Well I've caught up, again. Ten years in the making, probably one year of reading. The guy at the Bottle Tree Ranch liked Ford Wheels.

The Garage Journal Salt Warriors should set up a meet and greet time and spot at Bonneville. That way everyone can find each other. Bonneville is already on my bucket list, meeting the guys and gals would just be frosting. Doug.

Re: Lou Bingham '28 Roadster - Restoration Update This brought a tear to my eye. Only the best of friends do these sort of things. Nuts aka Doug PS, your Chevy II is the sexiest car you own. Vettes....... pbbffftttttttt

The Steevo has reached viral status.

Well I've reached the end of the story, took me about a week. The shop is much more usable than at the beginning, congratulations. You know, I typed out a long diatribe worthy of the resident curmudgeon on this thread, thought about it, then hit delete. I wish you the best of luck in your...

Bonneville, a definite bucket list item. Someday. The last flag pole that I saw installed was hinged at the bottom. Made for easy painting and replacement of the rope. Nuts

I really like your systainer work station. Not got into Festool as of yet, budget constraints have a way of doing that. Looking at your systainer cabinets, I think I would prefer all of them to be on slides, letting you access the systainer without removing it from the base. Also would want...

There's three sizes that when turned sideways are approximately 11".

I have a small interest in Illinois, three branches of my family came from Carmi, in White County to the South of you. Someday I'd like to take a look at the old farm sites. Nuts aka Doug And of course swing by the COTU.

Well you do have many years experience in shop organization that most don't. And the drive to make it better. I'm always thinking on how to be more efficient in my shop space.

So I was on Google maps checking up on the Center of the Universe, and was severely disappointed in that it was an old picture. The original house was still there and no concrete on the new driveway. Someone at Google needs fired.

Tease

I seem to have started something..... not for the first time. Nuts aka Doug

Anyone taking bets on what color the material lift is going to be? $5 on Industrial Gray. Nuts aka Doug

There are lessons to be learned from destruction testing.

Sometimes when building something, you are too close to the project to see the faults. I have the bad habit when someone asks me about a project, I immediately think of all the negatives. For one, I'm pretty sure that they have already discovered all the positives, because that's what we all...

I've wondered if the way to handle a large amount of sockets, is to do the layout in cad and have a local cnc router guy do the milling. It you did it right I'd think a 24x40 3 to 4in deep drawer could hold all the sockets a guy could ever want standing on end. Somewhere I saw that you could...

Having grown up in and around a wrecking yard, my older brothers became the proud recipients of a kart with a very large McCullough saw engine that came in. Temporarily. I say temporarily because they let little brother, me, take if for a spin out the driveway. I must have been in total awe...

Ok, I'm all caught up. It's nice to know everything has been well at the Center of the Universe. Chris, Thomas, I too would like to add my thanks, for the effort in creating what must be one of the top ten threads on the internet. I have sent a few people this way, but sadly they think it's...

So I've missed a year, have about 30 pages to catch up, glad to see the Center of the World didn't stop. Back shortly Nuts
