i love my shop. in it we do all the usual work...tractor/implement repair or refurbishing. we work on our own trucks and cars there, and some of the local kids around here (friends of my son) bring their vehicles down to repair or customize them since i can heat it up in there and i have a pretty good selection of tools. (which they all respect and put back where they found them, or never come back) and we enjoy these activities. lately, i've caught myself doing some pretty "unusual" stuff in there tho. last month i welded up a "balcony" for a float in the local mardis gras parade my wife rides on every year, and today i'll be "fabricating" a repair part for my boy's in-line hockey skate!! i know what i want to make, but now i have to go down there and sort thru my many boxes of "parts and pieces", "odd nuts and bolts" to make it. this may take some time as i'm one of those guys that never throws ANYTHING away, so i have several of these boxes of odds and ends...but i'm getting to the age that i can't remember what is in what!!!
it's always and adventure tho. i usually end up finding several things that i forgot i had or catch myself saying..."THERE that darn thing is!! i knew i had one of those" or even more often..."what the heck is THIS and why did i save it!!??" have a good day, mike
