I like how you're doing the rustic look.
I'll be done when I'm finished, if that's not fast enough, take a number.

No action here for awhile, are you still building?

Busted!!! :o No building here right now.... :(
Thanks for checking Bruce.. actually the Tackle Box, has been put to another use for now, moving..
and has paid for itself in that task... :thumbsup:
On the building (conversion) of our camper.. this move will help..
First thing we did when we found a place to move to,, was buy a building and have it set up in the back yard for a shop.. :thumbsup:
The shop was set up before we finished moving in.. :roll: PRIORITY"S MAN PRIORITY"S :applause:

Now the weather is changing to cooler, so hopefully start back to work on the Tackle Box..
Having a dry comfortable shop to work in,, should make a big difference.. :thumbsup:
Stay safe, David

Hi David,

We've been away for a while and, when I check back, you moved your home. Hopefully it was your decision and on your timeline. Looking forward to seeing your build progress after you get re-established.

Take care,
Tom

Hey there buddy, wondered what happened to you.. yes, our decision,, will work out great for several reasons..
gonna miss that part of the state and country.. working on getting the last things resituated,, and unloaded from the Tackle Box..
Keep watching, will be back to the conversion before to long I'm sure..

Happy New Year everyone..

I left the last posting on here end of last year.. we were moving,
not enough time to work on the trailer.. with moving and then the holidays right on top of that..

Starting this new year out with ::
Cargo trailer finally empty from being a storage area for the move..
have been working in the new shop we had delivered back in Sept.. Getting things set up. Shelves on the very back wall..
Last evening, picked up Peg board for along one wall.. and new florescent lights.. are going up today.. :thumbsup:

Will be great to finally have a shop.. I can setup the way I want.. ;)
will be dry area to work in. warm when I need it to be or cool if needed..
Cargo trailer is backed right up to the front of the shop, ready to work on..
Couple more days setting shop up, then to work on cargo trailer.. :applause:
I want to go fishing................ :vroom: :picnic: :Flippin Burger: :campfire:
Stay safe, David

quick note::

Lights and power installed in shop today.. (tested on a light weight extension cord) table saw did make florescent lights dim a couple seconds,, shouldn't be a problem with the power supply I am running.. 50 feet of 12-3,, once it's done..
couple more things on the shop to do..
have to build a layout table off the end of the table saw..
some organizing of tools, this, that and the other..
Stay safe, David
