The Overhang Before (Part 1)

I took the siege of the studio overhang this weekend. I alluded to it last year after watching some Fixer Uppers on HGTV. Bruce had a hint of the impending siege. So after working a day in taxes, I saw he was tired and his defenses were down and told him my plan.

As I fully suspected, he agreed to my crazy plan. So Saturday afternoon we spent the day cleaning up the back overhang. Let’s see what we find…

  • About 5 lbs of broken glass
  • Antlers
  • Wire baskets
  • Kitchen Drawers
  • An old table
  • A 3 legged picnic table
  • Weights
  • An Orange Cone- Maybe it was to tell me caution this is a crazy idea
  • A trash can full of sawdust
  • Lots of wood
  • An 8ft devils fork. Maybe a pitch fork but I prefer a devils fork
  • Drywall scraps
  • Odd pieces of wood
  • Rusty machines I have no idea what they were for
  • Plastic jugs filled with mysterious liquids
  • A Pile of unknown wires 
  • One Oar

Interesting mix of items left by the past owners. This is also our second clean up of the back. Bruce and his dad last spring did a few runs to the scrapyard.
