When I had my little skateboard accident last summer I not only messed up my knee but pulled something in my back. Working on my knees sanding really flares it up and gets it angry.Spent a couple of days this week fixing my mistakes. Plenty of sanding …

Despite Mother Nature’s pure nastiness this week I managed to get out in the shed. Just tinkering mind you but getting ready for some real work.Charging the epoxy dispenser.Replaced one of the valves in the resin side. I destroyed the last one trying t…

or should I say there’s 1000’s of geese in the air! Both actually. The weather’s turned a corner (I hope) and the temperatures are slowly rising. Will likely have to recover the old Camaro from storage tomorrow so that’s a damn sure sign!Out for a driv…

Let’s hope this one holds for awhile.Now I can go to Mexico and not have to worry about this stupid shed!

I certainly didn’t expect a failure like this!Funny thing is it’s not really blowing all that hard today. This shed has stood up to 70+ MPH gusts and sustained winds of 40-50 MPH. I guess 2 yrs is about the limit for this shrink wrap plastic that gets …

It’s been awhile since I put anything on here so I thought I’d just bring you up to speed on what’s happening.Not much actually! Thursday was my last official day as a public servant. So I’m now technically unemployed. Lori and I went into Ottawa o…
