"PS: You ever gonna have an open house at your place? I'm in!"
Don, any time you want to stop by the shop is fine. I am here most Saturdays. That applies to anyone who may have an interest.
I had a true "open house" when I moved into this shop in 2000 and a tech session or two since then. Always well-attended back then but the local 356 scene has become hard to organize in the last few years. A few have tried to organize informal events (like drives) but cancelled due to "lack of interest."
Now, it's so busy and crammed with "stuff" I am embarrassed to have a formal party, but there are 'interesting' things here to see occasionally:
As for sound deadening, I just walked out into the shop and photo'd my most used personal equipment. Ear protection, face and eye protection, hand protection and back protection. Out in the shop I or someone(s) else are always hammering, grinding...or both. Even using the shrinking disc is too loud for unprotected ears.
My hearing is getting worse. Too often during our typical "height of immortality" we thought "aw, this little bit of standing in front of the rock concert speakers won't bother me later" or going to drag races (or any motor races) or at either end of an airstrip, etc. I did a disproportionate amount of "all of the above." Now:
