    Great job! I was looking for cables and just about noticed the Wiremold (or maybe a different brand). That's the perfect color because I could hardly see it.

    Also nice wood stove insert!

    Now why did they have to send me this.
    I can both get into trouble and go broke at the same time.
    You can literally put a whole car together new.

    first tool at our age - a lift. They're "cheap" now.

    i'm actually always looking for a gas station that's kinda by itself & for sale & has a lift or two. I could live in the lobby area. :thumbsup:

    I am only now getting into "gaming" on the PC. Wife wanted to upgrade so I am getting her 2 year old PC (she is the gamer in the house). I have no idea what I will end up playing, if anything.

    I had to gut our rav4 after I bought it. Got it in January 2018 and when the weather warmed up we noticed smells, and behold, many mouse nests which the PO totally knew about but did not disclose. It was a fun project still.

    That looks all too familiar. The car at work, the only nest I saw was under the intake.
