Ohh. I suppose that would make sense then. :P

I hope to be making it a lot more like his shop in the future. Heat is a main concern. Maybe a clock, a calander. Oh a phone, computer, some cabinets. I need more fittigns too and I'll nee more bins as well I guess.

I like it a lot, but there's a lot that could be added.

Very nice, my garage is full of cars and junk so I work on the porch. The good thing about a porch is I have nice ventilation when soldering or working with PVC glue.

You mean you aren't supposed to work in a closed area with PVC glue, all this time I've been gluing parts together in my bathroom so that I can be efficient and get two things done at once. Hehe, I keep all my pipes inside each other and fittings and shit in a box >.<.
So Gort, when ya gonna let me come sleep in the work shop so I can play with all the fun tools when you aren't looking. :P

Hey good idea, just put a cot in there for when you're too lazy to go home. And Squishy, yes, working with PVC glue without proper ventilation can be dangerous in the long run. (Don't you read the labels?)

I once put pvc glue in a pie tin and lit it on fire and there was a giant flame.The only way I could get it out was too flip it upide downand smother it.
Pvc glue fumes are very hamful and can knock you out if your not careful.

Just leave the lid open in a confined area with zero ventilation and light a match. See what happens and you pass out from the fumes.

Lol, I knew they were flamable being that I'm a pyro, and I also knew it was harmful in poorly ventilayed areas. Was being sarcastic, but still, I sure wish I had a few more tools and such.
