Looks like you have an idea of where you are going with it so best of luck hope to see you keep making progress.

Great looking shop and projects. Thanks for sharing and please don't stop posting progress when it happens.

Several months later I revisited my own thread only to realize I am a terrible photographer and I have left giant gaps in my documentation of my project. Hopefully I can begin to remedy both as progress moves forward. For now here are a few more terrible shots. One exterior shot, two of the...

I am a pack rat so I have to enforce upon myself a rule. I can't own it if it isn't inside. My daily drivers, and projects are the second biggest investment I have and I am not about to have someone do $1000 in damages to get a $100 worth of stereo. Plus they stay clean longer, the paint...

We have always built our roofs with zinc strips near the ridge, but here in Western Wa we also make a habit of powdered tide spread once in the fall before the rainy season begins and maybe once more late winter if you have a dry stretch. We have been able to keep a couple of roofs virtually...

Looking good, just keep chipping away.

Your sweat equity is paying off nicely. Adding the garage to the house was a big improvement, finishing the garage is turining out very nicely. I like the functionality you are building into the place.

Good looking place, super nice start on a truck, what are the plans?

Idasho, Do you have some dimensions on that shelf. I bought a used shop fox based on your reveiw of it, so I have the same machine works great so far but haven't had it long. I currently have a cobble together version of your shelf as well but the wall will be insulated and sheeted soon which...

Thank you lilredex and smedly for posting those, another quick question on the wheeled stand, any issues with stability while driling/gridning/choping etc.? And how often do you find yourself actually utilizing the wheeled capability?

Appreciate everyones input, I find myself in the same situation so I have been trying to think of a creative mobile stand for multiple tools also. Leaning towards the tool box method with drill press, bench grinder and a belt sander mounted.

Re: E-tek Resto's 56 Chevy Truck Your work looks fantastic. I have a couple of quick questions I was hoping you wouldn't mind clarifying upon. Filling the pitting over POR 15, are you using regular filler for that? The Kitty Hair on the welds is that before or after POR 15? Thank you for...

Nice use of a small space. The tool box color change looks good, I lack imagination in that department. With the tools/equipment on the side of the garage have you given up storing a car in there or is it wide enough for both?

So it has only been 6 months, but I move like a three towed sloth so that is the best I got. Hope nobody minds me adding some pictures, not even a lot of progress. Mostly some finishing of other projects. 1 wall insulated and almost finished sheeting. Starting from the NE corner, NW corner...

That building has enough wrong that finishing the job seems like an attractive idea. But permits and other factors sound like they have your mind made up. I like a challange, so part of it seems like fun just for that. The jacks sound like the right starting point. A front wall and then go...

A search for "Tacoma Boys" should yield the thread about OSB painting with pictures and as much info as I have seen on a clean finish for OSB.

Someone posted pictures on the board here some once of a restaurant that used a clear finish on OSB like you are looking for. I will see if I can find it but I know they posted it.

My in-laws have had that going for 30 years now with their JAN. Lady called CPS on them when my wife was young making al types of absurd claims. Now she has been taking pictures whenever anybody is outside. Called the cops on him while he was pressure washing his house. Tried to claim that...

Looks like lots of potential. Best of luck and keep us posted with pictures.

Looks good so far, keep us posted on the progress. Your old shop was one of my favorites. Racer's shops always seem to be purpose driven, much like vicegrip's shop where the metal shelving idea came from. Excited to see part duex take shape.
