Similarly, a happy garage is a happy project. I built myself a workbench a couple days ago to help contain the parts I'm working on and the tools I'm using. It actually turned out quite well. Needless to say, having more bench space, a shelf for tools, and pegboard for more tools is helping me find things faster, which is making the work more efficient.
I installed a new right crankcase gasket, which has slowed the oil leaking considerably. It's not stopped, unfortunately. I'd forgotten that the oil drain plug was also leaking. Of course, I've got the carb on, I've got a trickle charger on the battery, and I'm hoping to have the engine turning soon. Not riding yet, but running at least.
For riding, my two main tasks are the rear wheel (I need a new tube so I can put the new tire on) and the throttle cable (either a new one or an adapter to mate the OEM cable to the slightly upsized carb).
It's getting there.... slowly.
