This thread was started in 2007..... not all that long ago IMHO... so I started looking back at page 1 ----- just scrolling down... and what occurred to me was HOW MANY PEOPLE DON'T POST ANY MORE. Don't ya ever wonder what happened to them?

I do.

They got better offers elsewhere...

We should start paying members.

Bitcoin?


:lol:

A buck a post -- RETROACTIVE. I like the way you think!

Seems pretty apparent, you scared them all off, Weld.

PROBABLY!



Isn't it interesting though Todd? You've been on here a long time too... and I was looking back and recognizing a lot of names -- and they just seem to fade away -- while some of us have made lasting friendships. I guess maybe some of them just don't make the connections. Sad.

Life gets in the way and interests change.

I absolutely agree that the best thing that came out of my build is the friends I made.

Here are a few of my shop from a couple of months ago (it was pretty much finished at that point). It was still a little cluttered, but I'm working on getting everything organized. I even have a label maker to put to good use.

First project I pulled into the shop (I'll start a build thread at some point).

I continue to add tools as money allows (I have a tool problem). I just like to be able to do things myself.

Holy crap Brandon! Whew knew!


Hey... Don't use that "I have a tool problem" when you're at the bar or at a party... It's meaning is only understood around car guys. LOL



It's funny because people always ask about what a "car" or a part costs.... but they never look around at the infrastructure it takes to build them, and ask what that costs!

Very nice, that's a serious looking shop Brandon.

I like what you did to the ceiling too. A real clean look.

Me either - I had no idea BendPac made one. Of course, I'll never get one, cuz I'd have to build a whole new garage.
