    Welcome back, and to the FMCR for the rest of your 30. My final retirement was in '99.

      Welcome back! Trying to set up a shop, moving in and doing house repair/remodeling all at the same time is a recipe for insanity! Now where is that tool?

      Post some picts of your work!

        Welcome back and thank you for your service! From my experience of fixing the house and setting up shop... set up at least a working/rudimentary shop first! This seems to fly in the face of most people's idea of moving, but think about it... you are going to be doing some renovations on the house. You need space to work more than an area to marshal your boxes and "stuff" When the floors are done and any other messy work, then start to move your house stuff in. This way the shop always stays clean and workable and not a junk "catch all". DAMHIKT :-)
        I think in straight lines, but dream in curves

          Welcome back, thanks for your service. Setting up shop in a new place should be plenty of fun.

              We already got all our household goods unpacked. The tools have been in storage for the last four years. I hope they didn't rust. I put up a shed to get all the outdoor stuff out of the garage. Now it got cold again. Hopefully I can finish the floor this weekend but there is a big gun show going on too.
