That’s the plan.   I’ll hanger the 2x8’s off the doubled 2x8 header.  Sheet it and hand rail also.  Maybe leave that side open for air and maybe large things to fit upstairs.   

But flooring for sure

Nate, you should pickle some green beans! Those and asparagus pickled are the best! Also, I would like a jar of your hot salsa! We have home made habanero paste in the fridge we like to use in food.
We do that,  I love putting some jalapeños in there also,  spicy pickled green beans so great!

A neighbor / friend has a 300 pound pig.   Discussion started about me cooking the whole pig in the ground and it being fun to try.


This is honestly never something I have read about past “ hum.... that looks good”.

With Covid prices an supply are going crazy,  that truck here is about that price all day long

Would I buy it not high priced no.   Is it a really good motor trans combo. Heck yeah.  I like the idea of that instead of a diesel.  Just haven’t pulled with one to verify

Now I look at the corner and see the things rolled in like a lawnmower, quad, Rotherham things that belong in a trailer or a shed I don’t have.   Next project I guess.   

Still need stairs and mommas garage door powered

Charles, I am planning on using the existing racks I already have.  I plan on seeing how much of the shelf I need
And maybe removing some racks

I have these and plan on cutting them down in height

Morning progress, stopping point until I get rail material and one of my framer buddies to help me see how short I can make my steps.   


The garage brackets removed easy enough.  Just need to do the other things mentioned

Going to lay out my shelf spaces and see what’s left.

I have power here at the grey box mid wall.  I could see if there is power above it in the attic.   But I assume they ran that horizontally and to go up I’d be going through floor joists that won’t be fun

I have the same wheel as you in the shed,  I like the mixed machine and black look.   
I’ll not be excited about a forced 20 on a new truck.m when it happens

Wider wheel might help ya not look so top heavy also

Need to figure out something, I don’t want wires hanging but powering the garage will look ugly unless I crawl into the attic and insulation

That insulation is 2-3 feet thick blown in.   Not a good time of year to be up there,

I did get two rows of sheeting on,   I cut down the garage door parts.  Next I need to wire it back up in a non pain in the butt manner. 

Then sheet the rest

Boy are they proud of that little keyed system $300 bucks for some plates.

Much to my my disdain I need airbags for my truck. I hate doing what other people recommend lol

This is what I have in mind since the new truck plan has been put on hold ( thanks covid-19). 

Looking at these

Air Lift 57275 LoadLifter 5000 Series Rear Air Spring Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CFQ2XM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_bXGmFbC9T9B4W

Air Lift 52420 Air Lift Spacers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079WW31VC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_D3GmFb3R2C93X


Does anyone have a reason to buy the bags with the rubber bump stops in them for the extra $$$ the kit has me remove the stock bumps out

First Cub Scout meeting of the season last night. I guess I am the new assistant Webelos leader.  I enjoy helping out and doing the behind the scenes stuff.

The Eagles club sponsors our troop. It just so happens the guy in charge of getting what we need for the troop had an affair with my first wife. Pretty much off and on the whole 11 years we were married. We dont like each other much. But, we have a good network. I shouldn't have to deal with him much.
You have a functioning scout unit in you area?  After the bankruptcy and the Mormon church pulled out it all stopped here

Ken,

I know I’m not the most versed in gooseneck but I have found the most simple is to leave the trailer just low enough when I bump the ball on the hitch is tells me I am close and then push a little further
