I found some extra spray paint!

Looks good, can't let anything go to waste!

Is that your home garage/shop?
I wish I had a place like that to work, I would even live in there!

thanx, i am gonna paint the grill gloss black and trim it out in kubota orange (color of the cage)

lol long story short yes. we just did get done building it. still working on moving all our tools in and getting it ready to do some hardcore wrenching (we have a LOT of projects backed up!). cant wait to start using a real shop for once. i am so tired of laying in a gravel driveway in the middle of the day with no shade! gettin to old for that!

and yes i will prolly end up living there, if nothing else its closer to work for me. we built it with a small living area including a fridge, sink, toilet, shower, washer/dryer, propane grill.

Looks good cutts. Don't tell me you have decided to make it purdy! Are you trying to impress some hot chic with your shiney new ride, or what?

lol we used the skid steer to get the lift columns in the air! otherwise it would have been MUCH harder. thats why you see all the marks

o dont worry... scratches will come soon enough! trying to make the ride coming up in sept but its not looking good, lol

thanx guys. i was nervous about such a big change but i really like it

I could about imagine.... Actually, no I can't




Looks very nice, especially for $20.
I agree with the posters completing the shop.
