I work in my garage for the most part, to get outta the sun. But when its cloudy, everything gets broken down on the tailgate. I have 2 bins i got from United Metals. 1 for my really small tin (stuff that ends up never getting thrown out at the yard, it all adds up!) and my small aluminum heat sinks. Behind that, a small, POS, 4x8 white trailer.



If i can every figure out how to get pictures from my phone, to the computer, i'll show yall. (I just got a phone 2 years ago when i was 18. Born and raised small town livin, never really needed one)

I asked United for bins. They wouldn't let me have any unless it was to be short term, like 2-3 weeks. I may try Western, they have more bins than any yard I've ever seen. Pacific just smirked and said they have none to give out, yet their ads say they loan out bins, though they specify it's for commercial. Eff 'em.

About the phone, either a USB type cord, or if you have the option to email from your phone, send the pic to your email. I do that when I am in the field and it's in my inbox when I get home. Then right click to desktop and upload from there.

hoss, didn't realize you were just a kid. Don't be insulted....I think your posts sound intelligent, mature, and experienced. Keep it up and be kind to your busybody neighbors !!

Hoss, the wife uses a small patch cord she found at W*llmart to hook her phone to the computer, it'll upload pictures just fine; that's where the "kittie" pictures come from.

Would love to see some of the bigger guys lots on here also!!!..;-)...I need inspiration!!..lol

Great pics Re-Cycler.....Wow under water....Snow drifts.....ok I wont complain about the heat at my shop..; )

Boy I hope this works, I totally suck at uploading and stuff. See all the magnets on the red toolbox to the right from microwaves? lol, thats whats on the toolbox underneath also. I got that toolbox free on a pickup once, top and bottom was sign on it FREE!!

I thought I would I would upload a few pic of my space. The pallet of Bare bright weighs 1800lbs and was out of a data center, the ACR's weigh right at 800lbs. The wire weighs close to 15000lbs and the motherboards are at 2000lbs. Hope you guys enjoy. http://s1187.photobucket.com/albums/...nt=Mbrd789.jpg

I brought the lowest part up about a foot and still have a lot leftover for a shed base.
I'm a happy camper. No Cash just labor trading for this deal.
;?)
;?)

NICE work man!! I would love to get a load or two of rock to put under the shelter of my shop as the water will run down there if we have a down pour. Not bad...just pisses me off!!..; )

happy for you re-cycler...good thinking

Cool on the sand, oughta make it nice there. mighta put some drainage in to make the other spots easier to drain.

wow mechanic you sure look like you have your work cut out for you around there...I esp like the one pic where you can see you've used that old t.v. to do some work on..; )...Nice!

I have a 20x40' tent...bought it for around $400 to use as a tent barn for raising rabbits, then decided not to cause my buyer lowered the price for live rabbits. In other words, to get best price I had to kill them!! No could do. I could kill them if they were already dying or born with some huge defect. (I worked for someone else for 2 yrs managing his rabbitry) So, I have a nice workshop and storage space. You're making good progress Re-cycler. Mech and Snodly, love the tv workbench !

Mech and Snodly, love the tv workbench !

You never run out of workbenches while people are giving away those big old consoles, LOL That's how you improvise in this business.

Here's where I play at my dads, he has the double garage with plenty of room to work and more work space than I have at my house. I also added the tractor I use to load my truck with heavy stuff, I just put the boom on the back. I fricking love that tractor!! the two pics go left to right, I have that whole wall set up to work at. The welder on the very left is the one I'm teaching myself to weld with. Dad bought it and doesn't know how to weld lol, so I'm playing with it. So far I suck you can knock apart anything I weld but someday something might stay together!!
