    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

A whole bunch of fluorescent lights, and a big-ass natural gas heater all in this week.
Several new outlets scattered around.
They even work and everything.

Can't wait for some cold weather to go out and work on some bikes.

It's been hot out.

Sucks.
 
if there are no pics, it didn't happen!

Must see it via photos. And since you're done with yours...can you swing by and finish mine? :dancing:

My #1 son is in Floriduh for a while and likes to compare temperature with us in oHIo.

He called home to say that he looked at the weather map and saw that we were at 22 degrees and Floriduh was at 23 degrees, so it wasn't all that bad. Of course, we were 22F and he was 23C. :D

Here ya go!
Still have to tidy up the wiring, stuff the outlets into the boxes, shorten a few cords, and restack all the parts bins and boxes on the shelves and in the brightly lit attic.... Got two extra lights, maybe hanging lower right above the drill press/welding area? Now have outlets in the garage on two separate breakers so I can run two big things at once...

This heater kicks ass, from stone cold early in the frosty AM it takes about ten minutes to be too hot in there to work on anything. Still have to finish the exhaust duct correctly and sheet rock the old hole over the heater.
Got the over sized heater so it will still work when the new shop goes in alongside the existing garage.

Now hooking up the speakers and stereo... adding 20 amp circuit and a 220 volt circuit for the welder and oven... replace the carpet.

Kind of like a bike, it's never finished.

Sailfish, I believe, no idea where he called home.

Could have been anywhere, Gramps was a Naval Aviator and got around some.

He's been on Gramps' garage wall a lot longer than he was swimming, I just inherited.

Gives the place a touch of class, don't you think?
