Nice job Rian. It always feels good to clean up a mess like that and it work to boot!

Much Much happier Bill.

I just hated the look of it, and more importantly the fact it was so badly done and liable to fail at any time.


People who do such terrible work never realise that doing it right takes just as much effort and time.





Quick overnight update from Dennis and the gas station replica and storage space for collected treasures that he is building.

I guess they are never truely done.

He is busy painting and staining the last few interior boards and trim, but has started to mount some of his treasures collected over time.


Concrete island and drive still to come for the restored gas pumps and other equipment like tyre changers he grew up with, all restored and painted correctly.







Looking forward to when the air is plumbed in and the driveway bell and tyre pump both work as well.

In the mean time he is also helping Adam and Hanna build the house and shop on their property next door. So not a lot of free time.

Have a good week.
