Where Does Your Magic Happen?
Where Does Your Magic Happen?
I'd assume its safe to say most all of use do our own mechanical work in our own little sacred place. Its kinda funny I actually prefer to be out in the garage tinkering with odd's n ends. Kinda my own little hiding spot in the world. Just soothing to be out there, and not to mention the THOUSANDS of dollars I've saved out there doing my own car / bike work. Now with this new stereo its just that much better.
It was kinda funny I didn't realize it till the wife brought it up. She goes "I'd love to have a hidden camera out here and watch you work your magic. You always seem to take a break when I come out." Usually because I can't pay attention to 2 things at once.
Anyways you guys this affectionate with your garage / work areas? What do you have to work with? Mine's pretty small & humble but it works!

Typical House - how droll......................
My workspace is a shambles - but they say this is the sign of a tidy mind.
They lie................
My magic happens when the bike rumbles into life.
That's when we both come to life.................!

I have not seen Motorkote before so I searched it. It looks like a motor oil additive. What are the spray cans used for, surface oil?
