That's nothin'!  I had to pull an overnight snow watch shift and got everything sanded and prepped for stain.  I hadn't planned on that for at least another week, which I figured I could push off for a month!

This getting stuff done feels all floopy

well I had to make a new hobby once the post count was turned off of EE and I figured it may as well be building a cabinet........

What would you give to get your EE posts count back ?

I personally like the Space Invaders front license plate holder.  Damn those states without front plate requirements! If only I was able to enjoy that time-honered American form of self-expresssion!

That rear license plate is pretty sweet, too.  Nice new design for NC--BYO vanity tag. ;)

Better than that stupid thing they got on there now ::) 

I remember they had some big discussion in Ohio or wherever the Wright Bro's were from about NC putting that on their plates.

Just caught up with this... are you really keeping your cab outside?  Probably not but the comments imply this.

Also, is that the final paint job?  Doesn't look finished.

Good stuff, though...

Everyone who is a redneck lives in NC has a shed.  He had to kick a few cats and chickens out of it, but..... ;)



Missin, is that an actual sticker, or is it that vinyl you can pull off and move from place to place if need be?  I don't wanna have it stuck on my work truck, but I WOULD like to sport it on my work truck ;D

I want a shed.  I need storage space but want to use my basement as living space.  Plus, it's much harder to yank a project out of the basement into the yard.  I'd have to bring it up and down a set of steps.

If I was ever to get my truck painted, I'd paint it black and then have asteroids and the space ship on it

That's because he's painting his truck. He started with the asteroids and now moves on to the black background.  ;D
