Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build

I know this is not a home remodel site but I'm feeling good about being finished and the wife is happy so that means some garage time will not be frowned upon.
I have not be procrastinating as you can see. But now I get to disappear and hide in the garage until a new honey do list emerges.






Now back to the truck.

Thanks buddy.

I'm so happy to be done with this thing I don't know what to do. I did not get to touch the truck for months.

Don't let your wife see this. Women have lots of plans with your money and time.lol

In all honesty it really needed to be done. I think it's bought me a couple of months in the garage before she has any more bright ideas.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build

Nice work Kabwe.

We all have to fall on the sword every now and then unless we want to live in our garages permanently.

Very nice work. You should feel proud about the results.

Now get back out in the garage, before you turn into an interior designer.

The bathroom looks excellent BAM,

Wait till she has the thought "you know, the bathroom looks great honey. I bet WE can make the kitchen look even better"

LOL, thats how I get drug into those kinda things, its always "WE" until the work starts then it's "I am busy with this today but I will help out tomorrow".

All kidding aside, I am sure she is very pleased with it.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build

Kabwe, nice job on the bathroom. You have to keep them happy. I just painted and put wainscoting for the back splash and on a wall in our kitchen. Although she still does not seem happy! They never are! Now get back in the garage and work on the truck.
