I have the ideas and the solutions, but I lack the motivation to get started. It is now WINTER and it is cold outside. I am a manatee stuck in frigid water.:D

:D Your excuse lacks completeness...I changed it for you:

I have the ideas and the solutions, but I lack the motivation to get started. It is now {SUMMER, SPRING, FALL, WINTER} and it is {hot, buggy, windy, cold} outside. I am a manatee stuck in {hot, chilly, lukewarm, frigid} water.:D

Not posting my project because...

I can't find time to download my pictures from the camera.:(


As far as whacko's, I will be very careful when posting pictures to not give out my exact location, ie...address, landmarks, etc. Its not really TBN I am worried about its the people lurking on the internet looking for an easy payday.

No phone numbers, addresses, local landmarks, or anything that could lead someone to you. You never know who is lurking:eek: .

PM or personal emial may be ok.

A few years ago, I saw a series of garage pictures on the internet, along with some very identifying information as to where this person lived. I sent him an email and he followed up with a telephone call to me. He thanked me for my concern, and said that anyone that wanted could come and visit him if it were scheduled, and he would show them his car collection and his oversized garage. Any unwanted guests would meet up with his other collection and love. What was missing in the pictures was that his home was surrounded by a high decorative steel fence and inside the fenced area were a large pack of trained Dobermans. His comment was that the Dobermans would shred anyone that tried to get into the property that wasn't invited. He didn't say so, but I believe that he trained the dogs for security work, and that he wasn't concerned much about security.

He sure is lucky to have full time guard dogs on duty, all I have is a couple of young horses, Colts to be more precise, to guard my property, one is a Python and the other an automatic. The dogs we have will raise enough noise to chase most burglars away.

The reason I do not post any of my projects is that they are pretty mundane, right now we are redoing three offices, painting, redoing some of the woodwork, having them re carpeted, replacing florescent bulbs that the tenants just used half of the four fixture bulbs to replace the burned out ones, a light ballast, door handles etc., pretty boring stuff.

The fun tractor stuff take place during the summer, but when that season hits, it is usually to busy to post.

I'm really sensitive, and I'm afraid Gatorboy might criticize it. ;)

. So what's holding you back from letting us know what your doing?

Probably my unorthodox ways of doing things. Like when I split my new CUT. I was advised by many here not to do it. Yet I chose the route I did because it was in my best interest.

Another example of my way of doing things might be with this set up...supporting a pump jack pole with pipe scaffolding. This is one of several projects that I'm currently working on.

I'll bet the Safety Police could have a field day with this:p

I've been sitting on my butt lately and too lazy to get started on it. I've shared a lot in the past and received a lot of good feedback and consideration. This is a pretty good site. I guess I should get started on a new one, huh?

Right now, a contractor is building our new house. I will probably get motivated to post a pic or two sometime soon, but it isn't really "my" project, it is his.

This summer I am going to build a well house and get started on my shop. These will be my projects and I will post on them.

Security is an issue, but hopefully I can keep it from giving away the exact address.
