We had a cable spool as a coffee table with high times cartoons decoupaged around it growing up. Cinder block entertainment center to match as well.

 

My dad made our carpet out of a bunch of salesman samples too. A big Zig-Zag man painted on the wall. Child of the 70's and all.

 

Yep ... necessity was/is still the mother of invention.

 

Morning, Lou! Cinder blocks, plywood, and milk crates.

 

That movie Mask was as about as close to my childhood as I've ever seen.

 

Anyone else taking this week off? Can't imagine trying to work in those snowy cold conditions.

 

Werkin' Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday ... Then off 'til 2017

 

I am werkin this week. But it ought to be very slow this week and next. Was hoping to get my "laptop refresh" invitation for werk and migrate to the new one from the old one during this slow 2 week period but the invitation never came.

 

Working all week here. X-mas party on Friday which means cleanup day.

 

I use to open up the shop on Christmas Eve morning and (usually ) it wasn't long before someone strolled in with a bottle of "cheer" ... needless to say, it was "tools down and glasses up"
