jason_l Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 its easy just "Happen" to leave your tool box in their one day, then another then maybe a bonnet etc. do it very slowly and she will never know mate hahaLOL We are saving for a house at the moment, we are trying to get to 30k (currently have just shy of 25k) but i may just state from the start that one of the rooms will be the Manroom, although if we can get a house with a garage then that will be converted to a workshop Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted August 5, 2010 Author Share Posted August 5, 2010 ahhhh workshop=new resting place for the beast Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jason_l Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 ahhhh workshop=new resting place for the beast LOL actually No! I mean workshop as in workshop, so a mill, lathe, bandsaw, mig welder etc I think the Demon will probably stay in Basingstoke when im not driving it. Bit of a bummer as its like 30 miles away but i don't have the room. Maybe if i get a HUGE garage but i doubt it will happen.Anyway, enough with going stupidly off topic Looking good Steve, keep up the good work. I look forward to the updates on this as i know they will be epic as always Quote Link to post Share on other sites
