    forecast is 60s and 30s for the weekend. Storms Monday night.
    On the bright side I've burned the "new" smell out of the furnace in the camper already

    it's just super sensitive. A little condensation and next thing you know BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!

    Morning Everyone !!!!! :hattip:

    Currently 62° clear , High 79° and light breeze from the North

    Got woke up at 0300hrs and at 0530hrs from people calling me trying to get inside the gate of the gated community I live in . Either its guests or residents who forgot their remote to open the gate . This happens to me a few times a year as my number is near the top of the call box

    Today I'm going to put up and display my US Marine Corps flag and my POW MIA flag

    I'm sure space is valuable in there, but if you can find a small desktop style fan that can move the heat and steam away from the detector it may help. Popping open a roof vent a notch or 2 while you're cooking will help with that too.

    I had to do the fan trick with my camp trailer.

    But that lets all my heat out!
    Once the smoke detector goes I turn on the hood vent fan and crack the sink window just a smidge. Thats enough to keep it quiet.

    Getting rain now, still cold 50ish. I have retreated to the camper. Thought maybe I should have just stayed home, checked the forecast and its 10° cooler with snow expected later o_O guess I'm better off here after all! @MtnAltitude

    Wanted to do this for a while.
    I need room in the garage for the old fridge that will be replaced.
    So quandary..
    Need to get rid of 3 cabinets.
    Cannot lose storage space for big floor items.
    Need to hide my shit..lol.
    So here we are.

    Building a floor supported wall cabinet here..

    420FBB0B-D094-4F09-9E13-461505DDEE37.jpg

    So pulled out my fold out work bench

    CCE80BB6-ABE5-47D8-97F5-D1559DDF99EA.jpg

    So I measured like 5 times and changed my ideas 3 times.
    Then started cutting like hell..

    5AEEFECD-6526-42F3-865B-C7CEE194D670.jpg

    So started prelim assembly.
    And squared to the wall.

    64097278-F7BB-43AD-A082-BDC8F1615EA8.jpg


    And started to assemble the shelves.

    F420A15D-8B9A-47A8-AD53-33E8BA5B98F3.jpg

    So can still store my salamander and other big items.
    Not to bad for the first day.
    Had to overhaul the dam skill saw as the brushes are worn out.
    Died half way through the day.
    Hope it lasts to project completion.
    So now one more shelf and then start to enclose it.
    I still have access to my outlet.

    That’s what I’ve been doing...
