Default Refinishing Center Caps: Virtual Garage Door Open (Webcam)

I am polishing and painting my center caps from my original manhole covers tonight ( 4/24). The only interesting part about that is I will have the garage webcam on, so please drop by to comment or just say hi!

Will it be exciting? No.
Will there be great commentary, witty dialog, hot supermodels? No.
Will it be educational? Probably not.

But it is a way for virtual neighbors to drop by and say hi, just like when I have my regular garage door open and am working on the 928. Pop in, have a beer, make a comment, just be neighborly, only without all the bothersome actual travel to my house.

I am doing the same thing tonight, but I left my camera at the shop, maybe pics tomorrow.

A bit tedious isn't it.

It can be tedious. Not hard, just slow going..but the results are gratifying..

Garage Cam going live again today, Aug 21. Same deal as before:

Will it be exciting? No.
Will there be great commentary, witty dialog, hot supermodels? No.
Will it be educational? Probably not.

Main objective is to fix my A/C Diaphragms ( new parts courtesy Roger @ 928srus), so a lot of "in car" console work. Using these resources:
