Made some floor patches

[pontiacgp]

you made the engine leveler, bead roller and the brake?...That is friggen awesome. I'm going to print out those pictures and show it to the crew. If you were local I'd be offering you a job on the circle track car where there is no pay and the only benefits is beer and chicken wings.. 😀

If I was local I'd take that job!! The beer and wings would more than likely slow this old man (67 in March) down even slower than usual!

How true! I learned most of what I know from my dad (a truck mechanic/welder)! We built garages when I was about 10 years old. Here's some pics of the my shop I built 8 years ago:

That is one nice shop you build and you stayed away from the florescent tube lighting. You sure do know what you're doing.

I figured that would probably be my last build so I did as much by myself as I could (it"s legal too! permits and all!). I tied into the sewer line, run the water, electric service, cable TV, furnace & AC, cat-5 line, telephone and natural gas line. My wife caught me putting up the trusses by myself and SHE HAD A FIT!!! Yup, she made me get help for that It was a fun build!

Oh, know whats nice about building your own shop?
Heat in the winter!:

you should be proud of yourself and it's nice to have a wife who looks out for you.

Very nice work on the floor patches, Doug.
I'm also envious of your shop/ building. I have a two car garage and I still don't have enough room... :?

I have a 2-car garage and a 10ft. x 16ft. shed too! They're filled with "JUNK" (although it's not only my junk!) also! Hey Joe, It's nice to hear from you!
