New build thread suggestion
« on: 08 February 2013, 13:19:21 »

Ok, so as some of you will know, I'm in the process of building a garage / workshop at my new home.  When it's done I hope to spend many a happy evening in there, playing with my Omegas...  ;D

If people are interested, I'm happy to do a build thread, so please use the poll to show your preference.  :y

As that Kevin Wood bloke says, there would be interest by some (not everyone has the space/money/skill to do it), and this section seems the most appropriate :y

Absolutely, I voted yes and post as you do it! I love seeing other people's workshops (despite how jealous they always seem to make me) - unless of course it'll look like this when it's done: http://www.wscountytimes.co.uk/news/local/video-cannabis-factory-found-in-small-dole-1-4733051 ;D

I have no objects to it, and why should I.  Most threads are interesting and one on a building project would be fascinating! 8) 8) 8) 8) :y :y

Voted yes step by step.  Built a couple of large doubles myself a few years ago, but never got round to doing a pit though.  Good luck with it mate :y
