New shop started

[EddieWalker]

What are you going to air up with that compressor?

 

[plastikosmd]

The world!


Well, as you can see we started power washing the cabin.

Sadly, due to winter/spring cold shrinkage and some cracks, we created an indoor “water wall”

It wasn’t as decorative at all(although the cats found a new drinking source)

So I need to blow out and seal some cracks first.


Ladders are a “No” so I will get creative

I also posted my “dustless blaster” that I scored.

I dunno, make some rust disappear and then maybe sell to someone who wants as part of a business?


Keep?


I dunno

 

[plastikosmd]

field is growing quick
Time to get the flail out of deep storage

 

[daugen]

whoever invented pallet forks is sure our friend
that looks like a very handy machine to have

 

[plastikosmd]

^agreed
It is old tech but handy around the back 40

 

[EddieWalker]

Is "deep storage" at the edge of your grass, or was it inside somewhere and you are just moving it outside before hooking it up to your tractor?

 

[plastikosmd]

I keep it out in the woods in my “dump” area (out of the way)

It is easier to hook it up where it is more flat and good excuse to drive the Clark

Added to the stable (more things to keep up with, joy!)

74 k miles

I couldn’t say no.

[plastikosmd]

Is there any way to block posts?
Lol!!!

 

[plastikosmd]

Had two stumps ground and they struck blacksmith gold! (Well more rusty junk to add to the forge pile)
Good chunk, 1/2++ in thickness.

 

[plastikosmd]

Happy 4th

All depends on the submarine...

 

[plastikosmd]

True!

 

[plastikosmd]

So, new tool time.
I found a wood lathe that fit my purposes. A Rikon 3040
Can swing up to 30”. It has a unique extending bed design that is motorized allowing you to go from 20”up to 40”. Weights close to 600 lbs.

The gentleman that I got it from clearly enjoyed it.





Look at all that swarf!


Anyway, my wood shop is on 2nd floor. As shown prior, I put in a garage door for forklift access for this purpose.

 

[plastikosmd]

The other new addition is Bella Quinn




(Was told it was a he, it isn’t)

So w pronoun change= name change to Bella Quinn



She came from a crap situation
We weren’t looking, just couldn’t say no to rescue

Been some work but she is warming up nicely





I’m sure she will rule over her brothers

Nice looking cat, and shop! Enjoy

 

[EddieWalker]

I have about 20 cats. They just show up. Since they do such a good job of killing mice, we do what we can to make them happy.
