    Tip #1: Invest in some nice knee pads (gel foam inside/hard plastic outside). Huge upgrade from the ones I had from "back in the day". Your knees will thank you. (keep them by the pull down ladder)
    Tip #2: throw away twice as much as you think you should. (everything you drag up there... you'll have to drag down)
    Tip #3: make good walkways (ok crawlways) and keep them clear or you won't be able to get to or find anything (don't ask how I know this)

    Good luck with the medical stuff.
    Thanks for the kind words.

    I had not thought about knee pads. They would not get used much but when they are I can see the benefit. I do need to put more plywood down as I need to do more wiring and insulation and get some things organized.

    Thanks for everything Mike.

    A couple of weeks ago I saw your log, you did 190 for triples so you be back in no time! Take it cool and just work around it.
