Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Alright men, hold on to your hats!! Brand new in the box, empty 9mm brass leftovers from my very first shooting with my very first ! These babies will be the crown jewels of the prize warehouse!!!

 

PA roads are so darn bad there's no avoiding it. It's under warranty for now

 

Pictures or it didn't happen...

 

Maybe I missed it but what is this for?

 

RE Poll: I've never had a personalized plate. Though I have had specialty veterans plates for the last 12 years.

 

Bonus:

 

Respectable, I was going to say great until I scrolled down a bit more...

 

Its kinda nice but we'll take it anyhow!!

 

This is my first time doing target practice just about ever. I shot a few times about 15 years ago.

 

I bought a Chinese plasma cutter

 

House for Murphy
It is the new and improved roadside honey stand

 

When you put legs on a stand you put legs on a stand.

 

Standing by for report.

 

It was a good afternoon.
Finished welding the brackets with the Lincoln AC 225. Bolted solid to the frame & added some 2 x 8.



Are the two 10,000 pound rated hooks overkill?



As a benefit (? ?) of dragging home broken tractors I never have a shortage of junk tires...



I'm here to tell you fellers, cutting up tires is a lot of work.

Maybe the @StayinStock method of just burning them is a better way of disposal.

Carrying on, I found the battery reciprocating saw to be the least bad way to cut the sidewall off. After I had the tread loose then the stationary band saw made trimming them to size fairly easy.

Easy as trimming a 5 foot long 12 inch wide snake with a bandsaw gets that is.

And done.



This was a no dollar project, everything came from the archives.

 

Looks like you can now push dead Ford's with yer Ford...

 

That is the idea!

This will make for a handy mule around the garage, being battery operated sitting around and only running it for a few minutes isn't a problem like a gas job.

Next is a hitch so I can move the trailers.

 

Get yourself a linear actuator to lift the trailer hitch. Don't even have to get off the tractor to hook/ unhook the trailer.

 

I have thought about that actually, it would be the ultimate in lazy cool.
