New England B.S. Thread

I'm looking forward to a 3 day weekend to get as much done on my truck bed as humanly possible. I'm HOPING to have it finish-welded, prepped, and primed at the very least! I have about 16 feet worth of spot welding to do to tie in the bed floor to the bed walls, and that is super tedious because I'm trying to not blow through the weak ass original metal.

 

what freakin holiday is this weekend? I have work popping off and a ton of stuff to do for my road trip setup before the 17th too

 

Maybe the I’m skipping work day holiday, I have them once in awhile.

 

must be nice.


Just asked in the ne bst thread but anyone got any plywood scraps? Need to cover sleeping platform 2ft x 6ft, doesn’t all need to be one piece.

 

i have some leftover 3/4 that’s been in my garage since summer from making my kids cribs into platform beds. 2 @ 48x43 if you want it.

 

Where abouts are ya?

 

upton ma near the Grafton line right off 140.

 

Got a small electric chainsaw on lunch. Next is fence repair. Chainsaw worked really great and only 60 bucks

 

Getting closer!

 

Morning all. Happy Thirsty Thursday!

 

Almost Friday

and happy birfday @LivinLoud !

 

Thanks to our pages of booze talk last week, I have a nice bottle of captain reserve I have been working on

 

I picked up a bottle of Maker's Mark for the ski trip last weekend and I've still got most of it left because we drank a bunch of local beer instead

So I'll probably have some of that tonight.

 

Now we're talking! Electric all day. For big stuff, yeah call in the gasser (aka my cousin or brother), but for 90% of real work I end up doing, they do an excellent job.

I actually emailed my shop this morning to order a little bigger saw, sick of the 14 inch blade getting bent so easily (its a carving saw really) and am moving up to a 16 inch. Not way bigger, but has a real bar and chain finally

Just as an FYI, I've seen on some other forums Stihl is having some products hard to get, and so if you were looking for spring tools, I'd start calling your local shops sooner rather than later.

 

thanks buddy

 

Happy Hump Day Pugga!

 

Woah happy bday! Was a big year!!

 

Oh man - with the past few weeks at work, tonight I am cracking into that birddog blackberry when I get home.
