57 going to 82...last warm dry day.

Sodamo, I don't have enough battery power tools to have thought up a storage system, but remember RNG had a set-up for fire prevention. I should pay attention, since my charger is just on the floor in a storage room. I remove the battery and unplug as soon as charged.

Finished up the house trim painting, brush and paint pail clean up and enjoyed some good bar-b-q.

Windy, overcast, period of drizzle or light rain till tonight the rain started back up, and high temp was 43ºF, low temp forecast to be 38ºF at midnight. Chapel to start day, then made pancakes for breakfast. Started first fire in insert this season. we were as warm inside as Bill :) Spent most of the day stoking wood stove and conserving energy. We started to pick up house, new house cleaner starts tomorrow. Chimney sweep called back and we are on his schedule in 1 1/2 weeks.

I know a bunch of us have collections of battery powered tools. Curious as to how you guys store them. Initially I built a stand 12x48 with 2 shelves and the top. Put some various corded tools on the bottom, the middle shelves the battery chargers and the top for the various cordless. Now I’ve collected way more than neatly fit on that shelf so thinking about modifying. Possibly add an upper level using hangars made from pvc pipe.

What do you guys use? Something homemade, a commercial solution? Maybe a pic or 2?
I thought this was a good design:

Good Morning!

God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly).
53.3F going to low 70e, partly sunny forecasted here today. But going up to Pigeon Forge/Sevierville for the day, where it will be cooler and rainy most of the day.

after church, we dumped off a full load of cardboard at the recycling center, then took the dog for a walk up at the woodlot. Explored another section of the lot we had not previously gotten to — very overgrown with rhododendron, but a good potential future building spot with a view —-once you clear out for the view, too. Then late lunch/early dinner with mom, who stayed over so we can head out early today while she and dog share the couch — and we don’t have to worry about rushing back and can have a full day out.

time to get ready to hit the road and maximize the day before rain!

I hope everyone has a happy healthy safe blessed day!
