    Did you cut the fabric out of that hat or does the inside just happen to match the bench perfectly? :laugh:

    Just finished putting our rosser debarker head back together. Got handed to me in a bunch of boxes and a "good luck!" This is how the heads came to me, I didn't make any of the markings or welding on it. She's fugly, but damn if it doesn't take the bark off a log with some aggression!

    That picture reminds me of a thought I had a couple of days ago. My daughter is going to college for power generation and operations and spent last week at a wind farm. Anyway I told her about a article I read about how when those wind turbine blades lifespan is up, then they cut them into lengths and bury them in the ground. My thought was curious why they don't have a large grinder that could grind them up and find something useful for it. Added to concrete or something?

    Morning all. Stay hydrated out there. It's getting toasty. I spent the last couple hours mowing the front.

    Talk about photo perspective, until I saw the wrench next to it it looked like it was 4' diameter

    Cole and I, mostly me, whittled out a phone holder for the Duramax since I robbed the one out of it and put in the Tacoma.
