Re: First project with old Marquette stick welder

no, was in a hurry trying to get first cutting of hay in the same days I was welding so didn't bother taking any. And now the weld is under a coat of primer and top-coat, so there's nothing to see. I wish I had taken before and afters, though... Not being able to do stuff because of eyes/shakes is s...

First project with old Marquette stick welder

I finally got the nerve to start, and replaced the ends on the lift bars on my Ferguson TO-30 tractor. I cut off the ends, beveled them, and (because I was more confident with it) used my 110 volt wire feed welder to tack the new ends in place. Got to use my new Harbor Freight welding table to keep ...

Yes, it does. Most of the time.

(Although my 96 year old Mom has started saying “I don’t give a damn” a lot nowadays, so maybe it’s true that wisdom comes with age.) 😉

I love Mondays! Happy Monday!

After I retired, I realized weekends are the worst days to shop. Every place is crowded, and the worst drivers are all over the road and in a hurry. But Mondays are great— hardware stores? Empty! Groceries?? Empty! Home Depot??? Empty…and the folks who ARE there look a lot more like me. Love it. Hap...

Re: Beautiful Downtown Prospect Hahbah, America.

You keep throwing me, buddy! If I hadn’t read the title out loud, I wouldn’t have had any idea what you were talking about! :lol: :lol: Pretty place you live in.

Re: HELP

Jim, to be clear, you do NOT have to have the Prime card to have Prime! We don’t. We have had Prime for years, initially because of the shipping. Every year we question whether or not it is worth it, but so far we continue…almost entirely because of the convenience. My wife still price checks almost...

Re: Hey Bkeeper

This is the small one 16x40. I don't think I can get the big one small enough. Haha, your “small one” is 13 times the area of my only one!! 😂 I can see why you don’t/can’t take the shade cloth on and off for the season. Thanks for sharing. F14 is right, most phones take photos that are suitable for...

Re: Greenhouse

But worth the effort— beautiful setup, and great photo!
