Thanks Gary. Dan,no green stuff left......200' of that cable is expensive!! Doug saved another weeks worth of cans for another trip??? No sense coming to BC....beer fridge is MT and the Liquor stores are all sold out...nothing but water in BC and lots of it!
Having a single garage that is jam packed and has no heat limited my garage activity unfortunately LOL. But I did repurpose some of my grandmothers old frames for these antique parks passes:
Those look great. I like the backdrop of maple leaves and birch bark especially.

You can get a trailer load shipped in from the mainland by the time I get there.

Ouch that's gonna hurt drilling holes in this car.
If no one had ever seen the car before, 99 out of a 100 would not know the difference Add the tach, cut the hole and add 4 speed . and double its value
Stripping three layers of wallpaper in what I hope will be my "man cave". I was using one of those little steamers which was taking way too much time. I bit the bullet and bought a Wagner wallpaper steamer which has a large applicator for the steam. It's making the job easier but still tedious. I'm finding lot's of sins in the plaster underneath. Not sure how I'm going to tackle that- I really should gut it down to the studs and drywall but that's a bit more $$ and labour that I would like to do. We repaired the plaster in my son's room and it turned out pretty well. From what I've seen plaster is never as "straight" and perfect as drywall anyway. That's likely the reason people wallpapered over the walls in the first place. I've also considered using paintable wallpaper however I hate applying wallpaper! The wife of a co-worker told me she loves to apply wallpaper. Maybe I can talk her into doing it for me!

That is the only way I deal with multi-layered wallpaper on paster & lathe ... The easiest way and most perfect way, but very messy.

That's too warm for working. Only good for drinking beer and watching paint dry. But I'm sure that's the plan.
Same thought I had.
Well, other than the beer drinking part anyway...........!
15 is a nice shop temp.
That's the plan....now I can paint James car, sit back and watch the paint dry. Just needed to know if I could Bake the paint! Cool is good.....stripping down in the shop is never a good idea!!
