    When I looked down, there was literally a flame on my pants.:rofl:

    Told her that the monster needed to breathe a little. Then she reminded me that poking a hole in my jeans with a thumb tack would have sufficed.

    Truth hurts.:laugh:

    Can't polish it too vigorously.:laugh:

    Just tell her to be glad it's a Thursday and not a weekend! Haha.

    Guess you're gonna need to have some PF patches made and put one on your jeans!

    Update! First of the new year!

    We got a bunch done today. First thing we attacked was getting the wire channel added for getting cords from the temp controller to the fan. We knew about this all along, but had a little oversight when putting on the front skin, so we had to retrofit. Minor speed bump that we solved fairly quickly. Right @Pandaman59 ?!?! :laugh:

    Wires go in here where the temp controller sits:

    20200104_132219.jpg

    They come out near the intake. Before I did the grinding and polishing, I had to snap a pic of this weld done by yours truly.:rofl: Two boogers were where I had to bridge a gap. Trying to get a little credit from @Kanyon71 :laugh:

    20200104_125617.jpg

    Pic of it cleaned up a bit and in relation to the intake. This will be shrouded, so the symmetry wasn't important. The flexibility and clearance of the wires was much more so.

    20200104_132224.jpg

    Some seams were finished up, the intake was welded in fully, the door was adjusted for a better fit and to better accommodate the gaskets.

    Finishing touch on the day was getting the top thermo mounted.

    5" diameter on this bad boy. Took a little while to get in as I wanted to order the one with the calibration dial on the back. Pics don't do it justice. Maybe my sexy ass does, though.:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

    20200104_172403.jpg

    Getting damn close!

    I was wondering why I hadn't seen you post much lately in the Whiskey forum - now I see why! Too much "work", not enough drinking!

    I’ve got to say your welding skills are coming along nicely. They are far beyond mine at this point. Even though that’s not saying much. Whole project is coming along really nicely can’t wait to see it once it’s all painted up.
