I need a project. Something to modify, invent, fix, whatever.

Take a short trip and most likely you will have something to fix.

High today was 66°. Christmas day and I had to go out and shovel sunshine. Actually had some frost a couple times last week.

I did clean the IAC motor on my truck. Wouldn't idle at times. Never knew when it would die. Neighborhood drive says it's ok, but reseating the connector did the same. Seems to be worse when warmed up. Time will tell. blah, blah, blah...

I have a CAD program with a demo and a spanish learning program that is supposed to be better than the over-priced Stone'd Roseta one, but I am not in the mood for them. They'r for "bored at the dunes" time killers.

Craigslist + Counter Top = Workbench

Old sheet to keep troll from stealing small parts.

12V Power panel from old PC.

monkey, got a CAD drawing of that? I could make a mini one out of aluminum for a key FOB.

This CAD thing ain't easy. I'm just learning the basics. It ain't easy re-training a 65 YO.

Shop used to be family room that never got used.

I'm really looking forward to getting our "ag" building done... (that's county talk for not a garage).... Then I'll be able to get back to my woodworking,,, pet furniture mainly,, beds,, feeders,, etc... Working 50-60 hrs a week doesn't leave alot of time for that though....
