I built (myself) a 24 x 36 shop, 10 foot walls, vaulted ceiling, oversized
doors, 4 post lift, industrial ceiling fans,
fire alarm system, gas heat, 110v outlets every 6 feet, 3 separate 220 lines,
piped air. I'm learning the
fine points of building your own panels for rust repair on another project at
the moment, because I have
a limited budget and feel my attention to detail is greater than someone
getting paid to get the job done
and out the door.

Subject: Re: [Tigers] Hypothetical question???
Correct me if I'm wrong, but most of the fantasies expressed so far seem
to center around writing large checks to other folks to produce crazy
perfect Tigers for them. Are we getting soft?
Isn't there anyone out there who would use their fantasy budget to buy a
bunch of neat tools, maybe build a dedicated garage with a lift, and
start learning new skills and building their own crazy Tiger? Crazy
could mean either restored to 100 point original, or modified the way
they want, or whatever in between.
Writing checks may be easier, but nothing beats the sense of
accomplishment when you do it yourself.
