But I just don't feel excited. Weird feeling. To many other things happening right now. I need to get into a vacation mindset for this.

Do you or Mr. Madwi have swivel sockets and impact stuff for the demon bolts? I was thinking i'd be under the car applying constantly pressure to the bar, Madwi could be spotter and make sure we aren't slipping, and you use a breaker bar like crazy on them.

CF door handles arrived

I know some things. haha. Just want to be prepared. Debating on grabbing an extractor kit encase we do end up snapping a bolt off.

I'll do it after I get back. Needs to get inspected, tires done, etc anyways.

JARblue 05-07-2018 03:09 PM

Thinking I might pretend I'm in the Falkland Islands and go home.

So shiny after a quick wax with collinite. Now to try and wait until Friday to install with adhesive. I sorta want to just slap them on now...

Why would you even pretend to in the Falklands to begin with. That wind swept rock.

Looks good.

Off to work. Thinking about Jimmy John's #5, no onions, add hot peppers. :yum:

Leingod 05-07-2018 04:55 PM

I skipped clear coating like some recommended. Just heavily applied collinite. If they yellow, they yellow.

StevenSlice 05-07-2018 05:04 PM

Leingod are your windows tinted?

Looks very fishbowl-y in that picture

Trying to put the finishing touches on my new man cave that I’ve been building for 3 months now.

Today I brought my floor jack in the house and jacked up my 1000 lb pool table and carefully rolled it over the new floor I just installed... it took me two and a half hours to move it 50 feet all by myself, but all went well....

I had to make a bunch of 24” squares of plywood and hopscotch them across the flloor but it worked

eastwest2300 05-07-2018 09:40 PM

nice job dude.. wow.

Thanks. The doors in the back are a new office for me on the left. And the right door is a new half bath. Just my wife and I have lived here for 23 years now and she wanted this additional bathroom number #5. (Not to be confused with Mambo #5...:icon17:)

It was a fair amount of work but I did it all myself without hiring anyone which always makes me smile...

eastwest2300 05-07-2018 09:48 PM

hell yeah man, thats fricken awesome..

madwi 05-07-2018 09:53 PM

Wishin' I was in the lazyboy chair. This working crap is for suckers.

Heres a couple more shots. One looking back the other way.

The door on the right by the fridge is the new wine cellar. It is a climate controlled room about 4x10 for her wine

The door on the left by the bar is just a closet that hides the air handler that was sitting there...

madwi 05-07-2018 09:58 PM

Looks great and not overcrowded. :tup:
