    It’s not the most squared and the welds are amateur student with lots of grinding…but sure was a lot of fun welding, grinding and painting. If I had a metal chop saw, my cuts would been better for sure. I have a bad habit of just winging what I’m envisioning versus drawing out a plan lol! It’s leveled but not perfectly squared.

    first project for the 1st gen with a cheap flux core.

    Might as well go big. Tres Leches Cake from Lupitas is pretty damn good. Nice super burrito to go with and that's lunch!

    I think that the thing I miss most about living in the South Bay is the Mexican food. It's just not nearly as good in Concord and Walnut Creek.

    Yeah. We are pretty lucky. There are a couple of bakeries in the area as well. Lupita's is trying to get their bakery opened but waiting on the city. Must say, the stuff they have in the case is all good. Even the Gelatina de Mosaico. Flan? It's good but I'd prefer a more caramel flavor.
