So not too long ago we picked up a 1.5HP Tosvert 130G2 Phase Converter. We needed to run a 2HP motor so it wasn't big enough which was a huge bummer as it was a really nice unit. We decided to sell it on ebay to put the money towards a new one. I had just gotten it listed when something struck my eyes. Turns out the unit was mislabeled and was actually a 5.5HP unit. I called Toshiba to verify and we are golden!!!!

Got some work done on the kitchenette in the garage. Looking awesome! Small double burner tabletop electric stove, microwave with convection oven and heating coils, nice neat little silverware drawer with good solid cheepo silverware.

I am working on adding a website for those who enjoy reading about these things and as a tool to provide a place to record our exploits and...hold on big scientific word coming...stuff! Eventually we hope to have a full forum and a place to put articles and news.

We are working on getting the garage winter ready. The colder it is the more we will have to keep the door shut and the garage buttoned down so we need to get all the room we can possibly get. As previously mentioned we are working on getting rid of as much junk as we can and selling as many things that are no longer needed as we can. Today we ditched 11 boxes and 2 garbage bags worth of 'stuff'.

A ton of progress has been made on clearing out the garage so that we have more room. I even sold the radial arm saw as it was seeing little use and just taking up space.
