Very nice Jocke, so, along with being a crack mechanic, and watch repairman you are also a contractor?

I just wish you could learn how to photograph watches.

I remember when you first posted pics on your new kitchen. I really, really wish I had the skill to do something like this. It's really nice.

Awesome job. My wife wants our kitchen redone. I wish I was capable of doing the work myself. Not only would it save a lot of money but I think I would enjoy it. Unfortunately, if I tried something like this my kitchen would end up looking like my bathroom or something. Lol
Great job man
