More of the 240! Thats a colour you dont see too often.

Garage space looks good! The 3 separate areas are going to create a good division between projectas. Car's in one section, bikes in another, tool storage and engine rebuilds in another. Congrats on the purchase! How does the rest of the house look?

Who makes the 550? Assuming its a replica...

I had a productive night last night. Made up my last set of cabinets for the time being. I had all those sheets of plywood from my friend that were the perfect size for making a decent, slim, set of cabinets. They measure 3' x 8' x 1' deep. They're pretty long, but they don't have much...

Also need to figure if shes worth a country song or a breast reduction. Health and safety first.

Sweet looking stable. What year is the CT70?

It's been slow progress since my last update. That is for a couple of reasons. Busy with work, and life, but also getting past a milestone(some cabinets) makes you think you have accomplished something big, so now you can coast. That was has happened, but certainly not the case. I have been...

I have been ******* and moaning about tinkering around in my garage...I'm feeling a little bit like a wimp now. I'm down in the GTA and we have MUCH milder temps compared to you. Looks awesome, but I can appreciate it even more knowing what temperatures you're battling!

Sweet set up! Diggin the quads and diggin the 250R. A really good friend of mine had one growing up and it was an absolute beast. Your entire rig looks awesome.

Good idea to use both sides of the joist. I've got plywood on the top joists that I will soon need, with 2x's on top. Dreading having to take everything down.

Started reading through. Thanks for the info! Its an old stove. Reginald 101 made in Ireland. 5 inch because its actually a 120mm opening for the flue. Yes, I could go get a much newer stove, but it isn't in my budget. I like working with what I have especially when it is still a...

I have a Reginald 101 that I am trying to figure out the safest distance from the wall, but also what I am going to be lining my wall with. I want to be sure this is going to be efficient, but also safe. Take a look at my build thread for a few more pictures and background, but I will also...

Just took a look at your garage! Great space, and great idea on the construction of those carriage doors. I was going to build some for my own garage, but this is a MUCH easier construction than what I was thinking. My only concern is driveway space. I have a shared driveway with the...

These Seca's are my favourite too. Just enough body paneling. The 750's look too cladded. I don't actually have the side panels, but I'm not going to bother with them. The bike is going to a look a lot different by the time I am done with it. Thanks for the kind words though! The two...

Thanks! Man, do you ever have a good eye. K70 on that one rim. I have a 68 Bonneville and that is the tire that was on it when I bought it. Hard as a rock and in terrible condition. I have a set of Firestone Deluxe Champion Blackwall's sitting under the bench as well. Just not sure if I...

What a difference a day can make. I had today off of work, so I got some waffles in me a spent a good part of the day in the garage. Although, first I went around town looking to price chimney flashing and cheap hinges. Went to the re-use store in town and they had nothing. Home Hardware and...

Progress has been slow for the past little while. Lot's going on and the garage usually gets put on the back burner. But, my friend who gave me the plywood and the stove found lots of stove piping. Saved me about $300 in insulated chimney pipes. It's about 12 feet of triple insulated piping...

Haha, I've got a VW Golf and I always get funny looks when I load up the roof racks. Does this place usually have a decent stock of 2x4's? I'm out your way visiting friends every once in a while and might check it out. 2x4's are always in demand at my place.

Thanks Ed! I'm a big fan of it character. My parents have a nice clean new garage which is nice, but its hard to buy patina like this. Funny you say that...I was actually talking to my wife a couple weeks back when your garage was top story on the front page. Our places are really similar...

Re: 22' x 12' Single Car/Double Bike Garage Rebuild - No56k Haha, good point. I felt guilty about the size of the pictures. So now they're clickable thumbs. Continuing on so far. I picked up some cheap, double hung, Pella windows and a door for a man door. From installing the windows, I...
