    Garage now, more cleaned up

    Going in a circle from the left corner of the garage. first pic shows the red dolly I modified for strength. 4th pic has 2 of my uncles STIHL chainsaws I'm working on (I'm hoping my aunt will sell me one!) and last pic is my workbench where I sit and spend most of my time. I have added more stuff to the bench and keep meaning to clean that **** wall but it seems I keep hanging more stuff on it to''get it out of the way''!! Oh, just found those 2 speakers and Fisher stereo system last night, they blow me out of the breezeway!!!!!!!!!!

    Looks Good NA! Those speakers look like they would bang pretty good. When I moved to SD, I was renting my house in ND to a gal who couldn't pay the rent for the last two months she lived in it. Bounced check cost ME $40! Well, when she moved out, she left behind an entire Polk Audio surround system. I'm assuming that was my payment for the 2 months rent she owed me. Anyway, the 2 main speakers are in my shop, and sitting on the floor they come up to my chest. They literally rattle the rafters.
    Money is not the root of all evil, the love of money is.

    Lol, dad comes over and says. ''think you have enough hammers?'' I have 16 various hammers/hatchets/short sledgies on the bench that I mostly use and have found most of them but have more that don't fit in my drawers and bins. Lol, I'm like a hammer freak I don't know why!! the corner is what was mostly cleaned up.

    Sir, its only organized tonight AFTER I scrapped a load today and decided I had to work on that corner! My aunt gave me a TON of stuff from uncles garage that I've been trying to fit into the scheme of things. Some of its in the shed which I'm cleaning out and organizing as we speak, been working on it for hours. Gonna put bins for all the different e-scrap out there and trying to clean out what dad left (ZOMG, its a wreck) and organize the rest.

    There just isn't enough time in the day I swear!!

    I took some of my mismatched and oddball tools and threw them out at our yard sale and I think every piece sold. Gotta have something there for the guys.

    My garage is in a constant state if rearranging and organizing. Some days it gets close to being good, other days, not so much.

    It is my constant struggle.

    If I were to go a month without getting any new scrap in, it would be immaculate. I am thankful that I have the scrap flow that I do.
