You end up not doing whatever it is until the next time.

Plus, you have to plan out the time for your projects...there is no run out to the shop for a quick measure of something or to snap a picture to post on lat-g, when the shop is 17 miles away.

Ever since I put my lift in at home, I took ALL of my tools back home and do all of my work there now. It is so much easier and better. I do store my trailers here at work though when I'm not using them regularly. And while that can be a hassle or hindrance every now and then, it's no where near as bad as storing my tools and cars away from home.


PRECISELY!!! Well -- that --- and I'm a spoiled rotten little brat!
