Updates John, how's life and the new garage?

Wow, long time and I stay away from this site on purpose - can get expensive quickly! Back in Jan picked up my legacy build from my Dad, had to pay but was a fair price considering the 347 that is in the car I built and then "gave" him - *** block, **** Crank, **** H-beam rods, KB Forged...

CAme back on here for first time in a long time just to check on your new house build!!!!!!!!!! Looking damn good, I need to update mine as I have done alot since my last update, and have to use the drill press this weekend and probably clean up and sell a whole lot of **** that my wife keeps...

Did some work this weekend:) Wife ordered dual too Jeep in summer of 13 as a 14 model with 6speed and everything she wanted, Sunday was first time she drove it with hard top off... Racor rack with a few tweaks for hardtop removal and storage, nothing fancy but super easy to use and...

More progress, proud to call it my own now, just need to do more organizing and then get a bench top from somewhere... She approves as can see in the next 3 or so pics: The fact she loves it of course means WAY more garage time for me, still need to do more to get it a bit safer, but...

Had some tinker time this past weekend: Got the old retired 42" mounted as well and started cutting the pvc to put all my power tools in on the newer shelf I built:) Oh and made my first ribs in the oven ever.... only smoker and grills before this set: Also got some more color done on the...

Some other items of interest that keep me off the web:0 Older daughter: Younger daughter aka/Baby Wheeling: And that's just in the last few weeks:) Try to get them out as much as I can, have a senior in high school as well - but he doesn't enjoy father son time anymore so I rarely...

On to bikes - self explanatory In place now: Added more to this - for stability and added the other items as well but can't see them here as was in place for the under tray etc. Oh yeah, here is how it looked before - ALL the time:( Not seen here is a 42" TV that I moved out of the...

Wow, been a while but had been building up some items for the garage, finally - FINALLY got to work on it some more:) Since last update finally got rid of the BMW and got a 4Runner so some time and effort was put into it - 3/2" lift 285's, exhaust, intake mods, CB, stereo, etc but to a point...

I did my purge around 2 years ago just before buying this house, need to do another one soon. Have made quite a few more changes but haven't been taking pics, reason is simple - it looks like hell while i'm attempting to organize quietly because i typically only get to go in garage when baby is...

Been busy with work and kiddo's - but finished painting the one above the garage, have used the bench alot - fixed a few thing on it - and used the welder till I ran out of wire mounting the exhaust on the BMW. Have some plans to work on but current pic I guess. Oh added a Stud Bar as well...

About 90 mins in there today, it's good for now - wife hates it - means I'll be painting it at the minimum. I love it - have alot more to do - but this has me a place to work so will be alot of little projects I have put off that will get worked on soon:)

That's the Wifes Jeep - and no rack for it - I believe we owe around 35k on the Jeep, BMW was paid for day I got it:) For me it's a no-brainer, and only make the runs when I can't borrow the in-laws truck, or I'm too impatient. Also a great way to show the wife, I need a truck again:)

Way I see it - 10 year warranty on the house:) Built in Fall of 2013, I'll be moved out and it will be sold by the time the warranty goes out:) If I have to move it, it is what it is you know:)

Doesn't look like much in these pic's ,but to get this in place was a PITA - the relocating of everything was the hardest part, the workbench itself was simple, oh and who needs a Rack? Backstory, I had a nice truck, but when we went to buy this house I sold off quite a few toys - and my big...

Just read it all - subbed now, awesome build man - headed to stance to read taht one now:)

Wow, what a difference for a few minutes:) Will be doing the exhaust on the BMW soon;-)

Holy **** that was fast! Will get to Home Depot tomorrow to pick up some more 2x4's, proper paint color, and 2 more 3/4" plywood to make the bench, also some wire tips, heat shrink, and couple of feet of 8 guage wire as well.l May just be a productive weekend:)

While doing this stuff, got side tracked, but just did the following: Making my HF 90 AMP flux welder DC instead of the wierd A/C it is for flux.... Ordered this: Digi-Key part CAP ALUM 100000UF 20% 50V SCREW Also a 1 phase Diode Bridge Rectifier 150A Amp 1600V In addition bought a 200amp...

Paint is on one complete now - color is off a bit so this is basically being used as a primer - will do the other one next weekend. I'm 4 on 4 off right now 12's and this is my mondya, so hope to get both painted completely and the workbench built next weekend - all depends on the wife and baby...
