Thought you might enjoy at least something from the box, great to hear the gf got a bottle opener

Muffins go great in the shop!

 

You guys gotta get your kids one of these bikes if you don't have one.

Someone makes one that you can steer for the back handles too

ignore the trim, dirt, and whatever else

 

We had one that you could steer from the back, but she outgrew it pretty quick.

Honestly this has been the best thing ever for us lately, a little standing platform with wheels that you attach to the back of a stroller (Sofia calls it her skateboard lol)

 

Lookin for some design opinions on the bumper.
Originally I had been planning to cut the bedsides about to the height of the bottom of the bedside protection tubes. Im not sure anymore if thats worth doing given how low the bottom of the new bumper sits?

I have a feeling its going to look a bit odd with the high clearance cut bedside, and than a 4" drop at the main bumper. What do y'all think?
That was an oversight I didn't catch till now..
The line is my departure angle at the new bumper hitch receiver which is obscured by the truck 3d scan. Might stick the tire an inch higher so it doesn't become the lowest point on departure if I eventually go 35s.

 

I've already had 3 people at work ask me if I'm going to sue because of the dog bite, even after explaining what happened. This kind of mentality makes me want to never take Dex out in public again. The thought never even crossed my mind. Dogs sometimes fight each other and if it was anyone's dumb fault it was mine for blindly sticking my arm between them lol.

I guess I could see if it were an aggressive attack on me but that's not at all what happened.

 

Gawd that's getting to minivan level

 

I know...but believe me it's better than trying to push the stroller with a toddler on your shoulders because they suddenly decided they were paralyzed from the waist down

 

Man, that's a lot of overthinking lol

It looks good, just build it. It's plenty better than stock and these trucks are capable in stock form already

 

Oh I was just talking the 3 small humans

 

If you're gonna break one up kick for the not the ribs, them things break and puncture lungs

 

Would've wrapped up the swingout yesterday but I left my gas cracked open over the weekend and I guess my regulator leaks so I lost it all
At least I learned that lesson now while its just ar/co2, not acetylene

 

It wasn't that bad of a fight, Dex was trying to get away so it wasn't an all out brawl. The lady was trying to get her dog off him but it was a Great Pyreneese I think ( looked like an enormous white Retriever) almost 2x Dex's size, she couldn't pull it back.

one of these big floofs, was kind of surprised to see it go off like that. Dex did try humping it a few minutes before it went crazy and I had to pull him off, maybe that's what did it

 

Oof

I was always taught to never leave it open, ever

So at work and at home I've always shut them off when I was done welding for the day

 

ahem @Kwikvette

 

God dammit, still got that gift card to Cattleman's too and I was telling Stephanie I was craving lobster yesterday

 

I can't be too critical, I'm not a fan of seafood really but occasionally do get a craving for lobster or crab. I just don't really ever do fish unless it's salmon...salmon on the grill with butter...mmm

 

My dude, you're from CA

How the hell do you not love seafood?!

I'll go to town on a bunch of shrimp, crab legs, lobster, most fish, all of it

 

Hell even octopus legs, eel, and more when it comes to sushi

 

I would say I like sushi but it's not really sushi, I like the cooked tempura rolls with crab and that's about it. Octopus no thanks....I can do a little calamari if it's really thin and crispy, basically just the batter lol.

 

How are we even friends
