    You are so funny! Thank you for allowing your daughters to become users of tools. I wanted to cry when I saw how well she used the drill and the driver. I had to learn all that on my own 40+ years ago, because girls just didn't do that. (I do now) I am looking forward to seeing your conversion finished.

    HAHA!! I tried that same "bigger trailer new truck" argument with my wife for years. it wasn't until we ACTUALLY had to evacuate for wildfires and I had to inform her that we couldn't take EVERYTHING with us that she wanted that i finally got New Truck and Bigger Trailer. We didn't loose anything so it ended up a Win-Win. :)

    Good to see your girls involved in your project. My son and daughter helped me build race cars back in the 70's amd 80's. Got a call from my Daughter one day, while she was in College, and she said she went on a date with a new guy and they had a flat tire. They had no cell service in the Country, so her date couldn't call his Dad to come change the tire. So she tells me she hikes up her dress and proceeded to change the tire for him. Then she tells me, Dad, I won't be going out with him again. Thanks for teaching me how to work on my own cars. She was the "Go to Girl" in her Dorm when somebody had car trouble...... She turned 43 last month, and has a nice Snap On tool box in her garage. Her husband says she's easy to buy for. Just buy her tools and she's happy. Her 10 year old son just laughs at her tool collection.
    Every kid needs to know how things work, and spend some quality time with their Dad.... Good to know about the Bondo. My woodworking takes so long I've never had an issue with wood putty not being dry. Shrink yes, but never not dry.

      That’s an awesome story. That’s exactly how we want our daughters to be. Any boy they date much much later 😉 must have real world knowledge and calloused hands. It sounds like your daughter turned out amazing.

    Just thought of it, but maybe adding some kind of baffle/vent to the back or side of the refg. cabinet for better cooling efficiency of the fridge…not sure if it’s necessary. But the project looks crazy cool, congrats on the progress.

    Happened upon your channel, very entertaining. My dad taught me some things about doing maintenance work; painting, fixing things if they break, how to replace wood siding. I love that you are teaching your daughters how to do things. It is a great skill for them to have and they will have such fond memories of your time with them.

    Love the layout, but you will kill your refrigerator because you don't have any ventilation to allow the heat to escape. It will need to work harder, then creating more heat, which will make it work harder.
    I would put in a relay that energized a small fan every time the compressor kicked in. Sucks the heat out and allows it to work better using less energy, even running the extra fan.
    Plus extend the life of the fridge.
