    We should! And also at ATR!
    I’ll still be randyfab’n it up, but I’ll be more selective. Installing lifts probably won’t happen anymore, maybe cmc. I wanna mix it up. Like the other day did cam tab gussets and that was fun because I don’t do them often.

    But but I need to fix my fat man sag on the front. Don't forget I'm pretty sure I was the first to pay you a hundo. So I should at least get a punch card or something...

    Also did you and the lady get Mister Jim's yet? Best subs I swear by it.

    You were the first and I thank you for that. My garage is always open to you!

    And no we haven’t. Considered it for dinner tonight but went to CFA instead. We’ll get it tomorrow night

    Unfortunately, Randy didn't pass on his welding skills to me. I really need to learn. Thought about using the little bit of GI Bill I have left on some welding classes.

    For you or anyone wanting to learn how to weld, it’s really not that hard. You just have to want to learn. I’ve probably watched 25-30 hours of YouTube videos on different techniques, tips, and just fabrication videos in general because I’ll pick up little things here and there that help. That, and constantly welding even if it’s just practice.

    You've convinced me. I may run over to Harbor Freight and look at welders. I do have a friend that welds so he can always drop me pointers and stuff.

    That’s what mine is, the titanium 120 and I really love it (as you know). With coupon it was $380 and I bought a two year warranty for $60. If anything happens I can swap it out for a new one right there.

    Go to NVCC and tell Matt that "german" send you and you will never hear the end of it!

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Just what he said..

    Had to photoshop an appropriate safety item on so I don't get into trouble.
    Project was to reinforce a bent patio umbrella base with some square tubing:

    Also ran into this Taco parked without an owner crying loudly:

    It’s gonna be hard to top this dumbassery. After this was taken though I immediately felt like an idiot for not wearing PPE.
