I thought a place to post pics of the extra projects we do around the shop or where ever might catch on and be some fun. Just a spot to show what you are doing/building/working on.

For example, i ended up with another freebie and needed an engine stand for it. So i used up some scrap metal laying around and made one. Nothing pretty but it is holding up the motor.

I use a 1500 lb engine stand with a nice piece of hemlock on it .Can turn the motor sideways or even upside down if you so desire.In theory you could store a few motors on it if you did it right.OPPS just relised I was looking at page 1 ,lol.

Went and visited my bf who is dying of cancer .Its hard since he,s only 50 and its at the early stages of a down hill slide.HE,S doing as well as can be expected but the outlook is grim as the mortality rate is very high for pancreatic cancer especially after its spread to the lungs and liver.

The Good Part;

Spent about 45 minutes this afternoon teaching my Doberman to yodel to an old Patsy Montana song.

The Bad Part;

I didn’t realize that my wife wasn’t feeling too hot so she was in the bedroom trying to take an afternoon nap. My Sunday dinner was peanut butter cookies I made myself.
