Weekend project with some pics.
« on: March 05, 2006 - 06:43:40 PM »
Got some work done out in the shop yhis weekend. I know how everyone loves pic so i thought i would share some. First one is of the new lights i installed on saturday. Took out all of the cadescent light and installed all new flourecent. It is a lot better out there now. Also started working on the rotisserie on sunday. Got most of the steel cut for the ends and the joints prepped for welding. Ordered the wheels from northertool and the jacks from harbourfreight. Any way on with the pics.

Thanks Tom

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Looking good ! And once you finish and have used the rotisserie you can upgrade whatever element of the shop/tools you wish by just renting that puppy out. :cheers:

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I will keep posting pics of the progress of the car and rotis as long as someone is interested. I love my shop and owe alotta thanks to my wife for letting me go crazy on a couple of the purchases (lights,welder,aircomp,horizontial bandsaw) but i assured her it would pay for itself with this car and how much easier it would make the repair.   
Thanks Crank
