm at 23 years 3 months from a 30-year full time career. Many of my friends retired to sit in their chairs and wait. Others traveled full time up into their mid 70's. I enjoyed working some at other jobs, volunteer in the community and then traveling...

If you have an RC Willey furniture store, IKEA store or Habitat ReStore there, check with them for extra parts. They will often some crazy extra stuff in their storage.

My grandson works for American Tire, donuts are always appreciated. I've always been impressed with the work these teams do for customers.

That sounds like the guys at AT. I have a great relationship with our local shop because of their terrific service. And donuts are always welcome treats for the guys.

I learned that the stage punch list is the tool to keep the contractor and sub's on track. Until the punch list steps are done there is no payment. That includes clean up of their left over junk. We did this on the first couple of jobs and then the word got out and the fussing ended and things...
