Still waiting on this one. Once you finally return home from your little trip it would be nice to see that shed of yours. Just remember to flip it upside down for us northeners

My efforts today...



Been letting it slip a bit again...



Slightly better... Had to quit short cause the last two weeks have been quite stressful and I totally and completely ran out of energy... but got at least something done. Notice the new table I`ve been talking about. Bolted it to the wall with six 8x100mm nail anchors so it will-not-move. Gonna dedicate the backroom as a metal workshop later and bring all the tools to the garage side. Some day... Also gonna need a sheet of plywood as the lower shelf of the table. Meant to split the one I had from the middle but seemed a bit of waste to use 35mm plywood as a shelf, don`t remember exactly what it cost but it was a LOT. The table would have been only ~120cm long then so I guess it`s better this way anyway...



Hardwood planks stashed away, still gotta buy a few straps to bind them together and preventing them from clobbering me while doing vibrating stuff on the table.



Been meaning to hang the board there for as long as we`ve lived here, even got the hooks for six months. Got the drill out so tried to drill as many things as possible. Still gotta put a hook for the other jack stand somewhere but it`s currently borrowed to a friend of mine so didn`t wanna do it "blind".

Still have the total chaos of the backroom and the corner behind the Triumph to tackle, probly a days worth of work there...

Looks good Matt, I envy the space you have. My little garage has to double up as storage for all sorts of stuff, must get it organised as well.

Anyone have extra 445e to spare?

Yes, I could see how that looks like a good idea.

But, end of the day; no sexy blonde chick included with purchase.

Just buy a sh1tty old cheap fridge, the task is not that hard : keep beer cold.

You never know. if you have cold beer maybe heaps of sexy blonde chicks will turn up at your house.

That has never been my experience, but maybe things are different in Finland.

Still working on that part Teeks, might be a question of quantity. Three cases was not enough so better stock up properly the next time. The only things I got from them was told off and a hangover...

Might have to settle with a 1,5e permanent marker and decorating the current fridge...

This is not mine, but I saw this cable management job and thought it was awesome.

Being a Tron-buff that looks aweome. I don`t even know how many times I`ve seen the legacy movie... Would look even more so if thin optic cables were fitted beside them, with blue LED lights.

Yea, I thought thin LED strips behind the cabling would be perfect. I'm a HUGE Tron fan, both old and new.
I'm trying to get the money approved to have LED's in datacenter racks. I had some loaner ones in a couple of them once and it looked great.
