Got quite a lot done in the Grouch Cave today .had to finish up fixing a shelving unit resto, and move a bunch of stuff the room mate had parked in the way (Grrrr) got the shelf in place , and rederanged a bunch of stuff that was just parked kinda in the way. the whole mess is looking lots better! Now I have to clean up the firearms bench and make that area presentable. That might take a bit ...
Baby it's Cold outside ! It is 2 below to start the day. I am going to have a good hearty breakfast and head down to the dungeon (also known as the Grouch Cave) and finish up fixing up the free shelf I got from work. its decent , and big ,2 feet by 4 feet and 6.5 feet tall. the problem is the actual shelves were made of particle board and had gotten wet and were falling apart. The framework is in good condition , so I got some 1/2 inch plywood and cut it into new shelves. I am half done, need to grab the second sheet of plywood , wrestle it onto the sawhorses and hack it up and drop it into place . I also got a bunch of stuff at the employee sale to go through and see what is in the box. A bunch of Packout stuff to get the shop organized .
