Looking good man! I'd run full seam welds on the front's and rears of the tine mount brackets. I would also make wider swathes, and get that super hot penetration into both weldments. Looking great though. Keep it up! Still totally jealous of your plas abilities!!!!

Smart man! I figured it might be a little too early to call that out. What's your soil like?

Same here. That clay can be a bear when it's dry! Digging the posts for my barn in the summer was a human backs nightmare!



Looking really nice!

Thanks ... that dried out clay is tough.
