Just treated 2X4 frames with treated T11 siding and hinges. Concrete blocks to hold them when open. KISS principal.

Go get yourself an ugly woman that way she can't complain of you drinking too much to make her look pretty. Or just build a shop ugly women could be hard to get rid of.

Buy a drumset. Anything you do from there will be tolerated.

A female coworker told a story of her husband. She went home early one day and caught him in the act of cleaning his transmission cases in the dishwasher.

Well try this on for size...I (use to) wash critters (Fox, Coyotes, Bobcats, Beavers, etc..) that I trap in the bathtub when muddy and soiled and I HIGHLY reccomend doing this when you know for absolute certainty you are home alone and have time to clean the bathtub properly. Key words here are "use to" and "absolute certainty".

I have been formally accused of using the dishwasher to clean parts in and baking things that were not edible like some of you have. I adamantly denied everything. When asked why there was a line of black grease in the dishwasher I told her I had meatloaf for dinner and then ran the dishwasher. I dont think she believed me but now I check things like that for evidence that might have been left behind.

Maybe this helps, we have two spare rooms. One is hers for all her nick-nacks and ornamental stuff and extra shoes & clothes that I don't really care about, the other is mine for parts, drum set (no joke), misc that she doesn't really care about. Mine gets extra stuffed with the vacuum, empty boxes, etc that she doesn't want in "her room", but for the most part it works. The Master bedroom is "ours" to share along with the rest of the house.
I think there has to be a little give with the take. What is valuable to one might not be valuable to the other. Is there really a right or wrong? Or is it a matter of opinions?

I am recently married (little over a month), she is using her spreadsheet skills to help catalog all my "in the house parts", it's a good thing 'cause I will now know where and what I have. She is pretty understanding, after doing some explaining. However, I am limited to two rooms. There is talk of a nursery, so there goes one of those rooms when that time arrives. I better get busy rputting a car together.

Mine doesn't even get a spot in the garage (well she gets a little corner for her gardening stuff). I've had it bad, but I've got it good this time!

I still can't figure out why us men have the "need" to get married in the first place. I held out until I was 33. Divorced the 1st one and like an idiot jumped right back into the fire 3 weeks after the divorce was final. I'm still kickin myself for that dumb move too.

Talking

My wife told me either that motor goes or I go. I wonder she's doing now? NOT True. My wife actually told me to bring the motor inside the house so I wouldn't sweat my a$$ off out in the garage. She's definately a keeper.

I got to build my big building because I brought home a parts car....

It was a 76 TA faded maroon with gaudy gold stripes. front grilles and header were wiped off from a front end mishap, and it was FUGLY!!! BOSS TOOK ONE LOOK AT IT AND SAID KEEP IT UNDER A ROOF.

So I built a building....43x50 limited by setbacks and a well. Chain saws came out the next day, got a permit that week as well. When the floor was poured she thought it seemed a bit big....

When the walls went up she had a fit.....It is two stories....

"But Honey you TOLD me to build a building......"

Funny, the neighbor didn't talk to me for a year or so, but we're good now....

Can we get a clarification here?

She kicked your stuff out of the spare room - not you out of the house.....right?
