    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    Installing some ditch lights. Or rather the wiring for them. Lights arrive tomorrow, and the brackets are in transit as well. Dam switch was a challenge too. Had to take a dremel and take a lip off of the unused switch blank.

    I will get out the wife's Kentucky Jelly, and try that. By the way, them folks in KY make some NASTY tasting jelly.

    Like an arrow, so that it cuts it's way through? I'd be afraid of slicing other wires...

    I always just poke a new hole in the huge firewall grommet on the driver side. A wire hanger goes right through that sumbitch.

    Here's a pic of the old picture:

    Here's now:

    If you went right up the driveway between the barn & house....that's my yard.

    That mound in the driveway is where an old Elm tree was...190 yrs old by the ring count (it's not in the old pic). We took it down last year. I bet that sucker was close to 4' in diameter.

    The center portion of the barn is original....the wings were added back in the 80's.

    That's where I'm trying... But on a 3rd Gen, it's fighting back.

    Sharpen a point on the hanger. You got this. I have several non factory holes in the grommet.

    Looking like a tomorrow project at this point. Time to have a drink, and watch some ball.

    Appreciate the advice.

    I don't mind....for the front, I blow into piles and rake onto a tarp and drag into woods. Out back I can blow right into woods.
