    How many ongoing projects do you have?

    I just feel like posting this as I often wonder what I would have now if put all my energy into one project instead of all at once

    Everything I touch seems to turn into a long term project. Cant help it Even my new MN Mitsu is getting heaps of mods

    Some of my current projects.

    The new MN Mitsu, The 89 model Rangie, The 120", A series 111 109, An early series 1, A VW buggy (For the Kids) A series 11a 109 coming in

    Many others sitting around as well.

    Some of you must do this right? Or do I have a problem here

    I call my RRC an ongoing project.
    I have a WB ute that is in the early stages of a body off chassis rebuild with major modifications.

    I have two vehicles for dismantling.

    In the backyard in Alice I have a Series I 86 inch that is a later on job. There is also a Series IIa 109 that is a later on job.

    Plus the house repairs / renovations.

    are we talking general round the house projects, or just confining it to "Blokey" in your shed stuff?

    Good to see some others don't have a dull moment as well
    You talk to some people and they say they have nothing to do so spend their time in pubs, playing pokies, gambling etc and seem to battle for survival

    I cant even imaging what it would be like to either get home of wake up and have absolutely nothing to do I have enough trouble getting out of the work place as I live in it

    I actually don't watch TV often as always have real things to do that I enjoy so much more. My wife thinks its a bit strange but I just cant be bothered sitting around watching made up nonsense

    Cant beat real reality as I always tell my kids when they play those crazy games etc.

    Forgetting landscaping, gardening etc..I have the Defender which is just an ongoing as they keep making accessories I want.Theres 2 roadbikes which I could ride around the country tomorrow but they still need things like braided lines, s/s bolt kits etc.. till I'm happy.One 30yo dirtbike which I have just purchased a Paris dakar replica bodywork kit for.Once thats done of course I will need to upgrade the suspension and get it respayed so it looks noice.The boat has pivot bolt for the tilt grown into the transom mounting which I still havent succeeded in removing in the past two years, and I am at the point of seeking professional help with this one.Of course once thats done, I need to install power trim and electric start, and get it resrayed something other than white.The canoe needs its transon refibreglassed as its cracking away from the massive thrust from the 2 hp outboard(which needs tweaking).I just got given another classic bike(Guzzi Mk3 Le mans) which is in pristine condition except for a trashed front end, which will need many hours of searching for parts and figuring out what to use if I cant source original, and of course a respray when finished(I'm thinking black and white).Plus the shed need shelving and I need another shed so I can keep all my cool stuff away from boring things like mowers etc..Plus I just took delivery of 360x1.5m woven s/s mesh for a song which I intend to build a huge walk thru avairy in the garden out of, just gotta work out the detail.
