Good Morning,
Vt,52 to start going to 75, with sunny skies, some lingering fog laying in the valley ! Yesterday we had on and off showers, mostly dry but every time a dark cloud passed we would get some sprinkles !
Planning on more shop time this morning after breakfast. I need to make the pieces that attach to the inside of each leg and then cut a 6 degree angle on each leg. That is what gives the back legs the splay when assembled.
Ron, curious what type of equipment you have for sheet metal ! When I was a modelmaker at Pitney Bowes, I had the shears and brakes for bending, really miss all of that !
Plowhog, glad to hear that Rigby doing a bit better with other dogs !
Hope all have a great Tuesday!

I have a 24” welding table. With a 3/4” thick table top. C Clamp sheet metal down with a 1 1/4” bar. Then bend it with another bar by beating it with a plastic impact mallet. This method works good for metal up to .60”. When I was working I had access to tools to do the bending. Picture shows the 2 guards. Items 60 and 70. $142 and $111 at Messick’s.

Good Morning
59° with a high of 78 under clear skies for today.
Yesterday was a busy day at the old folks home, spray foam, masons and outside trim work all going on simultaneously.
The insulators have to finish the great room so the masons can get going on the fireplace, hopefully early today.
I put the 90” landpride on the tractor and mowed inside all the pastures, then trimmed the edges with the Lazer. So all the mowing is done for now.
There’s already signs of life out there, I’ll walk out in a few to see what’s happening so far. Once that’s all settled I’m going to get breakfast with the professor.
Might even get back to the little plane if these guys are all under control.
Tomorrow I’ll be in Roanoke for most of the day, I got a call from someone that needed a copilot for the day in a jet that I’m rated for, so I figured I might as well.
It will be fun not being in charge, hopefully I’ll behave…..

So sorry for your family's loss Wngsprd.
Good morning! 77ËšF heading to the upper 90s, S wind, no chance of rain in the 10 day forecast.
Have appointment with doctor tomorrow to schedule shoulder surgery.
I need to mow the yard this morning before the 90s set in.
