    That's a Great looking bench. If it was in my shop it would look awesome... do you deliver? :D I haven't seen a punch set in the box like that for a long time. My uncle had it in his shop when I was growing up... I get an email every week from the GJ and I follow along but there comes a time...

    Wifi to the garage

    As luck would have it, I upgraded from an older Mikrotik 2 port AP to a newer 24 port Mikrotikand moved the smaller 2 port to the shop. I ran CAT6 in 1/2' PVC (I put it in when I did the AC ditch) to the shop and plugged the old one in and life is good. I like the Mikrotik AP's and they update...

    Question on OSB for workshop walls

    Thanks BobL, the Deck screws suggested is a great idea too. I remember something about there being shellac in the OSB so you prime before painting...

    I was really wanting to not have to make another car payment and was ready to retire without one, but my old buddy Bert (big expensive red truck) was starting to show signs of his age. I bought BERT, a 97 F-150 Lariat 3door 4x4 in 1999 @ 32k on the clock and have had very little trouble with...

    Question on OSB for workshop walls

    I insulated with foil backed bubble wrap then used the 7/16 OSB to cover the steel frame with metal sides. The dead air space between the OSB and the outer wall works well to keep the place cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Then we coated it with Kills Primer before painting it. When I...

    We fly everyday, rain or shine. Harbor Freight has solar powered flag light for around $9 on sale often, & works great too. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

    I really had no idea this would cause more work for you... but in my defense, I had no plans to do raised beds either... you know as well as I do that a happy wife = a happy life is a mixed bag of ... well, anyway. Seems like you might have to put more effort into dusting off the bike and just...

    I had a Birthday In May and since the old Weber Kettle was 30+ yrs young and needed to retire I guess... the wife decided I needed an upgrade anyway... A dual gas & charcoal BBQ with a Texas Smoker on the end... I did manage to smoke a nice Brisket to break it in.... And my sister sent me our...

    We got married last June and gave ourselves a wedding present by upgrading the family room to a 1080p HD Projectior & an electric 92" screen. We moved the big oak entertainment center upstairs with the 42" Sony for the living room. We also had a sofa down there so I built a platform from some...

    With all the space we created by removing the trees, the Wife decided we need to have a raised garden this year... so it seemed to be a good idea until the work actually started. Luckily I have a friend at work who builds the boxes so all I had to do was relocate sprinklers and haul a 1/4 yard...

    To make it easier for the tree removal we had the old fence torn down and replaced it with pre-fab Cedar panels. It took the wife & I almost 4 days over 2 weeks to do with all the rain last fall... but the results are plus for us.

    Where to begin after not being ambitious enough to post for a long time... I had a few medical issues last year and managed to spend lot of time and $$ having 5 trees removed from the back of our property. We had a horrendous wind last fall and trees were falling like Bill Clinton's pants...

    Hello Kirk... It's been a while since I have had a chance to stop by and see what the others have been up to.. Congrats on the employment upgrade! That would seem to me to be a good thing if I was wanting to work, for a big company.... So I took a part time J O B working at Home Depot in the...

    Thank you! It runs like it's on rails... and smooth as glass with the trailing link front suspension. I love carving up a mountain pass with all the torque and power on demand. I have a set of all 3 colors in 1/18th scale too...

    Hello xtremek, It seems I am not the only one who has been lost in the fray of living life's daily struggles. It's good to stop in and check on what keeps others going... I did find your post on my thread about the Rune. I hope my reply answers your curiosity. I have been riding with the...
