Wade...
 Here's a video of a small wood heater I made a few years ago.
 I'll get some pics of the completed thing when I can.

another update: my progress may be slow, but at least it's gradual. I think I'm finished with the garage lighting, as I feel the need to wear sunblock 30 in there.



yeah, it's still cluttered, but, believe it or not, it's getting better all the time. Threw some stuff away, gave some stuff to the neighborhood tweaker, sold some stuff and arranged a bunch more.



shelving made from John Deere crates are my favorite, unless they're old, yellow and made of aluminum:



Maybe there will be room to work on a bike soon  :umm:

And thanks for the tip on the Barrinas, Mark. They're great lights at a great price!

It's been a good week. I won't bore you with all the details, but I am a happy and grateful man. My boss retired one of our lifts as "scrap" and let me know that I should make it go away.



It needs a hose repaired and one pivot tightened up, and it will be ready to go! It's a Handy motorcycle lift with 8" side extensions (not pictured), so it will handle riding mowers nicely. Good things come to those who wait.

Very nice Wade. I have one of those lifts. They are very "handy". Hopefully it's an easy fix and gives you many years of service.

Work station is finally finished, and I'm pretty pleased. YZ80 rim as power cord hanger (supervised by Bib). I added a switch to select the drill press or belt sander, and a 120 VAC outlet for corded tools.

The power cord hanger "rim" is brilliant. I'm gonna copy that!

Found these "tin" signs on the clearance shelf at Tractor Supply today. More garage art!
Don't worry, Dennis, I got one for you
