What's everybody doing?

Spent the 1st 3 days this week redoing the so called paint booth that's no longer a paint booth...  A lot of stuff was moved out of that room and some fastenal fixture parts came in the shop.

It's gonna be a storage room for now, air lines and lights are off the wall and there are 6 new Fastenal fixtures back there.  The lowest shelf started up higher so things like the air jack in one pic, transmission jacks, engine stands, etc can go under them making a ton of room in the center.  The bigger shelves made a lot of room for better organizing, some shelves are still empty, and the center has a lot of room now to get more things out of the shop.  

It's not done yet but may get mostly done tomorrow if things are quiet.  It's been 75-80 outside for most of this week so the past few days were spent enjoying the weather and working around outside. 

 

I skim the headlines on Yahoo news early every morning and evening when I get back in the house.  I just ran up on this one and took a screenshot.  There was no need to read this article, and most peeps that come here already know the answer...  

There was also no need to test or conduct a study for this one, the answer is yes, yes and YES.       

 

Gained a little more room today moving around a lot of stuff.  There were 12 4' wide x 3' tall rolling shelves in the shop taking up a lot of space.  3 of them were put back together to 6' tall units so now there are 6 - 6' tall units (3 were already in the shop) and 6 - 3' tall units. Some of the other 6' units were already turned into mobile tire racks.  They take up a little more space but it's worth it considering they're now easy to move.  Every little bit helps... 

I also took a minute early this morning to smooth up and dye the Wheel Horse bagger piece, it turned out pretty nice. 

 

When moving things around last week I found one in the back we restored years ago and got it out to clean up and sell.  The next day someone came in and saw it and his 6 year old son fell in love with it.  We moved the seat up and made another rod to move the stirrups back for him.  The lift assy had to be removed to do it but they wanted it that way anyway.  The stirrups moved back also make a nice step for him to get on and off of the tractor.  It's all shined up and ready to go, they're picking it up today. 

 

Everything having to do with the move and associated tractors from this "What's Everybody Doing" topic has been moved.  It is all now in the "Wheel Horse Section" under "Tractors".  The topic was "The Big Move" but has been renamed "The Big Move + Parting" to reflect the posts. 

Now this little venture will be easier for me and everyone else to keep up with in the future.
