    Brilliant minds think alike. I have no idea why we do LOL, but I got it covered.

    Perfect. I mean no reason to go without the creature comforts ya want. Right? Those little fridges are cheap and very efficient and having a cold beverage within arms reach is nice.

    Look forward to your ideas on roof fans or ventilation cause you want to be comfy in a man cave/shop while working on projects. Does that roof area see a lot of sun?

    Btw. Loving the color combo...

    The doors and frames are U PVC (door and frame about 3000 bht each) for exterior use so they should be ok, the interesting thing about them is that here in Khon Kaen I looked in every home improvement place . and all they had was white, knowing me and how I am dirt magnet no way they would had staid white for long, and these UPVC you can not paint I was told, finale I found these gray ones at home Hub , which was the first place the wife had suggested we look at and I had said no. LOL I would had liked brown but I would have had to order them and I could not wait.
    The door to the right has a bit of overhung to it

    but the door to the left does not have any ( a tiny one)

    So at some future time I will put a small roof cover over it , something like this or similar.
    I have a bit or roof panel left over , so i might weld a frame and make my own now that I think about it. .

    The sooner you fall behind, the more time you have to catch up.

    ^ didn't think you'd make such an obvious schoolboy error. Not that i've looked but i didn't realise that they did those panel doors in plastic.

    yea they are everywhere now and they are not that expensive, The only thing about them is that you have to set them perfect because there is no shaving them like you do with wood frames. The good thing is that with both the door and the frame plastic they don't swell during rainy season. I have a wood door and frame on my downstairs bathroom, and every rainy season is swells up and is difficult to close. Next project is to pull it our and plane it down a bit, which I don't think will be easy because the door is mai deng (hard wood) and I don't have an electric planer. I am tempted to buy one , they are only a couple of thousand bht, but how often would I use something like that? probably never again LOL. I miss Home Depot tool rental.

    Good job Buck. When I finished building my shop I rewarded myself with a quality bench vise. I use it so much I wonder how I ever got along with out it.
