Default Re: Winter without a project?

Since I have no heat in my shop where I work on trucks, I sneak up to my warm cabinet shop to set greasy parts etc on the woodstove so they can soften up. Then gunk and parts brush, laquer thinner, scotchbrite, sandpaper, air hose and a coat of red primer before I retire for the evening. It has worked out well for over 40 years. Woodshop pays for the heat and by early evening the dust has settled well enough for the kind of painting I do. Don't git much better than a day like this. Signed, 'Easily Amused'....
