If you can, a covered spot OUTSIDE. Less noise  :zap:

Hello MadModders!

It's been raining cats and dogs all day here, so I was able to get several hours of work done on the shop. Part of it is now straightened up, and some potential projects were stored up above in the rafters.

I also built up some vehicle dollies for the model T out of Harbor Freight "el-cheapo" brand furniture dollies. To keep them from breaking due to the model T's thin tires I spread the load with a piece of leftover plywood.



They're a little taller than they could be if I had just bolted the casters directly to the plywood, but the extra height will come in handy when I'm working on the 'T'. It was easy to maneuver the car around to make the most floor space. The car probably won't stay just like that in the long term, but it works for the time being.

Sorry for the image quality, my no-frills phone camera has a tough time without a lot of ambient light.

EDIT: Too many pictures, not enough content. Stripped it down some.

Don't worry about tco many pictures. We love pictures, they are worth a 1000 words apiece. If you start posting too many photo's, one of the Mods will quietly point it out to you.  :poke:

I love what you did with the Model T. I wish that I had thought of that years ago. :thumbup:

Have fun and play safe in your new garage/shop, I'll be watching.  :D :D

Cheers  :beer:

Ahhhhhhhhh, floor space!  :drool:

Well, there hasn't been a lot of progress on this shop since my last post, when the weather is nice other projects take priority!

I got my hands on several more fluorescent light fixtures, some nice 8' units this time. My plan is to mount those to the ceiling and hang the 4' units from short chains above the work benches.

It's gonna be a little while yet, but I'll post some pics when the shop looks a little different.
