Default Building a workshop in my basement?

Heh, got that t-shirt too. Did you take pics of th'
rebuild/restoration Jim? Always liked those older Beemers.


Ah, I know I *should* have, but a lot of this was done one
spare hour at a time. If I thought I had to stop and take
photos, I never would have even ventured into the shop
most nights!

I have a before snapshot or two, but the program is still
on-going. Ie, it ain't done yet! I still have to paint
the tank and fenders still. That's the only thing holding
me up. Funny how paint that looks like it's about to fall
off on its own when the bikes running, all of a sudden becomes
the most impervious, impenenetrable, adhesive, toughest,
most ever-lasting material the instant you hit it with
a sandblaster, stripper, a wire brush, or a scraper.

I'm seriously thinking of painting some chemical stripper
on *all* my bikes just to make their paint last longer.
