BarnFab, that is a 'Fab(ulous) Barn'! It looks maybe less than ten years old; what's the age? You hint at what sounds like some cool toys/tools to play with, how about some details/pics? Having both a diesel mini-tractor and a versatile forklift puts you on my 'Green With Envy' list!

What's on your 'To-Do' list and what's the order? Sounds like you have to get the machines going ASAP so you can make some money, but please take the time to document for us on GJ your progress on your 'Fab(ulous) Barn'!

Did you get the vacuum that goes with that Porter Cable sander?

I've used one of those (rented it at Home Depot) and they are a lifesaver if you have a lot of sanding to do.

I have that exact same forklift! Mine has a john deer 4cly diesel..great machine, built very well.

Great Barn, subscribing!

[colt zantop]

very nice! keep those updates coming!

Man I really like those benches from costco.......

Waiting to see what you have in that container.

You must feel like a kid on Christmas morning. No time to play with any of them, just got to unwrap the next present to see what it is. lol

Man, that forklift is certainly going to come in handy as you do the 'Garage Shuffle'! Try to keep track of how many times each item has to be moved until you feel it has 'found its home' in the shop; should be entertaining for all of us GJ'ers to watch the transformation. Take plenty of pics along the way as you seek 'Shop Nirvana'. I've been at it for too long now in my shop and I'm still at this stage! lol

[HOTFR8]

Pink ? I guess you can paint it.

[HOTFR8]

Sure it will not look to much like a ...... Sex Shop ? :rollseyes:

[Buzz Lightyear]

That pink slatwall will look sweet!!



Sweet?!?! Sweet?!?! Get it?

It's a play on words!!

[moajay]

No I dont have any info or manuals on the forklift. Mine has a manual clutch, I seem to have to replace the cable every couple of years.
My brakes have been out for years though! I need a new master for that but have come up with nothing to replace it with.

I looked high and low locally but I just get blank stares at lift dealers, with this old equipment you just have to wing it and be creative.

[Omphaloskeptic]

PINK SLATWALL!??? We won't make you turn in your 'man card', in fact, at $5.00 a sheet, I'd say you deserve a 'YOU SUCK!' award (a manly 'YOU SUCK!', not the 'other kind'). lol

[pneumatic]

I hope your going to spray those pink slatwalls with some Glen20 or something!

It looks like you couldn't resist the temptation to go completely overboard buying tools again.

[bazzateer]

Nice looking barn. Think I'd be converting that top floor into living space. Perfect place for me!

[Omphaloskeptic]

WHAAA?! A five year old boy NEEDS Dad's crap to play in, on, and around! He'll have 'toys' to play with that none of his friends will ever see in 'Toy-R-Us'. lol All you need to do is start buying him his own tools.

Any updates?
