    The access hatch is about 5 feet above the stairs on the left in the photo. The heat run on the right is about 16" from the hatch - blocking it handily.

    There is plenty of room on the other side, my problem is getting over the heat run without putting my knee on the piece of wood I'm currently sitting on.

    Wife bought one a couple years ago for ours. They love it. Last weekend they were taking turns pushing each other as high as they could and jumping off into a pile of leaves. Win for me since they raked all the leaves up. I just had to put them in the trailer when they were done.

    Fellers, don't let those tidy, everything in it's place guys ( like @Delta09 ) :bowdown:
    tell you that clutter is a bad thing...

    Most of this wood came with the house 30 years ago - I finally found a use for it.

    Behold - the new crawl-way...

    ...or in my case butt-way.

    Is it more better or less bad?? :confused:

    My shop is a mess during a build. I straighten it up right before the next build so I can find stuff.

    Intermediate bench update:
    Tonight I screwed all the skirt and bracing pieces together and marked them. Tomorrow night I disassemble glue and reassemble. Only way, at least with wood, to make this work is mark every piece and reassemble that exact way. Here is the funny part... I marked all 90s with numerals and all 45 joints with letters.
    Joint count is 10 for 90s and up to the letter R, or 18 45 joints!

    I was just at Walmart. I didn't see any of the turkey patch things but I didn't go into the lube aisle, either. :notsure:

    Well fellers, I just got out of a well earned shower -- about 10 hours today.

    Feel like I got my @$$ kicked, if I could keep up this activity level I would be fit & trim...
    .
    .
    .
    ... or dead. :bananadead:

    The cellar is downright luxurious compared to that attic - more to go. :pout:

    The door to get in is over the stairs -- about 5 feet over the stairs o_O.
    There is a landing about five feet to the left of the door, WTH didn't they put the door on the landing...

    People who are long dead >>:smack:<< Rusty

    The garage generally looks like a tornado hit a flea market. :anonymous:

    Good morning everyone :hattip:

    It’s been about a decade since the second to last time I got pulled over. I knew it was for speeding (on the highway)…

    I got pulled over last night and did not have a clue and I got to say I got really nervous :rofl:. Really freaked me out. The cop was fine, just doing his job and matter of factly said I had a headlight out. No ticket but he did take and run my license and registration. Make me think of the movies when authorities demand “papers”…

    Funny thing is that I’m semi-obsessive about all the lights on our vehicles…:annoyed:

    Luckily, the parts store was still opened and it was the drivers side bulb. Change it in 10 minutes, 5 of that looking for the dielectric grease. I’ll do the passenger side this weekend ( it’s a PITA for me as the springy clip has broken off and it both sided need to get ‘hooked’
