Yep

Good News.

 

[dtanner]

Glad to hear your about to enjoy the season in your new home !

 

[digger]

We won't be moving in any time soon.
I want to get the main building done first.

Besides, I'm loosing interest really quick, and if I'm not in the mood, it just isn't going to happen to fast!

Mindsets and attitudes change as time passes!!!!

 

[dtanner]

Main building going up in the freezing weather you have? I would not like that job; That is a spring job. Is that what I`am reading into that last statement ? I think you will need a breeze way between the Main building and your house for those cold days .I`am think of one here heated of course .
I hope things start to fall your way soon .

 

[mschutz]

I was hoping you were in for the holidays. I guess it will come in time.

We don't have a building yet, but we're going to have 2 semi loads of shelving to put in it, LOL
The local Office Max store moved and we ended up buying all the shelving!
It's amazing what kind of deal they will make when you say I'll take it all!
I'm going to drop off 2 48' trailers Friday morning.

Future shop work tables,

Future shipping stations,

Charlie, I just realized why that first photo made me think of an old IH Dealership, the shelves are yellow and white!

I couldn't find the series of photos I had in mind, this is as close as I can find.

 

[kmcconaughey]

This made me laugh. Sooo, you can only window shop at this place?

 

[digger]

Kraig,
The last batch of shelves, 400 ft. I had expanded CCS were IH brass tagged marked shelves from an old dealership in Minot N.D..
These had only been up 5 weeks, Grrrrrrrrr

Charlie,

It looks like one of those store shelves had a bunch of crayons hanging there. Do the Federal Yellow crayons come with the deal....

 

[sshaff]

Good for you, Charlie...glad to hear you're making some progress with this. Looking forward to seeing things come together as it happens!

 

[digger]

At least I've some tools to work with and a box to put them in, LOL
Had to go for the basics first,
540 piece set, floor jack and a new box.

 

[kmcconaughey]

Charlie, hey, nice start! I like that tool box.

 

[ljones]

Charlie, the US General toolboxes are sweet! I couldn't find anything else that was on par with their quality that didn't cost 2-3 times as much. I have the smaller 26" version.

 

[digger]

I looked at pretty much all the name brand boxes as well as some off brand and found that the General actually had .003 thicker steel in the drawers.
Plus the drawer slides were better than Craftsman and Waterloo and better than Snap-On's lower end boxes.
Snap-on's side cabinets weigh 101 pounds and these weigh 128.
It will do me just fine!

 

[stanner]

Those US Generals are the best buy for the money period. Better quality that top of the line Sears, IMHO... I have the same box at home, plus I spec'd those for my work standardized workstations. I like the fact that they are gloss red now.....

 

[kmcconaughey]

I wish I had the garage/shop space for a bunch of those tool boxes. I want to build one of these:
