Hi guys...hiatus is over.

Last April I dropped everything (friends, family, job, apartment) I was doing and moved across the country. It was a pretty daunting experience, as I am the only member of my family to ever move out of state. I wasn't ready for the amount of work and stress it was going to be and it sucked for a while. Back last year I had thrown down a few ideas for mods that I would have liked to try and sadly I had to drop them as well for a long time. But I am back on my feet here in the sunshine state and apart from an ongoing do-it-myself remodel of my condo I want to try to revitalize some of my old ideas. Probably not a lot of people here know who I am, I wasn't an active member for that long before I went off the radar. In any event, I'm back and it is good to be here. I did end up getting the silverstone TJ-06 case I ordered and I will start working on it as soon as I can. It is really exciting to see some of the mods that were just ideas when I left all done! Great job and happy modding!

Welcome back good sir!

When your fixing your house, show some pics of before and after!

We're all junkies of anything fixxerupper or mod!

Well I have been taking some pictures, the place was ugly as sin when I moved in...maybe ill make up a worklog for my condo :P

Hey I would love to see a work log for a condo. I am in the process of looking for a place like the one I have now that I can fix up myself. So I would love to see what you got and compare ideas. Welcome back...even though I probably wasnt here that far back.

I will have to go dig up my photos from the computer later, but here is a teaser shot...

This was one of the earlier photos from shortly after the beginning of the construction...at this point I was just trying to make the place habitable. The walls were all a pukey lime green color and you can't see it but the grout in the floor was painted a purply-brown. You can see in the background where i busted out the kitchen wall, I am building a bar there, and thats me in the foreground setting up my "TV set" after a trek into the attic. I should have some time this weekend, Ill go set up a post for it if you all are interested in seeing whats going on, or you want to throw some ideas at me, there is still a lot of work to do. (You also may notice a lamp in the photo...I do a certain amount of my shopping from a well known swedish retailer..)

Ah, the Ikea is it? Its a pretty great store for the filler pieces you need. As for plans I would definately like to see where you are going or are at. If you need some suggestions, I have a world of them. Just tell me where you are stuck.

Shoot, I will take all the ideas I can get, I appreciate that. It is a slow process mainly due to the cost involved in a lot of this work but I will post something over the weekend about it and leave it open for comments.
