Is that figure that you complete 85-95% of the projects started or that projects get finished to within 85-95% of being completed before 'something' happens and it languishes. I sometimes have problems with the later... of course sometimes that is because the finish line keeps getting moved.   d*

It's very much so the latter.  I am known around here as "the 90 percenter".  I either get bored, burned out, or just plain distracted from my projects.

I love it.  Great job and really came along quickly!!   [cool]

I put in a 24 X20 to be wood shop here in the 'valley' where we live full time.  Was going to be my full time wood working - maybe a little mechanical work; but mostly wood working man cave.  Man cave however due to several family 'emergencies' was turned in to 24X20 storage unit.  Once due to cousin loosing her home and then there was the daughter's divorce.  Finely enough is enough.  Caveman not happy, caveman had to put foot down and tell everyone to get your #$$@@#$$!@! stuff moved out I needed my shop.   >:(

This year I am planing to make or get a start on the cabinets and built-ins for the house up at the ranch. Caveman happy again  :)

Once again really happy for you and a great job!

I invested in a duct collection system..  I have 2 GIGANTIC bags full of wood chips, which the chickens will now enjoy.

Perhaps Sassy can motivate you......  You have to at least complete every project to within 80% before moving to the next.  I think international law permits moving to the next project after 80%.

Perhaps Mars is better suited for you...  There is plenty of dust there.  You would feel right at home.

Now you've gone and done it. No more rebuilding the carburetor on the kitchen table for you.  d*

I have a dust collection... [waiting]

Geez dude, I didn't even see what I typed until my wife busted out laughing at me.  I have collected no ducts,  only dust...  Geez, my after jokes seem silly now.

glenn kangiser

They are fine... make sense to me.....

Collecting ducts may be kind of gross.... [waiting]

This guy has a duct tape collection....

Duct, Duct, Duct, Duct.........TRUCE!!!

Now my wife is threatening to sign up so she can humiliate me when I type wrong..

This is not my wife, but this girl does seem to have a lot of hang-ups.

Please have your wife sign up... we need to talk... [waiting]
