updated gallery

Just updated my gallery, and I am very proud of my workingtable, my own idea, my own construction, remote control and really strong (kitchenbench for top) Feel free to copy this amacing table.
I think I will call it The backsaver. All written in a humoristic way
Can anyone by the way tell me the hight of my truck, its locked up until after eastern, so I cant get the hight And in cm. please.

The top of my cab is right at 190.5 centimeters.

Your garage is interesting but your tools make me wonder.... do you use metric wrenches on your truck? I had to buy metric wrenches when I got my other truck (Silverado). Can't have enough tools I guess.

helpfully, himmelberg

I like the table very much. You must have a heated garage if you leave your laptop computer out there.

Yipppppi, thanks, the car will fit by hight.
I don`t use all this at my truck, but after reading all these websites with nice garages and a lot of tools, I just had to show what I have in mine.
If you could give me the lenght and (can`t remember the english word for
this), but you know what I mean.
The temperatur here is 15 celsius so I just feel good to sit in my garage and dream about how my truck can be, try to remember the good sound of the V8, and let the spring melt all that nasty snow.

The temp here in Norway is 15 degr. celsius, and the polarbears are heading north,so I thought that having my laptop with a Internetconnection in the garage must be smart, then I can work on my truck, and at the same time be in the forum with you all.
