yeah, it is big enough for me now. i haven't been able to use it till recently because i was dumb and hurt both my arms.... all i could do for several months was sit and play guitar till my elbows started throbbing with pain. picking up the wrench was out of the question. :wtf:

with the left overs of the basic construction / demolition involved in my garage extension (8 year itch) i slapped together a preliminary storage cart for my canopy. i want to make it out of steel when i get to the design i want. one of the main features will be so i can pull some pins and it...

finally got the exterior painted and the outdoor lighting done. the CTD is back in action so i can get my sheetrock and insulation. i was considering osb but i think drywall is for me this time. there will be another first for me, i need to do some concrete - 25' x 4' walk way. never worked...
