Kevkx125 garage project's

[Kevkx125]

Started to manage my zip-tie storage. Just have to figure out what to mount them to.

I like that idea. I made something similar for my homemade hutch at work. I’ll grab a pic and add it. Are you planning on hanging those on the board with all the storage bins?

Thanks for stopping in and commenting. I think for now I am going to mount them above the work bench. Look forward to seeing your set up.

Mounted them above the back of the bench.

I stained one side of my trailer decking today in the shop.

 

[Kevkx125]

Changed the location of my zip-tie holder's to my nut & bolt bin rack.

 

[Kevkx125]

So far I think my staining is turning out ok.

 

[Kevkx125]

Not much of a project but some new tires & tubes on the road bike.

 

[Kevkx125]

Mounted the stained decking today. Just need to make some filler boards and finish the decking, then tidy up the wiring some and mount some tie down hooks then its ready for use.

 

[Kevkx125]

Stained one side of the filler deck boards for the trailer today.

 

[Kevkx125]

Stained the other side of the filler deck boards for the trailer today.

Looking good! What type/color of stain are you using? Here are the zip tie holders I made for my work hutch. Hopefully you can see it good. It’s angle that I used to make a box.

Thanks for checking in, your zip-tie holder looks good. here is the stain that I used, the best part it was free , a friend gave it to me many years ago.

 

[Kevkx125]

Mounted the filler deck boards on the trailer today and stored some lumber. Not the best looking trailer but I think it will get the job done.

Don’t worry about your trailer. If it works for you, then that’s all that matters. Tell me about the stand in the background.

Are you looking at the 4 bike carrier that fits in a 2" receiver?

 

[Kevkx125]

Played with the trailer's lights, checked them all now working, just need to shorten the harness a bit then I am done with the wiring.

 

[Kevkx125]

Finished the wiring on the trailer , took it for a ride down the street to my buddy's to show off since he gave me the axle for it out of a old boat trailer in his back yard. I am happy with it.

 

[Kevkx125]

Put oil and gas in my generator and made it run. Put fresh fuel in my honda mt 125 it ran for a few mins but only with the choke on so I pulled the carb and cleaned it out with some 2+2 and tried running it but no luck so I pulled carb again and pressured check the needle and seat won't old at all so I am going to order the parts when I get a chance.

 

[Kevkx125]

Found some plastic hooks in a spare room in the house and used them in the lawn shed for some organization

 

[Kevkx125]

Played with my trials bike a bit today. Pulled the tank and drained the old gas. Next I will see if I can get it started.

 

[Kevkx125]

Put the fuel tank back on the trials bike, forgot how much compression that big old 280 had. I have to relearn how to kick a left sided kickstart all over again. Have a friend and his son coming over tomorrow to help with some projects, so hopefully one of them can get it started.

 

[Kevkx125]

Made a pair of 5ft ramps for my trailer using a kit I got from e-bay

 

[Kevkx125]

Not really projects, two small jobs. Changed the oil and filter on my 2003 ford focus and on my 2006 kawasaki zr750s

 

[TSelanne]

Very cool, thanks for posting.

 

[Kevkx125]

Today I cleaned the carb on the dirt bike and got a little ride in around the yard before a rain storm came through.

 

[Kevkx125]

Thanks for stopping in. What are you into hobby wise?

Primarily modding my 2003 nissan maxima. I know I know... a 4-door 'family' sedan..... but I find them really fun cars, comfortable to drive, and with some modifications and improvements they can really move. The extent of my car experience up until about 2 years ago was putting gas in it...... so I've been been self-teaching myself and really enjoying learning how to work on cars (well, just the maxima), so that's where I try to spend my time. However it's mostly spent keeping up the house. I'd much rather do things myself than pay contractors.

Next, I'd really like to learn how to weld. We just had a 2nd kid a few months ago, so idk when that's gonna happen.

 

[Kevkx125]

TSelanne- That is pretty cool you are learning as you go working on your dd. I hear you on the house up keep. I try to do as much my self as I can.

 

[Kevkx125]

Picked up some wood for future projects.

 

[Kevkx125]

Today my friend Brian and his son came over and helped me modify my shed so my mower would fit in it.

 

[Kevkx125]

Replaced the shock on my mountain bike. Now I can get in some mountain biking for a change.

 

[Kevkx125]

Worked on my mt125 project and got it running and rode it.

 

[joey1320]

Mounted them above the back of the bench.

This would drive me crazy
Cool projects

Sorry man for this taking me so long. I meant to say tell me about the Stang! Sometimes the autocorrect *****!!! Cool projects BTW.

The stang is a high mile 86 gt with 355's and a hurst shifter, cat-back exhaust.

I bet still fun to drive! I had and raced an 87 GT. Lots of mods and upgrades to race in factory stock class. I miss that car, but I miss the cash I spent more I think!!!

It gets the job done. But some freshening up of the car is much needed.

 

[Kevkx125]

Not a big project but a nice one hung the pruners up, getting them up off the floor.

 

[Ohmthis]

Meg, those look nice and it cleans up an area really nice. I need to the same thing. I have things all over the place.
