Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Lions, Tigers, & Bears, OH MY! No, spiders and snakes poll.

I certainly won't be making you look bad. My truck is a 2019 and that's it's first wax job. That, and i live on a dirt road, so the time my truck is clean is measured in minutes and they are spent in the garage.

 

That old can of Turtle Wax that’s crusted up with the decomposing what was a yellow sponge doesn’t count…

 

Shiny things amuse me

 

I washed my truck twice so far and every time afterwards...

 

I do really like that color....

 

Me too!

 

Welcome to Memorial Day weekend. I hope you have a safe and enjoyable holiday while remembering those who gave all to let us live this way.

 

Good morning everyone, have a great and blessed day.

 

Good morning guys.

Some quality mower time for me this morning then chillin for the weekend. Have an awesome weekend

 

Morning, all.

Don't forget to go pick up those ratchet straps.

 

If only they weren’t so far away.

 

Wood in my hands, and I'm sweating/swearing.

I am woodworking.

 

Huh, didn’t know there was one in Maine. Still about a 2.5 hour drive….thanks for the idea @80yotaguy


And then there’s the 5.50% sales tax..

 

The nearest store is over 300 miles away -- missed another good deal...

 

Damn. And here I figured if they were up here they were everywhere.

Sorry, guys.

 

Times like these are when I wish I had a long bed...



Except a double cab long bed won't fit in my garage. An access cab doesn't work for me, so I guess I gotta make due...

Build or buy a trailer !

I built a stand that went in the receiver hitch and one that slide outside the headache rack hauled 20' lengths of steel.

 

FIFY

 

It's 88 and I've been outside most of the day so the tireds are setting in, and a dehydration headache is along for the ride, so I'm calling this enough progress for one day.



The wood that was already painted got another coat. The new stuff wasn't accessible at the time because I had it laid down it'll get hit tomorrow when I paint the inside that won't be visible once I'm finished.



The last 2 boards were left out to see how I put it together.

I should be able to wrap the planter up tomorrow and start on the gate. I've never built a gate before so this could get interesting!
