    Little bit of this and that
    That's interesting considering that a couple of the more well know lightning arrest system manufacturers are based in Florida. Wonder why they would outsource to a French company.

    Finished another "woodworking" project today.

    Made some charcuterie boards from the wood I scavenged from the tree my neighbor's had cut down.

    Real nice lookin’ grain on that. My woodworking expertise lies in strategic placement in the smoker when required. Beyond that, I’m pretty much done. :sawzall:

    We have a nice full size bungee cargo net for the bed, it comes with a ton of carbiners. I put my stuff in the bed, tuck a tarp in around everything and then run the cargo net and clip it all down tight.

    No kink shaming from me, buddy!

    Also,

    :worthless:

    Also also, the tonenau cover will be back on tonight. It was only taken off so a desk would fit if we found one.

    Funny I have had several JD lawn tractors and never really had any luck with any of them. To be fair they were all used, old & cheap.

    I did have one good one I fixed up & was going to sell, I made the mistake of mentioning it to a friend -- His face lights up... :)


    "He is in a bind and needs the mower" :sadviolin:
    .
    at a bargain basement price... :facepalm:
    .
    Oh, ah .... Can he make payments??? :(
    .
    very small payments... :mad:
    .
    for a very l..o..n..g time... :censored:


    Profit

    I got a cargo net with a dozen carabiner clips on AMZ for about $30, I was surprised how nice it was for the money.
    Used it once and knew I would never fool with a tarp again. :thumbsup:

    I would never use a cargo net. It doesn't block enough snow from getting into the box. :p

    I have the garage roof to keep the snow out of the box - all winter long. :p:p
