Gotta' call it quits now though, any more weight on the door and its gonna' come off its hinges. Ceiling is still pretty much a blank canvas though.

As I've probably said before .... that DOOR is simply superb!

I have a door I could possibly give a similar treatment, but only on the side that is inside the shop and certainly not on the side that is inside the house, so yes, your Lady is certainly very understanding ... INDEED!!!

Just out of curiosity, what is the meaning of the 20 & 13 at the top of the door? Is that actually 2013 for the year that you became afflicted with this Mad Malady???    ;c)

Yes, that's when I Googled toy steam engines to find out what was then an unknown little steam engine that had resided on top of a kitchen cupboard when I was growing up and my Dad used to take it down once every year or so and get it going. Found out it was something called a 'Mamod' looked them up then on eBay and my socks where blown off.....and the rest as they say is history!
