Enjoy the new dog.

I made a little more progress on the Lamborghini last night. It’s now about 60% complete.

Here they are in the theater, one fully assembled. And here in the home behind the screen Four 18 inch subwoofers is way too much for my little room but it sure is fun. As soon as we got the screen hung back up and all the equipment hooked up My son and I watched the New Top gun movie with...

But more than other stuff I’ve been working on a few updates on my basement home theater. I put in two pairs of sconces lights.After two years I finally got around two making a cabinet door for the bookcase that sits just outside the theater and that surrounds the home theater rack. I still...

Before Christmas my son and I finished this Lego Ferrari. It was a lot of fun so I got us two companion cars as Christmas presents. I’m working on a Lamborghini He‘s made more progress on his McLaren

Secondly this happened. I think it happened while I was at Home Depot. And no. They didn’t leave a note.

Happy (very belated) New Years everyone. Thiught I’d share some (also mostly belated) updates. First regarding my free Vespa:It’s not that snowy today but it is five below. Either way the rebuilt carburetor sits in the garage. I am waiting for a break in the weather so I can install it and...

Here’s Tazio.

Free Vespa Update A number of months ago I mentioned in this thread that I was given a free Vespa LX 150 scoter by someone I didn’t know but that I happened to strike up a conversation with one morning while having my cup of coffee. Much to my wife’s delight it’s been sitting in my backyard...

I agree. It’s my intention to build some sort of platform with adjustable feet, at least for the area under the table saw. I think blocks under the legs of the router table will be fine. I wouldn’t be surprised if I still have that same intention two years from now however.

This is a great looking space

I’m more than a little bit embarrassed to see how long it’s been since I’ve had any real updates on this thread. I’d love to be able to say that I’ve been so busy with projects that I haven’t had time to post but that would be a lie. I have been busy this past summer doing summer stuff and...

I love this. Someday I’m going to need to steal this design and build my own copy.

It seems like you might have waiting longer for your permit than I did when I built my garage five years ago. I’m looking forward to your updates.

Pretty cool first car! How many times did you take Molly Ringwald out on a date in it?

Scary indeed. I can see into my garage when sitting on my family room couch. When I’d do that I’m looking thru the window on our back wall and then thru the garage window that is above the workbench. But if I am not right there there is no way to see in. And my garage is off an alley...

I always seem to have at least two projects that I am working on at any one time. This makes no sense of course. Focusing on one at a time is almost always more efficient. My other project is installing a garage mini split. I actually bought one last year with hope that I would be able...

It seems like forever since I’ve updated this thread. In reality it’s a little more than two months. So while not forever it has been awhile. Partially thats because summer is always slow for me as far as getting projects done. That’s even more the case since we bought the boat...

Mojo, Thanks for the compliment and I'm glad you have enjoyed following along. I've said it before but I'll say again that doing this project has been very enjoyable for me and with the benefit of being able to share it here (and to get some positive feedback) only adds to that enjoyment. I...

Off and on I’ve been putting together four car wash, detailing stations in my garage. The goal was to better organize the stuff, make it easier to do a wash of one of my cars and to open up some room in the tool cabinets of my workbench. All of the stations were made of laminated plywood and...
