    I live in and my wife works in Sonora but I work in Moccasin. At work we barely had any rain and my wife kept texting me about the crazy weather... I though she was exaggerating until I saw the pic on MML.

    My dad who has owned a business downtown since the 80s said he’d never seen anything like it.

    Had to been New Years? I live less than a mile from the woods where everyone plays. Didnt make it through the sheathing so it had lost most of its juice.

    No joke i pull bullets out of roofs all the time, typically in east Oakland or Richmond. My record was 5 in one roof, that was a few years ago. Realtors dont like when i show their clients, probably makes them think twice about buying a home in that area lol

    Frame brackets are (pretty much) done.


    And no... The welds don't look pretty. But them bitches are strong. The tab is actually angle iron frenched in and completely perimeter welded, then ground flush. (On the side facing down)

    3"x1/2" flat bar brackets with 3/16th tabs on the outsides of the shackle mount. Making the shackle mount 7/8th thick.
