Nope, I don't. Just spent all of my money on one of their chainsaws.
Hey Scotty buy it for your living room!That Stihl sign is actually probably a good deal. Those old metal and porcelain signs bring big bucks.
And there weren't many of the Stihl ones made, think about it......post-war German saws really didn't get big in the US til much later than 1958.
I'm a Stihl-o-Holic.......I'd love to have a sign like that in my workshop!! Just don't want to spend that kind of jingle for it!
THE FIREPLACE IS FINISHED!!
Scotty-- you can come do my dining room next. I had cold cement walls that I strapped 2x2 and foam insulation to. Still need to finish the drywall, ceramic tiles behind the stove, wainscotting, all the trim. Oh, and move the return vent for the furnace up to the ceiling, install 2 way light switch with dimmer, open up the doorway to the living room, and remove most of the wall between the dining room and kitchen, installing decorative yet functional support posts. Then you can get to work on the two other rooms.
I'll put you on the list, bud!
I feel your pain, there. We set out on this renovation adventure 7 years ago this coming June......and we knew it was going to be a long road of ups and downs, joys and sorrows, agony and triumph, pleasure and pain. Well, we've experienced every one of those senses in the journey, let me tell ya. Spent WAAAAY more money than we anticipated from the get-go, but luckily the tree work I do on the side helped defer that pain a little. And we have three kids, so time became a factor in the mix too. I didn't want to miss out on my kids' growing, so I took many 'leaves of absence' along the way (to help coach the kids' different sports, to fish and hunt, vacations, and sanity checks), but we factored all that in. We basically ripped our house completely down (sans some of the roof and the outside sheathing), and built a huge addition and renovated the original part. This living room is the last step of the journey, and that fireplace was the biggest job in that part of the house. Starting to see the proverbial 'light in the tunnel' now.....all that is left is a couple items and then it's on to the garage....then the basement......then the woodshed....then the outside wood-fired oven.....
