You likely didn't tell her the truth...

I got my cab completely sanded out and started on the box today, once the box is completely sanded I'll start the polishing then comb my hair in the mirror finish...

I always tell my wife the truth. It may not always be what she is asking about but it is the truth about something.

You can already tell it's going to be nice after using the 3000 grit on the orbital sander..

It will be a nice feeling to stand back and say I did that.

I'd like to if the right project came along, I do enjoy working on them but it gets kind of costly when you don't have any income besides the little pension I'm on, I had a bit of money put aside for this project and there won't be much left once it is done..Might make some garage art with some of the parts I have left over..

I guess the cost factor is a big one. I know it is with me. Make the garage art then sell it and pad the bankroll some and boom. New project.
