Yeah, that's because he has more room in his garage! I'm lucky to find a walking path through my garage. I'll also be lucky to find all the parts as I put her back together.

Think of it as a continual scavenger hunt - never know what you'll find or where, only that it's not where you left it when you need it. I've got baggies, buckets, and boxes of parts strewn throughout the garage, shelves, attic, office, etc.

Man! That makes me feel better! I've got baggies, parts, buckets, screws, etc, spread all over. It seems I can never find the right screws when I need them, so I go buy new ones. It looks better going back together but it sure is inconvenient!

I always follow the safety rule when clamping, but it gets a little dark sometimes.
