And the Vise and Workbench get turned upside-down to fit into the Box

The Box rolls under the bed from the garage for storage

Cold now......headed off to bed..................Arrrrgh

Sorry for my sturdy swivel leading to vise bench destruction - but this looks like a BIG silver lining! Nice organization.

HiYa.......Thanks..........Shhhhhh ! It was just an excuse to upgrade......Scrap Plywood saved from the Fire U-Know !

Wow, abnorm! Great work. I'm a bit surprised you are still in Pahrump. 0.0
Oh, I managed to figure out the loose spark igniter on the wave heater. Seems a washer thingy came loose which was what the spark thing screwed into. How's that for technical terms? Lol Works now, just in time for the cold.

Pesky wind is keeping me from wanting to work on projects so I am escaping towards Quartzsite on Sunday or Monday. The wind speeds are going to be much more moderate in Q according to the 10 day forecast.

I might show up at Van aid for a while to find a volunteer to help me glue my trailer headliner in place. Much easier to do with a partner. Tall men should not apply, it will not be an easy job for them

 

[abnorm]

^^ You never told me your "Handle"...........Glad you got it fixed

Electrical gremlins flew in on the wind. Not one but two of them. One attacked the 12v plug on my fridge, the other won’t let the controller to my diesel Nordic stove/heater even think about turning on.

No advice or help required. Just whining a bit about having more maintenance chores to do.

Different spelling though. Tyll spelled it Van Aid, which is the right way to spell it. Adding an e on the end of the word changes the meaning to being a person’s occupation. Example … an aide to a US senator.

No danger of that no matter how you spell it

Cat herding is never going to look organized or even coordinated.

 

[GotSmart]

Cat herding is poetry in motion.

Just like playing 3D chess.

Doug knows how to herd cats.

Yes Doug is excellent at herding the two cats who live in his van. In fact they are very well trained cats. As are the ones who live in your motorhome.

It is the free range, feral cats who walk upright on 2 legs, who are very difficult to herd.
