  1. A few iphone pictures from some current efforts

    The DIY continues unabated. I decided to get the garage side of the walls sheetrocked with 5/8" material (fire grade). That way I could soon use those walls to better use, hanging tools of them or simply using them to lean stuff against. The poofy insulation bats were annoying, and not helping keep the temperature in my house as well as it should.

    It took a couple of hours one afternoon to get the pieces cut and installed.

  2. 2011 is here, and I'm still ordering new stuff

    Today, the package from EzTube arrived. I'll be able to get the light rack built soon, as well as install its suspension kit above.

    Now that Savko is open for business again, I placed my order for all my plumbing needs. I still need to find 10' of 1.5" black spaflex, if any of you happen to have a source. They were all out.

    I placed the order (acrylic) for my new sump, which will arrive tomorrow. I think I'll be building sumps all week for everyone.

  5. Ordering goodies

    I ordered the rolling kit for the new light rack from McMaster yesterday. www.mcmaster.com - Part # 1223A22

    Then I ordered all the parts from www.EzTube.com to make the light rack itself. Wes was kind enough to make me a break out image of the order. It should ship out tomorrow and arrive next week.
