Big Barn’s Retirement Farm Shop

[dnw64]

Add a bleeder valve. Mine has one and it makes it much easier to hook up. Just a quick crack open and closed and you're all set. Typically about a table spoon of fluid comes out.

Good idea. Thanks.

Nothing of consequence happening in the shop these days. The weather finally improved and it is actually hot.

Landscape maintenance is ongoing and limited to early mornings.

Even the deer have their favorite shady spots staked out before noon. This one in the back yard..


and these three helping me prune the shrubs in the front yard...



I hope everyone is enjoying the summer.

Yep finally we are in for a beautiful stretch of weather. Definitely a great day to be working in the yard and gardens!

I came into the shop to cool off and continue with my parts room cleanup.

This is a wooden carpenter’s chest my Uncle left me.

Looks like it's on its second pair of hinges.... I don't see boxes like anymore. Looks pretty big. I bet that got heavy when loaded!

Nothing fancy but well built.

It's been in the 90's here every day for about a month now, went without rain for almost 3 weeks straight.
Needless to say my house projects have been slowed down quite a bit.

Doesn't help that I just finished an 80hr week at work either
