I've dubbed my tear the "Glacier" because that is how fast my progress has been on it. You guys are doing well, keep it up.

In addition to your floor, I also like your ShopSmith and Swamp cooler. You also employ my strategy of having a "Neat" garage. Put junk out of sight inside cabinets.

Holy smokes! You guys are moving right along. Having prior experience and garage to work in makes a HUGE difference.

My build isn't going nearly that fast. Every step is a venture in to uncharted waters. Until, I bought that big shelter weather was a problem. Then, I've got work and family obligations.

Yesterday was a good example. It was my day off and I planned to spend the entire day on my project. At 9:30 a.m. my mother-in-law called. She was sick and needed to see the doctor. My wife was working and my MIL wouldn't ask me if it wasn't necessary.

So, I dropped what I was doing and went. After the doctors, she needed to make a couple of other related stops, X-ray, pharmacy, etc. I got home after 4 p.m. My day shot to Hell. I had tickets to a minor leauge baseball game last night. I didn't bother going because, I couldn't stand the thought another trip into the city.

A swamp is a must after all this is Phoenix Az, 8)

It's a old "fake" shopsmith but we are doing our best to make it work.

Is there an option for "You Make Me Sick For Making So Much Progress In Such A Short Time That I'm Really Jealous And Hate Your Guts?"

Seriously, great, fast work. But you should still include that response option.

It's a Brooklyn born-and-bred sense of humor thing, so if you don't get the joke, I apologize.

And I swear to God, I was NOT the person to vote "Give Up Now."
