    VW engine alternative FBF; You are coming along, looking very nice. Thanks for posting this build. I went and looked at the designers site. One thing I really liked is his full size designs will fit some one tall. (I'm 6'5") I think a replica Biplane would be a fun build. I'm currently...

    anyone remember these?

    Used to send the new mechanics out for a few yards of flight line..... The best story was told to me by a Marine Helicopter pilot. He convinced the platoon of infantry that he was supposed to carry that the battery in the aircraft was dead, so they had to push start it. They pushed it down...

    Steel vs. stick?

If I were to do a steel building, I would have it done with the best insulation I could get/afford (and by afford I mean I would wait until I can get what I want) included as part of...

    Shawn's 32x32 two story Garage

    So how did the floor heating experiment work out? Keeping the curtains in the wall even after drywalling will probably help. But then you do this for a living, I'm just a backyard butcher. Thanks for sharing, keep up the great posts and work.

    Old Workshops Magazine Article Question

    C14; Yeah, I've always liked Mopars. My next truck is going to be a 1 ton Dodge diesel. Then I can upgrade the trailer. I'd also like to get an early 60's dart or valiant convertible. Too many projects, not nearly enough time or money.:lol:
