    Of course. If you're going to do something...do it right.

    Caffeine going down, hope to get a little work done around the house for a few hours this morning. Then I have to go in for some overtime. :picard:Why did I do that to myself? Family decided to have a cook out many days after I took the overtime. Oh well, my wife and kids will go and enjoy the good company and eat good food.:)

    Look what the birds planted. Every year this happens. Those sunflowers are apt to grow anywhere. I have even had them come up in my hanging flower planters.

    Transit. Added OEM wiring that wasn't factory installed. Had to remove a lot if plastic in the cabin and splice into a birds nest of wire at the ECM. Battery is located under the drivers seat and takes 10 minutes to get to. The instructions were not great either. Took about 4 hours...a pro probably could have done it in half that though.

    If I had to do it again I would have gone with an aftermarket "T" kit. LED tail lights have made trailer wiring a lot harder than it used to be.

    I had to unload this load of freshly cut Amish lumber by myself. Did a little yesterday and the rest today. Lot of 2x8x14s, heavy stuff. We don't have a smiley playing a sad song on a tiny fiddle do we Grizzly Adam ? You know, so when guys like me are a whining about the hard work we did and ...... :rofl: :lol:

    Anywho, here is the proof.:p image.jpeg

    Now when I got down to the 8x8x12-6" I had to use a lil help:D

    Got the workshop walls done and primed them all along with the ceilings. Next, some paint and then start on the french door project.

    I finally put my insomnia to work. I was wide awake at 2:30 this morning and waited around in bed hoping to fall back asleep. Finally, at 4:15, I got up-brewed a pot of coffee and headed out to the workshop to finish priming the walls/ceiling. !0:30 was all done, but felt like I had one of those hangovers the rest of the day.......
