I'm sure Dr. Freud could explain it.

Conscious me - Got out of the body and paint business in 1995 at the age of 34. Never regretted it. I've only pulled my spray gun out once or twice since, and only because the projects were too large for a spray bomb.

Also conscious me - I bought this old Wheel Horse for a couple specific uses only. Decided there's no reason to waste the time and money to repaint it.

 

Subconscious me - sees a rebuild kit for my favoritest old spray gun and immediately clicks "Buy Now"

Old habits die hard. Something about the feel and fit of the Spray Gun grip in the hand.

I too had an early departure from the day-to-day painting for a Paycheck at the age of 26.

Our Family Doctor strongly advised me to find another line of work. He asked me how many retired "Dust Bums" I knew - I could not come up with any......

The only way Dr. Froyydd can help with your current syndrome is to supply plans and materials for a larger storage shed and workshop.

Dr. Freud would probably predict a new thread of @Bar Nuthin’s Wheel Horse Restoration!

I seldom work from plans.  I have the necessary tools, equipment, and space.  Supplies ($$$) always seems to be my sticking point.

I've often wondered what I could do if I could put Time & Money together on a regular basis.
