    Thanks.
    If you can believe it, I was at a job site 4 years ago and the remodel called for the throw-away of 8 of those doors! :headbang: They are knotty pine with mortise and tenon construction. Very solidly built; some were exterior and some were interior. Also got the frames for 7 of em...the 8th was damaged beyond repair.

    I would also like to add that these used doors drove 99 absolutely nuts for the past 3 years 11 and one half months!!!......What are you going to do with those????....Look at the room they're taking up!....

    I like how you have plenty of electrical outlets along the wall and at a good height.

    You come down and help me get my bathroom looking as sharp as your place and I will make a plate of nachos just for you. Deal? :)

    Kinda makes you think that I find it increasingly difficult to bend over, no? :D
    I am planning to put a counter/workbench along one wall. Two workbenches along another with eventual cabinets above and saws (compound miter, table and band saw)
    Third wall is reserved for an antique player piano (storage)

    Ugg, my drive belt on the mtd lawn tractor chunked a piece out and now I have to replace that. Of course I just started mowing the lawn when it went.

    It looks like a pita to replace when I can find one. It appears I have to remove the mowing deck, then I can replace the belt.

    I'm hoping fleet farm has one on my way home tomorrow after work.

    Hate to admit this, but after watching an instructional video ... I like it! :wacky: The important part is that you only want a "hint" of it on your toast - any more and it is way too powerful.

    I watch as much football as I can. It does impact my wood processing, but I sure love watching the game, and I play in 2 work fantasy football leagues.

    While the lawn is growing, and the weather is warm enough. It's hard to do more than mow the lawn, yeah especially when the tractor can move on its own doh!, Get out a day on the lake, and then do some other stuff around the house. When it gets too cold for boating, that will make this easier.

    I got about 1/4" from that storm. That pretty much tripled my rain total for the last 2+ weeks. Trees knocked down and electric out a couple towns over, but not here.
