Nice, Typical old broads cruiser. Is it narrow beam, 6'10"?
Is your other boat similar?

I bought something and was very badly ripped off. I am down by hundreds, and may or may not get my money back. The deal was too good to be true and I should have been on my guard. Caught napping... I should post about it in Auntie BCF, but I don't want to go down the rabbit hole of making that thing my focus.
Also bought my latest project.  |

Bigger garage is always better. See if you can get some insulation on the underside of that roof. Some thin boarding on the wall panels with rockwool behind and paint it all white to keep the area brightened up.
Are you planning to run power and heat in there or just fill it with household junk?

I'd love that much space but I'm limited by a pretty tiny garden. I'd be ply lining that pronto.

Even OSB is expensive these days, so 26ft x 12ft is going to bankrupt me lol. I've been saving a while, and having something effectively twice the area of the last one is just a big win.
I will be doing the back wall for starters just to hang shit off.

I tried a dehumidifier when I lived in a near-prefab and unless it’s hermetically sealed you’re just trying to dry the troposphere.
Rated ‘Cool’ though. What are you going to fill it with? Projects? Tools? |
The plan is to try to keep floor space free as much as possible, I can get two bikes and an estate car in at a squeeze and shut the doors, walk round and work on the car still, in theory. That's with work benches and a table in at the rear. Well we all know how best laid plans go, but it's possible even with all the crap I've accumulated in the past 10+ years stored away.
Right now it's full, because I've just dumped everything in there that was being kept in the house and a tent, and all the junk I'd lobbed on the trailer, so when I move the empty trailer out and store everything in the rafters or on shelves it'll be usable again.
I'm thinking of getting a cheap Porsche Boxster as a project. Oh, and a semi decent lathe and milling machine for my next big birthday. I want to coat the floor in oily swarf and turn decent metal stock into useless parts for a few years, with the aim of one day building a bike after gaining just enough knowledge to be dangerous.

Just won an unused Star Wars Monopoly Board game with a sniped bid of £5.50
Have also just made a best offer on a bedframe for my spare room. On for £120, I've offered £75. Reckon I'll get it.
Edit - I did.

I was about to castigate you for spunking yet more money on needless crap - but I saw it was an Orient - and in spite of its Christmas Cracker branding they were a brand of some esteem in the digital watch days when I was a collector. It'll be a quality piece I'd wager.

Silentnight Extra Firm mattress - Amazon. I will put my old one on the 2nd hand guest bed I purchased earlier in the week.
I'm very pleased with that btw, as new, very sturdy and over a foot deep storage area underneath, it's swallowed up so many
boxes of stuff and tidied up the room nicely.

Chain oiler. Saw one fitted to another Meteor and it was a neat and tidy install, and the guy says it works well.

Do you have one of the newer Meteor's? I just fitted heated grips to a 2022 model for my friend and I was a little concerned about the alternator output keeping up with the exta 4a load.

No, mine's first gen, 156W at 1100rpm, apparently. A number of people in the FB group have added heated grips and not reported any problems that I know of.
