So among the 6 left, I got so far only 2 quotations!!! Can you believe it!
companies!  :pac: :ghost: :ghost: :ghost:

No offence but the roof job is for most companies not interesting. I mean, it is a too small job. Only companies who do not have 'enough' work will send you a quotation and mostly it is at a high price.

I don't totally agree with that. The roof size will be 82m2, which is the same surface than a small house. In addition I'm asking for roof with insulation, so they can add more €€€ to the bill.
I precised them I'm not in a rush, and they can come between 'two bigger construction sites' if they prefer that... I'm very flexible, and because my construction is brand new (it's not a renovation), it's a very easy job for them. Those who came 'on site' all agreed with that..

For information, a got this morning a third quotation... but too late! (and much expensive anyway) They all promised me quotations within the week and it's now more than a month!  :-X

I'm back from my father's house, and I found an other toy from my past ...  :P  :arrow:



What a memories kick back! I didn't remember the additional custom decoration I've done on it  ::)
Anyway, I'll clean it and probably hang it in the game room... So 80's spirit!  :-*

While I'm here, some news about the roof. The work should be done by the end of September  ;)

...and when I say 'clean it', I mean 'removing dust', not 'erasing' anything  ;D

Gonna beat the season change?   When do you expect to get snow & cold...  That slowed you down a bunch...

Hey, I used to have exactely the same skateboard, and I painly remember how I exploded my left knee on it when I tried to get down on it on my garage  ;D
Don't know the english expression for "épanchement de synovie" but it was really painful, be careful if you climb on it again Bruno  ;)

Great! 2-mad provided (in this topic) an address of a shop in Germany/Europe where you can get... UV / black light carpet... hell yeah!

The website : http://www.klein-hagen.de/gebrneu/body_verkauf_neu.html

Three models available  :arrow:







(left : under normal light / right : under black light)

...and it's even not too far to personally "road trip to" the shop and bring the stuff in less than an half of a day ... only 300km  ::)  :arrow:



I guess my choice is done  ::) Stay Tuned...
