petroman2012 168 Posted March 16, 2013 Finally able to stretch my legs from spare bedroom back to garage since(I hope) winter acts like its over(again I hope).. Putting things back to where they were about 3-4 months ago... Weather is good today and getting warmer so I will be found outside instead of hiding in spare bedroom pluss I can crank up the music when I work...Some Linkin Park or a little Korn to settle the closed-up monster in me...And MY OWN coffee maker as a PLUS.... Who could ask for more on a saturday...Its good to Live in the United Sates 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimnAng 56 Posted March 17, 2013 Very nice! Would love an area like that to work in... and enough incoming business to warrant it! Sounds like a great idea in the Spring and Fall, but won't you have to relocate once it's hot, hot, hot outside?? Ang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petroman2012 168 Posted March 30, 2013 Since shootting the images I updated the work area and made a leaning table to cut/weed on so my overhead flur lamp gives me a offset angle and I can quit straining my eyeballs trying to get the lighting in the angles I need to weed ....and a couple more display forms on the back wall, I can to conclusion that signs are not my thing but graphics are and sticking with that.

petroman2012 168 Posted March 30, 2013 oh..guess I forgot to ask YA'LL but I like my music, the wife is a (NO OFFENSE INTENDED) yankee redneck so she DONT like my taste in sound (uhh figure that after 24 yrs of puttin up with me)and I am a headbanger ex-musician ex-band member since my ex destroyed my instruments(she'll get hers) but anyway..Do Ya'll work while listening to WHAT and does it help or hinder your level of consentration...I am partial to Linkin Park and at times Korn(only a few cuts) then I will switch to 009 sound system, just curious is all, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plbrooks 13 Posted March 30, 2013 Most of the time I listen to audiobooks when I'm working alone, but when hubby is out here working with me we listen to 60's 70's & 80's rock really loud... with the windows and doors open cuz it gets so dang hot out here! And the neighbor doesn't complain about it unless I sing... but I complain about my singing too... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petroman2012 168 Posted March 31, 2013 I was building a CHEAP cutting/drafting table in an adjustable angle so I can sit in my Captain chair(stole it from work-needed new casters) and have the above Flur lite give me the lite angle so I dont have to stand and bend over to weed, will shot a pic ot 2 today, dam cat's woke me up 1 hr ago so I am now up fo the rest of the morning but have to wait till Lowes opens(if they do on easter) to get some piano hinges to put on table top to make adjustable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kauffman21 32 Posted April 3, 2013 I listen to songs I know so that i can sing or humm along. classic rock and country mostly. I have to have some music in the background..... my cutter sounds too much like a fax machine or 56k modem for me not to go insane if that's all I heard all day. I am a firm believer in music in daily life. Also the mood of the music doesn't have to be death metal...but it surely can't be a slow song either. Whatever pumps you up and keeps you going should work. My whole garage is converted into my "shop" so there are no problems with noise in the house, I crank the jams and get to work!

petroman2012 168 Posted April 4, 2013 Thank you...My WORK area is theraputic(spell) as I tend to think about my dad(past 2010) and punish myself mentally as I didnt become what he thought I should have so I listen to "words" and it reflects on me and well I get worked up about him bein gone...

rdusigns 7 Posted April 16, 2013 Thank you...My WORK area is theraputic(spell) as I tend to think about my dad(past 2010) and punish myself mentally as I didnt become what he thought I should have so I listen to "words" and it reflects on me and well I get worked up about him bein gone... I can't imagine my Dad being gone. He is 78, works with me almost everyday. If I leave him at home he goes down hill as my Mom just yammers at him all day but if I work him like a rented mule he tends to stay healthy. I am very sorry for your loss - I know you miss him very much or you would not have posted that. I am sure he just wanted you to be happy and healthy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
