Well, not to my shop per se, but rather to the Top Secret Rktpwrd Storage works (aka my shed).
Pulled everything out, reorganized it, made room for more crap, and put a few more unused things in it to clear up some room in the actual shop. I’ve got a new piece of equipment coming soon, and had to make room for it.
All kinds of special goodies in there, a full set of quarters, Malibu fender flares, future headers for Olds Cool, rare and hard to find metal front wheelwells, equally rare factory black interior pieces, secret 15” wheels and tires, and still room for more!
Now just gotta find time to panel and paint the inside, install shelving etc, but this’ll do for now.

That lawn mower looks plain, needs some of your magic added to it.
You’re quite possibly right. It’s been a good ‘ol workhorse, bought it already used almost 14 years ago, and haven’t done a thing to it besides regular maintenance type stuff. Briggs and Stratton engine, can’t kill the damn thing.
Maybe a racing striped, metal flaked, pearlized paint job on it might make me enjoy mowing the lawn more....
....nah, who am I kidding!!!
ran wire and new switch for the lights got 4 of the 7 hooked up.still have to by 3 more lights.i am going with 8ft lights. then i can insulate the ceiling and the sheet rock it.
Sweet! Now come do that to my old fridge...for my shop.
The boy wants to play with the welder. Took the end of a bench, slapped a piece of metal down. Hung some pegboard. Putting a harbor freight cart together to set the welders on.
Picture is dark, I'll take a better one when it's finished!
I'm not gonna stop a kid from learning a trade skill!

Added a new piece of equipment to it. Hydraulic pipe and tubing bender, it’ll bend 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1 1/4, 1 1/2 and 2". Got it “previously enjoyed” from a friend, it includes all the dies and a sturdy stand he built for it too.
Price was right, for $100 I couldn’t really pass it up. Should be able to build all manner of cool sh*t with this, from roll cages to jounce bars, crossmembers, you name it.
Looks right at home in its new spot along the equipment wall:
Now I just gotta figure out the first cool thing to make with it!
