			Thanks, Joe. I'm keeping the workspace in the basement, with some upgrades for the RC trucks. The shop area is all excavated except a bunch of boulders in VW beetle size. Need to crack them into smaller pieces to be able to move them out and away. This year was supposed to be a year of not much work, had more work than ever. So time for the shop build hasn't been there yet. Hope to resume soon.

			I LOVE that idea! If I had better than a plastic folding table as a workbench, I just may steal that idea.............but I don't.

			Am i the only one thinking the 2 lane blacktop needs the white Stop Here line at the intersection with the wood wrapped bench? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Maybe like a rolling hills and sky kind of mural on the block wall... Too many outlets and lights are a nice problem to have

			Hey, a little break in the shop overhaul. Let's test the workspace a bit with something different. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Got a new fella from Amazon, completely out of scale, or not. After some hacks, it should be a useful machine. [IMG]  IMG_3408 by Bo Wallen, on Flickr[/IMG]Put some Tamiya wheels next to it for comparing the size. [IMG]  IMG_3409 by Bo Wallen, on Flickr[/IMG]I also figure out some of the recipes for the makeover. [IMG]  IMG_3419 by Bo Wallen, on Flickr[/IMG]After some serious hacks, it should turn out somewhat like this one. [IMG]  Kalmar by Bo Wallen, on Flickr[/IMG]Oh well let the cutting begin, order some more parts.  |

			Nice!  
		
		
		
		
		
		
			I was wondering when someone would start making one into a Hyster or container stacker. I didn't realize they were big enough that semi wheels fit.
