Thanks Jerry. Coming from you it means a lot. Seriously. I know our ideoligies clash sometimes but I luv ya Glastron brother.

Yup the shop's comin along. Got my desk in. As you can see I'm kinda a minimalist. I've had a desk before, just never my own office. Not sure what to do ...

First pic is fasteners, fittings & hdwe btw.

Congrats Doug , just like George Jefferson 'Movin on up' lol . Is that some kind of animal horn sticking out of the box with the pink towel ? Is that the box with the rubber chicken's and whoppie cushions lol J/K Good luck . Gil

That's my stuffed alligator "Groucho" Gil. What yer seeing is the tip of his tail. His feet are a lil rough too btw ... Pic coming soon.

Yo Doran, dunno 'bout a/c. 'Specially the whole shop?! Facing West vs East already makes an incredible difference. Hard to believe I worked outa that building across the street for close to ten yrs. Nowadays, temperature wise I feel like I just moved to NC ...? But seriously, I probly will wind up stickin a window shaker it the office eventually.

Got some more organization done today. Well my Mom did, I had to sew some stuff to make some freakin' money! Ain't got much sewin done over the past 5 days.

We're gettin there fellas. Thanks for the support!

Carry on

Pic of "Groucho" for Gil. As you can see he's in purty rough shape. Thought about giving him a bath but 'fraid he'd fall apart more ...?

Pics of my frame jig, bender, and old shop across the street. It's the one with the awning & dark blue door.

Todays update:

Me'n Bobby Beer got the ladder up to the loft built/installed. My patchwork quilt flo is almost done. Rearranged the foam some. Plan is to get any excess lumber/starboard up there as well.

We were making great progress til my buddy Jim Grinnell came by 2 hrs early with his boat. Lemme tell ya when you mix a guy who works for Budweiser with a guy who likes Budweiser, and add a guy who's last name is Beer? All work stops ...

Looks very organized Doug! Nice work.

Thanks Jason. My goal by tomorrow is to have the floor in the loft finished, and move the rest of the wood up there.

Ya could move the desk a little closer to the outlet.

Rosscoe · « **Reply #36 on:** May 13, 2013, 07:45:27 AM »

I see you have your "In" basket attached to the side of the desk. That's where the bills go, right?

V153 · « **Reply #37 on:** May 13, 2013, 09:05:06 PM »

Pics from today:

Got my posters up & some more flags hung.

More work on the office, etc.
