I wanna see that shelf in a couple months when it's overflowing with crap! 🤣

Permanent Temporary
Put a new cylinder on an old engine hoist. Tired of tripping over the drip pan. It was the very last one in HF, marked down as discontinued, plus I finally got to use one of those coupons that expire before I ever get near a store.

Got the lights up. Still likely going to need some task lighting for specific things. But pretty decent for ~$250 worth of lights.

Also managed to move a few things in to the garage. A couple of the toolboxes etc. Was huge pain having to walk back and forth a million times to grab stuff.

Overhead doors are supposed to be here by the end of the week. Also got the boiler and all the bits in for the radiant heat. Need to get that all put together and mounted so that I'm ready to turn the heat on once I get the doors installed.

Hopefully soon I can actually start working on my car, which I've barely touched in about a year now.

I finally got led shop lights . They made a big difference. I took some before and after pictures but my phone automatically adjusts brightness so they look the same. But hears the after.
