Congrats Freddie Gear Head! I feel you've earned that in spades. I retired in '19 also, and it was a slight adjustment, but I fell right into it. Seems the days are still full, just a lot more custom tailored to MY needs.

Congratulations Eddie! I retired over 2 years ago and am still working 6 days a week in the shop. Hopefully you have plans that will keep you busy and enjoy your retirement like the rest of us.

Thank you all. Yes, I have plenty to do. First I have to get the shop finished and get all of my stuff moved into it. That's probably 6 months away. Then I have to build my '55 Chevy (pictures below). Dad bought this car and then took it apart. He decided that he wasn't going to be able to put it back together, so he gave it to me. I've got a few people who are wanting me to build rear ends for them. I've also got some who want engines and transmissions built. Then there is machine work and welding that someone always wants. My son is setting up a CNC shop for a local business, so there might be an opportunity for some part time work there. A friend has an engine shop with all of the machines (except a crank grinder) and he mentioned that he might like to have me help him sometimes. So plenty to do!
