Just a quick note on a different tangent. My Brother in law made a smoker out of an old fridge, but it has to be one with the metal interior, plastic does not like the heat. I like your Idea of an insulated storage for paints, I will make use of that Idea at the shop When/If I ever get it cleaned out.

I modified a combination wrench to fit around and under an EATON M90 supercharger. The right front sparkplug is in a difficult place, slightly under the supercharger. The supercharger is on a C69A Ford Flathead V8, in a 1940 Ford.
This is my second and final modification to this wrench. It works.

I have subscribed to this You Tube channel. I know it is about woodwork, but there is much to be learned and ideas do cross over. Take a look, it is worth the time.

I did an hour of anatomical research on a site called something, something Hub. I did some more on-line research to find a company that makes a slip yolk eliminator for an NVG 241c transfer case. I made time to move some my ramp to the back door because a Craigslist buyer is coming in the morning, Of course other things had to me moved first. I am reducing inventory.

Been rearranging the new garage to fit all the new toys. Had to also fit The IH truck in there with the new car. Went down to the dealer to have the oil changed in my 2015 Chevy 3500 double cab long bed and ended up trading my truck for a 2017 370z.

Well, well, the Craigslist buyer for the ramp system, I had advertised, showed up, on time, and bought the ramp system. After fielding dozens of really mindless questions and suggestions the grinding on the price started but ended where I wanted it to be. We loaded the ramp in the buyer's box truck and the buyer left for parts unknown.
Craigslist almost never disappoints. The parade of characters are seemingly endless. When buying stuff, I have had a gun pulled on me, female persons show up at the door naked and offer to trade favors rather than cash. I have made a few new friends and have always been lucky.

That is a big change for you. I remember when you bought that truck. Does the new car have a trailer hitch?
