    New bearings and seals, I was kinda worried this would be bad. Wasn’t as bad as I made it out to be in my head.

    Not trying to discourage, as welding can be fun... it's just that welding overhead is sometimes slightly less fun:welder:

    Suggestion for learning is check on local schools to see if they have a program similar to this.... https://www.hi-ed.org/events/welding-3/

    was immensely helpful to have immediate feedback on quality and technique, and built a snowmobile lift by the end of the program....
    learned to Stick and MIG weld when I went.... Would like to go again and to learn TIG and Aluminum welding

    professional I am not, but the plow frame I fabricated and welded for my plowtruck is at least 15 years has not failed yet.....

    The owner of the site I help mod said kind of the same thing - "Apologies for the delayed response." :p
    Took 'em long enough. :spy:

    mats, flaps, and stickers. Extang solid fold 2.0. Mobtown sliders and full skids. AVS vents
    Depends on the firearm.
    Yes they are.
    I almost did a day late.
    It was probably someone working for the government. I work for the government, my main boss doesn’t reply to email, he calls so there is no record of his response. That’s fine, i always send a summary email of the phone conversation to him afterwards to verify what was discussed.


    Beards and shaving. I have a beard and maintain it rather short. I shave my neck and throat once a week. The balls get a twice a month treatment so the wife doesn’t gag. :)
