Great site. Kinda bitchy bunch though.

If you take the time to go through the back pages, eventually you will find most of the gold. Now I have to go out and get some materials to make some upper cabinets. See what you did.

I've been a member for about 2 years now. Some great ideas and tips that I've used in my own shop.

Gregg-

That's a beautiful build, I hope you find where you're looking for....

I'm a bachelor this week, the silence is golden, even in the midst of coastal OC.

Rob,

Thanks. I don't think I posted the finished results. I only moved in a couple of months ago.

And yes, I have found what I'm looking for. To be honest, my place is rather nice. It's long story. I put my place up for sale to try and buy a property that isn't for sale. But I got a note from my realtor a week or so ago that the place is about to come up for sale for the first time since 1974. I'm trying to just not be anxious and let life work. But I'm going nuts waiting for a buyer, and hoping I can pull off this transition. It's a gorgeous farm just a couple of miles from where I am now.

Ok, enough of my blabbing. I should have never posted that link. Back to the Porsche intake work. Almost ready for powder coating the intake.

Thanks. I'm really happy with how it came out. Yesterday I decided to start in on a suspended mezzanine that runs the entire length of the back of the shop. A raised bedroom. With a steel circular staircase. I just have to get this 928 buttoned up and get started on the design. I'm having fun.
