Thanks. The bins are from harbor freight, it's a 20 pack for $15 that comes with mounting rails. I used three of those on this. The rest is 5/8 plywood. I have about $100 in it all together. I built on to the end of a big cabinet. If I had it to do over I would have made it as it's own free standing unit.

I've been working on organizing hardware in the shop. I'm tired of the over packed storage containers and coffee cans full of mixed junk. So I built this. I thought it would be a lot bigger than I needed. It is actually filling up a lot faster than I expected.

Yeah but I make a pretty loyal companion if you can get used to me dragging my butt across the carpet.

Back in my younger, wilder days I used to say "Beer gets me tipsy, whiskey gets me drunk, tequila gets me felony charges." For seven years my wife stayed home with the kids while I worked. She started back working a couple weeks ago, and I am off this week. Since she always did fine job keeping the house I thought I would do that for her while she was gone, so I was gonna take care of the kids, do the cleaning, and have supper ready this week. I didn't even make it through the first day before I started drinking on the job. I dont think I'm meant to be domesticated.

I found an old field cultivator that my grandpa had bought new around 1950 sitting behind my uncle's barn. It had sitting for decades. It had the JD two point hitch. So I built a 3 point for it, I'm gonna put it into garden duty.

When I was probably 11 or 12 I was stacking hay bales on the wagon with my dad when he offered me my first RedMan. I of course was always trying to prove that I was grown so I accepted. It was a sunny day, hotter than ****. I did ok for a few minutes, but it wasn't long until I was sitting on the edge of the wagon with my head hanging. Dad says "You doing ok? You dont look so good." "I'm fine" I told him between gags. He was laughing under his breath for the rest of the day.

My youngest helper. Trying to see if we can make the plow we saved from going to the scrapyard usable.

I have an old grainery that I am converting into a workshop. Mechanic shop downstairs, woodshop upstairs. I know it was common practice in the old days to use license plates to cover holes, but I guess during the depression they tried to get a little extra use out of everything. I'm going to try to patch them back together to put up on the wall.

When I was in high school I came home from a party after having girl trouble. I asked my dad if he had any advice on women. He told me "Women are like a television. You don't know how they work, or why they work. You're just glad that they're there."
