Think of the following that you'll have when there actually IS a garage. Epic.

Thanks. It did seem a shame to scrap this handle and I'd really like to re-use it for both practical and sentimental reasons. It may be a while, but I'll post a couple of shots of the finished product.

I'm just starting to refurb my dad's circa 1958 Plumb axe. The head is soaking in vinegar right now, but I was curious if the original handle is salvageable or if I should just source a new hickory handle for it. I've not cleaned it up at all, but the photos show that the very front of the eye...

"Sadly, no one can manage it. Water storage is a big no no..." Do I understand correctly that in CA you are not ALLOWED to store water on your own property? Do they WANT the whole state to burn??

Not to beat the dying horse, but there used to be a fairly sizeable chrome shop that was quartered with a truck repair/service place just of I-29 in Rockport, MO. I don't get up there that much, but now I'm curious enough to see if they are still operating.

So we'll likely be seeing you over on Iron Planet.com :)

...adding a new dimension to the old adage "some assembly required" . Press on, young Jedi. We live vicariously through your unbridled ambitions. Well done. :)

So did you know where to have them drill or did they have their own divining rod with them?

At this point you might start thinking about your own web site. :) A lot of info and a great story in the making. I truly admire your ambition and spirit.

Subscribed for the scenery, if nothing else. Also the dogs - I have to keep up with what they'll be up to in this saga. On with Chapter One!!!

Wow. That's nicer than most hotels in Kansas City. (y):p Well done.

I should have clarified. Wayzata is just west of MPLS near Lake Minnetonka.....and for us this was 1978 :)

Minneapolis...Wayzata, anyway, was the same way with requiring conduit for everything when we lived there.

I did a little looking and found that there is an MVPA chapter here in the Kansas City Area. I plan on checking them out just to see who has what. :cool:

Built-in, never-take-them-down, holiday lights. Brilliant. No pun intended. No more untangling ridiculous strings of lights that may or may not work when in place. No more tracking down dead bulbs. No more putting the mess away after the season. Just flip them on....then off. They stay...

A multimeter.....that takes me out of the loop. :confused:

This is like playing PICTIONARY with internet thumbnails. :confused:

Hmmm. I could use one of those sit/stand desks. That one looks really nice.
