Thanks bro

And thanks again for the photo/etc. help the past couple days Did you get my IM about the two digis I was considering?

























I was only able to put a large chunk of one day this weekend.

I finished sanding some mud and laid down a fresh coat over the whole garage. I think it is pretty much there in terms of coverage in smoothness. After a very light sanding, I think about 1/4-1/3 of the garage will need another very light coat of mud and then it will be done and ready to move on to paint. It doesn't look much different so I didn't take many pics obviously. You can see in these photos that there are some places where the mud is still a grayish color... i.e. it's still wet...:





A couple other odds and ends:

Down the street someone was throwing out these adirondack chairs, and they were really in decent shape and were the right color, so I nabbed them. I figure after a long day of wrenching on the bike, I can grab a beer and watch the sunset over the lake in these bad boys. Not bad for $0....:



The new tank panel and piece of stompgrip came in... threw those on. Someone suggested drilling a little hole and securing these with a ziptie like they did on their bike... I will probably do that soon. Back to normal:



A friend's dad was using a set of utility shelves in a storage unit he was going to be emptying out and didn't need them anymore, so I grabbed them for free. For now, they are in the main basement with a lot of bike parts and maintenance materials on them, but when I'm done they will end up in the garage. Another $0 deal:



Hopefully will have some more good progress after this weekend, although Kat is going to be visiting. We'll see... maybe I'll put her to work again.

seriously dude, I'm as frustrated as you are. Basically, I work on it in my free time, which I have none of. And then the past month I was doing all sorts of bike work. It's really fucking close to done though. I'm psyched.

It will never be completely "done." You will always want to do something different. Building shelves, installing more light, organizing tools or space, etc.
