That is my current shed.
Really tough to do anything in there.
With any luck, I will be enlarging it in a few months.
It’s only 7’ x 9’ currently.
I’m going to double it to 18’.
Currently cannot layout my rod lathe in there.  Also, all the shelves are packed, and I have a ton of things in a 5’ x 10’ storage unit I’m renting.

The toon is in the driveway.
I will put a full day in on it tomorrow.
The original plan was 2 full days, tomorrow and Friday.
But my brother David fell Monday and I have to take him to the VA Friday morning.  We are pretty sure he broke his shoulder and/or collar bone.  We’ll see.
At least I’ll get tomorrow to work on the boat.  Stay tuned.

Thanks guys.
If he hadn't fallen, I might have pushed him.
 ;)

As they say, every family has one.

He's my brother, so I need to help him.

So did he break something? Or did I miss it?

 Hope it doesn’t look like mine a couple years ago..

Dunno
I’m in ER now.
I decided to take him today cause it looked like rain.
We will see.


I hope it needs to be rebroke or reset.

I had a couple brothers like that.
If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

A little over 4.5 hrs in the ER
He has a broken forearm.
Not a compound fracture, but a good one.  Had to be pretty painful.

He’s home.
And, yes Bob, we take care of our siblings, even when we would rather be working on our boat.

The boat!
I got 1.5 hrs of work done before it got dark.  Then went to Home Depot for some stainless steel fasteners.  Also took Donna for some Chinese.   8)
When home took out the trash cans and spent a half hour or so in my shed assembling the HDS brackets to the RAM mounts with the new fasteners.
I’m whipped!
Now the Sabres’ game.
I’m gonna sleep in till 8 tomorrow morning and have a leisurely bfast.
Then I get back to work on that boat.
The cell phone will only be used to supply music to the usb speaker - no texts or phone calls.
