Bought a house this month and in the garage I had to address the lack of lighting. So I got some free two build construction light fixtures that were going to be thrown away and wired them up. The picture doesn't do it justice, it's tons better.

Only mine is backed in so we can have room to open the driver side door. Cars have priority in a garage. I refuse to be one of those people who has to park their cars outside because they have so much crap in the garage. I'm good about selling and donating stuff I don't need.

LOL! I'm OCD when it comes to cludder. If you ever decided to do some spring cleaning watch a episode of Horders Buried Alive and you will get rid of 10x time junk.

Assume you mean the photobucket ones... the owners of them need to pay the "ransom" to restore the links.

I was going to say - time machine. You'd win the DIY forum if you build it! ;-) Five year old posts, image host issues, not really fixable.

Made custom Sig P238 grips for a buddy of mine. I used a 3d printer and made it out of ABS plastic.
Cool very Cool

Where did you get the file for making them?
