That's something someone whose trying to cover their tracks would say!That shit in the front happens to be directly beneath the cup holders. Use your imagination.
This van ain't been used to haul corpses around.
Unless my uncle Larry borrowed it...
Runs in th' family, eh?Unless my uncle Larry borrowed it...

Very much.
That barn is gonna look good when you're done.Actually this is the last of the old wood. I had to splice scraps together just to make a 69-½" for under the window. But I ran out of screws. So it didn't get put up yet.

The other day I discovered that if I remove the center console I can fit ten foot lumber in the van. No need to rumble the old 77 Ford around.

Yesterday they only had 3 decent ten foot planks so I got a 12 footer. It also fits in the van with the rear door closed.

you forget who you're talking to.
Try some Primer before the Top CoatThis is almost one whole gallon of oil base paint.
Latex would have gone further but wouldn't have soaked into the wood for good adhesion and sealing. And it would be peeling off before spring.
The only new wood is the one on the corner. The rest is old wood that soaked it up like a sponge.
I went ahead and painted it because I wanted to put that white vinyl corner piece on.

But that's where I left off.. I'm out of wood. I was only able to reuse about half of what I pulled off because the rest is either too rotted or was cut for the two windows that were there. I don't know why they thought that corner room needed two windows but I'm only putting in one.
I went and spent $100 on new wood last night after taking this picture.
It's supposed to rain all day today.
Most exhibitionists forego the primer under the Top Coat...
It took me 6 hours to cut 7 pieces of wood, sand the whiskers and corners down, and get ONE coat of primer on them.
Damn. What was the hold up?It took me 6 hours to cut 7 pieces of wood, sand the whiskers and corners down, and get ONE coat of primer on them.

That's all new wood except the red one. The small white one is going over the door to replace the rotted 1x4.
Messing with the stupid table saw. I forgot I pretty much had to rebuild the damn thing.
The usual... had to crush a hunnert beer cans on the hydraulic press. Because. Or sumthin...
Supposed to be 77 and SUNNY Wedsday..
Something like that.
or get drunk and get struck with lightning again
sheesh, yesterday, i pulled up all the tomato plants, bagged them for the garbage truck that was coming. cleaned up the entire garden, trimmed the hedges, cleaned the entire yard, washed my car, and cleaned the interior, repaired 2 windows, did the laundry, cleaned one of my guns, and i was done in less than 5 hours, even stopped for a sammich, which was NOT a good idea, tasted like gun bore cleaner, then took a shower, then watched 2 contractors break up a section of my sidewalk, and lay down new concrete, took a nap after all that............
Reaching your age is a statistical anomaly.
