I had to be careful to not “over-plan”. I could have spent a week on that alone.

I have no real plan which is a first for me. Usually i have several pages of drawings, material lists, etc.

I’m trying to draw on my “abilities” and not let ADD get in the way too much (maybe toofat got to me) – it’s not working well, as I still need to draw things out as I go, but it’s not like some times where I spend 10 days planning, and 1 day doing.

I’m struggling against myself – my “instincts” to think about it for a few more days.

Yeah, I did make a mistake – I did the middle shelves all wrong, however, I can trim the ends down and use them for the movable shelves, and simply make new middle/stationary shelves the way they should be.

Several other projects coming – close the pool (a weekend job), rebuild and replace the hinges on the doors of my Eagle SX/4 (the doors don’t close well, sag, and the right one is hard to open) that will be a weekend job. And most of all – CLEAN and organize both my shop and my garage. That will take a couple of weeks at least. WHAT A MESS! If I was in town, they’d mark my buildings as disaster areas.
