Shambles Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 We signed the contract for our new, 3 bay shop. Construction will begin next week, weather permitting. That sky looks foreboding. Frank's getting the lot cleaned up while we don't have much inventory. Well actually, NO inventory. Sold every last car we got in and rolling in cash! Bubba, Frank, and whats-his-name in there putting the bookshelves together are on overtime AGAIN! I think Connie hooked up with that college kid 'cause she left early and had a glint in her eye... if you know what I mean. I let 'em all have tomorrow off for New Year's. I think Frank sent Connie to the whiskey store for his holiday cheer 'cause I saw a suspicious brown bag in the office with "Frank" written on it in her handwriting. He lost his license and can't drive... remember? He can walk across the cow pasture to work... so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( nice shop, John ). David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shambles Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 Yeah, that's all old 'Whats-his-name' ever does. When Frank's not watching, he moseys into the office, pours himself a cup, then sneaks a shot of Frank's Old Grandad outta the desk drawer. I got the shop from a seller on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/str/desales. He customized it for me, adding the front wall and doors and a roof panel. Great guy to work with.

iamsuperdan Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 The hard part is finding the space! A 1/25 scale building is bad enough, but I'm thinking about more buildings. Wifey will not be amused. lolz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can keep it around only long enough to take pictures.... ? Reminds me of that insurance commercial with Peyton Manning and Brad Paisley, where they're walking through that super huge diorama of "his".... Would that not be AWESOME!!!!
