So my weekend was more or less nonstop since Friday after work...
Finished sanding the drywall, at least as much as I am willing to do. Wiped down the sanding dust.
Picked up a gallon of el cheapo white semi gloss paint. I was planning on getting 2 gallons, but home Depot only had one left...
Laid down the first coat of bright white paint. Have a bit less than half a gallon left. Will make it go as far as I can, but not holding out hope...
Installed the 9 bulb chandelier I bought for LOML for Christmas. She has been after me for a couple of years for this one, but I wanted the paint in the dining room done before I did this... Now with the exception of some minor touch up I need to do in there, the dining room is DONE! (I messed up some of the trim paint, need to get after it with an artists brush...)
Took down all of the Christmas decorations. I need to test, repair, collapse them down still and box them up ready for 2014.
I installed the cold air intake tube on the truck / lumber wagon... Haven't had a chance to test drive it yet though. Still needs to go to a shop for tranny repair. Not something I can do in my driveway!
Installed the coil spring boosters on the front end of the truck. Got back 3/4 of the 1" of height I lost with the weight of the winch and mount...
Gathered up and organzied my hand held tools as best I could. Still have no idea where my T50 stapler is supposed to live though... Hmmm...
I am at the point now, that I am pretty sure this beast of a sander, the HF 4x24 is actually going to hold up long term, so I am thinking it might be time to get a storage bag for it...
Got my hoses wound up and stowed properly.
Got my Wonder Winders / extension cord reels loaded and ready to install after the tool cabinets are installed.
Got the first friench cleat lined up and installed, then removed. I wanted the holes in the drywall to be able to line up AFTER the paint is finished...
My next steps are...
#1. Put second coat on the shop wall.
#2. Install french cleats / hanging cabinets.
#3. Move tool stacker / tools to left of hanging cabinets.
#4. Clean up the mess that is left.
#5. Move big tools to where they go. This will free up the space to work on...
#6. Insulate, drywall, and paint stub wall between doors.
#7. Reinstall dust collection ducting.
#8. Crack a cold one and just sit back and enjoy being in the shop, not working ON it for the first time in over a year...
So what did you get accomplished this weekend?
