Ya, this weather definitely sucks. The high today is 10 degrees. It looks like it wont warm up till about tuesday with a high of 39. The only thing im worried about is I have to laquer 3 mods and you cant get good results when its this cold. I may just finish what I have and list the remaining 3 mods later this week. I'll let you guys know.

I had recently moved all my soldering equipment out of the freezing garage and into my bedroom. The table im using to work on is a piece of plywood sitting on some large speakers. Well, my 2 year old son, who loves to climb everything, decided it would be fun to get into daddy's stuff. He pulled the entire table over including 2 large 44 drawer compartment bins full of switches, regulators, batteries, etc... This happened earlier today and I'm still picking up LED's and resistors up off the floor. Along with that stuff, I had several mods on that table I was working on. Two of the mods arent bad, I can just strip the finish off, sand the dents out and refinish them. One mod broke into several pieces. And unfortunately, that was a mod that a customer had sent back to me for repair. Today has been horrible... So, its a minor setback with the current batch. I'm still planning on listing most of the mods in a few days, and another few mods several days after that. Oh, and my son is fine. That kid is invincible, and a little evil. He ran away laughing, without a scratch.

So I turned my bedroom into my new workshop. My wife isn't too happy though ;) Just a temporary solution until my garage is heated and insulated.
