Re: Door opener gremlin

GREAT !! ... line up those bikes N let's have a Garage Sale !! .. :laughing:..:laughing:

That day may be comin'
I got way more bikes than I will ever need, and really shouldn't leave them around for heirs to have to deal with.
But, that is a train of thought which scares the heck outa me..............

I have many mowers as well; most are old and not worth much on the open market.
Like a couple of Snapper 21" self propelled jobs. Built like tanks, but not very modern.........

Yeah.. the wife N I sometimes wonder what to do with all the "stuff" each of us has to get rid of when the "other-one" goes off to the promised land, VERY-mind-boggling thoughts ! Of course if you're the one "gone" you know nothing, we figure family members get first "dibs" then charities get the rest, yard sales are out of the question for us. But it is amazing just how much "stuff" you can accumulate in such a brief period of time, not to mention ALL the "schitt" ya drag around that you've had for centuries (like why do I keep 5 toolboxes ...??? ) why does the wife have more cosmetics than the local CVS pharmacy ??? .... :laughing:..:laughing:

Gettin' close on garage doors

I slapped a coat of primer on the filler panels just so they wouldn't stand out so much.
It should look a bunch better when the aluminum is installed on those panels.
I will add wiper seals around the sides and top.
But.for now, both vehicles are indoors (and, the doors go up and down on command.
Still waitin' for the last remote..........My door 7.jpg

Looks good but I still would have added to top and bottom of each panel.

It'll look a bunch better when I get the aluminum on the top panel.
I also need to clean the top of the left door as the dirty stripe is noticeable.

Adding a filler in between door sections may have made it look better, but, as each joint is a tongue and groove configuration,
I would have had to do a lot more machining, and hinge issues would also enter into the picture.

I do appreciate the feedback!
