Anyone else out in the shop?

I mounted 150 watt flood light above the hood area. It really helps with light, many times I do not need a trouble light. I also put a 100 watt light at each wheel on the ceiling.



I bought a hobby farm awhile ago and just made one of the buildings into the car shop.



It turned out well. I had hay in it for the first year for my horses.

While putting these under drive pulleys on I ground down the belt tensioner bolt. I only had to take a little off the edge of the washer part of the bolt so that it would clear the frame. I always like making the car easier to work on. On mine the bolt would hit the frame part and take forever to unscrew, so it's fixed now.

The bottom floor cement was put in 1936 it's signed. There is an outlet that is signed as installed in 1946. I put the windows in, and need to paint the building still. The horses brought to many flies over there so I kicked them out, but they got the big barn.

No problems with them in four years, I keep a lot of bait out though.
