Winter projects????........That would require a heated shop, even in the garage with a space heater its not conducive to staying out there very long..........They just become "spring projects".

Right now I'm trying to finish up the hull damage on my dragboat, finish the new floorpans on the sons unibody, get the new suspension on my 68 hauler, and design 2 new pieces of equipment for the gold mine.................Plus work on some bio projects, and finish moving all my "stuff" to the new house! Wish I could clone myself...................

Yeah, rub it in........Lack of heated shop is why my buddy has taken 13yrs to refurb. his 27ft cabin cruiser, 12,000lbs and I get the honor of towing it over to Florence this spring. Twin straight 6 chevs. made of wood, About 1955 orig manufacture.
