Actually no. But only because I was so beat to **** after 2 days of hard labor. The old bones don't like it.

I have the wall sealed off with plastic so no fear of intruders here in God's country other than maybe a Mountain Lion.

Declare your home a "Mountain Lion free zone". That should do the trick

Re-morning, Woods...lost in the internet again. This time, I'm starting all over to learn sheet metal welding. Haven't done any welding in 13-14 yrs since I built the topless Z. Taught myself back then and considered myself a "functional welder" but I learned to be a good grinder. 75% of my welding back then was doing sheet metal. Originally, I thought that I'd cut the metal for the bike gas tank, tack weld it and have a friend do all the finish welding, but I realized that would be a slap to my bull headed way of doing things..gota do it myslf. Sure wish I lived closer to Lou, he could take me as an apprentice for a day..

It seems so simple. Why didn't I think of that?

And effective too. What’s the plan on the door? Do you have a good sized header? Are you going to fill in the concrete blocks? Vapor barrier?
