clean carpet and a shade tree here.

The orchard looks like a bury patch of trikedom.
Maybe some headstones for holloween are in order.

I LIVE in my garage and rent the house out so I can afford to live here.
The trikes are usually outside, on the front and back porch
except for random carbs on the kitchen stove.

You guys are amazing! I can’t stand clutter. I can handle a mess in the middle of a thrash, but I’ll also stop every once in a while and clean up in the middle of a project and then start again. I think shop floors should be either painted or tiled and tools should be polished and stored in some sort of pattern that reduces search time. I keep all my spare parts and specialty tools for each vehicle in sealed tubs and I toss anything I can’t foresee myself using or giving away before I die. I’m not shy about making a mess, but when the task is done I’ve been known to pull the light bulbs out of the sockets and wash the dust off them. This thread scares me!

This thread has inspired me. I spent 4 hours cleaning the big stuff out of the garage yesterday. Now there is room for 2 or 3 people to stand in there. I have about 5 more hours of cleaning on the bench. and some re organization of the floor space. If I could just put parts on the shelves or in the trash when I am done with them would stop alot of this. The garage is my get away in the winter and spring when work is slow. Not much goes on out there in the summer, it is just too dang hot. I am slowly getting it back though. Just a few more trips to the dump and Ill be good for another year. LOL

I have to get this licked, I have a couple of fun projects I want to work on this winter.

Before and after pics please! Come on guys, you can do this! Every time you pick something up off the floor ask yourself “I need this because" and if the answer evades you it’s time to toss it. Trust me, I know about this. My dad kept his old sparkplugs and stuck thermostats on a shelf over the workbench, drove me bat NUTS!!!

Sorry it's too late for before pics but I'm still working on it right now. I'm working on the bench and when I get that done hopefully I can start on my 70 motor Bottom end swap. I had a motor with a bad crank and I bought a junk bike for parts and it has a awesome looking bottom end.

Edit: I got the motors, out and torn down. I was hoping to have it in and running tonight, but I dont have a base gasket. On a nice clean bench I might add!!! LOL
