XXX What would your wife think?

Post by basketcase0302 »

Guys,

I guess sometimes a bachelors life aint' too bad! :woohoo:
Since the temp outside here barely reached 60 today...and I gotta' get some painting done.... :hmm:
Bring the parts in the house last night to warm them up/quick run them outside this morning to paint/
then hang them in the house to cure. :thup:

The above is my combination dining room table and parts room, (with a heater core & a driveshaft & an oil pan sitting on it). Now I've got parts hanging about the house curing paint. :lol:

Wonder what the misses would think?! :evil:

I rebuilt a 2bbl carb on the wifes table. I took the parts outside for cleaning of course, but dissassembly and reassembly done on the table. The way I see it, when she gets tired of parts on her table, she'll buy me a shop to work in. :evil:

When I first moved in with my fiancee, I thought it was safe one day when she went off to school but she really surprised me when she came home early and caught me baking the wrinkle paint onto my new Harley barrels in her new oven :eek:
Needless to say, that went over like a cement duck. Sometimes I really miss that girl...

And it's a Hepavac! :D
Indoor air quality for many years now.
I could never get away with a "VOC" such as the curing paint in any of my buildings I took care of! :lol:

my Dining table is full of crap all the time, electronics, airbags, computer parts, you-name-it, my truck parts are piled up everywhere.
my wife doesnt mind it to much, she usually lets me get away with whatever i want.
