Some of us like that kind of work....... I worked for a dealer for years, love doing that kind of stuff on sleds, even more fun is custom tunnels and what not.

Saw this truck at a local car show, turns out we are from the and county not too far away from each other. Small world made smaller through garage journal! I also good to meet the owner/ builder and his family, super nice folks. I can tell you all, pictures aren't even close to worthy of this...

Looks great. Almost exactly what I plan on building at my house. Can I ask, what are the dimensions of the loft area? Also what is the roof slope/pitch and peak height? Trying to get a good idea of where I'll be when I build mine.

I also struggled with school at some points. I have a degree in autobody and small business administration, haven't worked in the business in years. After graduating I worked for a very well known hot rod shop and got to help build some incredible machines, usually in the 6 figures range...

The house I grew up in had a 2 car attached garage, we built a 40x60 steel building with lots of space around it for parking vehicles. Wasn't enough. The house my parents live in now has a 2 car attached, 60x100 steel building and a 10x40 storage container that was built into a barn like...

Will be watching this one, I need ideas as well.

Bullet proof vest plate ;)

Re: What did you do in your garage today? Cleaned it, then filled it full of stuff. We are staging everything there so we can sort it before moving it into the house. FINALLY GOT MY TOOLBOX IN IT!!!

Supposed to be signing tomorrow!!!!! :thumbup: After we get it all cleaned up, I'll get some good pics with an actualy camera rather than my phone before we move stuff in. Then the work on the yard and garage start, be on the lookout for more pics and hopefully some exciting work getting done.

For everyday, typical use I carry a 3-blade old timer. For "other" uses or potential uses I carry a 5.11 folder, on the large size, discontinued model. Also a neck knife from Escala industries. Not shown on the website as it is a facebook special he runs on occasion...

You nailed it! There is also a lot of cooperate involvement with making codes, especially electrical. Ever seen codes that require certain types of materials, fasteners, etc. $ plays a big role in code making like it or not. What ever happened to taking responsibility for yourself and leaving...

A good mind

How to ride sleds, atv's, etc. Also how to drive cars, tractors, most land based vehicles. The value of doing a good job. Family before work, always (although inadvertantly) It's ok to cry once in a while. We are a bunch of softies! How to shoot. Still learning from him.

Personally, it would take some serious offense for me to even notice that my neighbor is doing something illegal. What they do is none of my business and I pay little attention to them. Generally, I have found that keeping to my self is a good practice. It would have to be one of your extreme...

I used to install metal roofing. My current house has shingles but when they need replaced I'll go metal. From my experience the pros far outweigh the cons. Plus if doing the work yourself, metal goes much faster. Plus metal is becoming so popular that you can get it in a ton of color, texture...

Like many others I fail to see how this is your problem. If it is in fact his property, his funding, his time and he isn't causing direct harm to anyone then it is simply not your place to mettle in his affairs. I have never understood where people get off putting so much energy into other...

Well we got the occupancy permit yesterday!!! Officially done. There are a few things we need to touch up and finish off such as painting the exterior doors and installing window screens but otherwise we are there. They did a cleaning job earlier this week, not a great one the floors need...

Moth balls. Works well, we use it when storing snowmobiles for the summer. Scatter some around it on the ground and stick a few in the engine area, under the seat, where ever they may want to make a nest. They are cheap and don't hurt anything the mice just don't like the smell. Also try to put...

How about some updates? We were hoping to be done today, but weather pushed that back because we couldn't get the septic system in. For the most part everything else is done aside from final touch ups and what not. Blah blah blah Pics Counters and cabinets first Now some overall with...

It sounds like it will be required for everyone to hook up but who knows, we will see. Food will be a bit of a change as we are used to using the disposal, same with feminine products. We use baking soda and vinegar for drain cleaning so that should be ok yes? No paint got it. Hopefully being...
