Getting ready for winter. Everything on the shelves and on the floor plus the shelves and pallet rack were in a 10X24 storage locker for 2 years after we moved. I brought it all home in late August and have been picking away at getting it "organized" and off the floor.








I needed to get it all out of the way to get my camper back in the corner. It was away getting repaired over summer and is back now. Yesterday, I moved the majority of the "stuff" and got the camper in and today, I shuffled enough of the rest to the other side of the building to get my '54 inside and off my trailer for the winter.








Still need to get the left side cleaned out so I can put all the porch furniture behind the '38. All the cushions got cleaned and put in the camper yesterday. Blast cabinet needs to get moved to the front shop so I can use it again. I miss not having that available.

Put a clutch and slave cylinder in my 1983 BMW 745i turbo car.

Put on two new tires I had mounted and balanced yesterday, and set the toe.

Installed a new set of LED sequential tail lights in my son's 2015 Camaro to match the LED headlights we put in a month ago. He is definitely liking this "carguy" thing now.

A month ago, I bought a shed "kit". I had a pad cut out behind the front shop and a gravel base made. I spent the past 4 weekends building it. My wife fell on the back steps of the porch in August and cracked a vertebrae and isn't able to help me with this, so thankfully, our son did with the heavier lifting, but I built the majority of this by myself. People ask me what "retirement" is like. I tell them I work 10 hour days and get re-tired every evening...














This shed is for all the yard equipment and gardening tools. Since this pic, it's nearly full now.

Well, this might be a little different. Painted the fuel tank for a 1941 De Havilland DH.82C Tiger Moth. For those not familiar...here's a pic. As I am getting my car ready for MCACN, this was a nice distraction.

Rear axle seals and brakes (one side contaminated by gear lube). Seals themselves were fine, just undersized so they just loosened and spun in the opening instead of friction sealing. Found some slightly upsized replacements. I’ve been doing drum brakes every 3-5 years for the last 25 years, and it’s never been enough to keep me from having to re-learn it every damn time.
