Actually got three trucks in the shop for the first time

Well after the 2 inches of rain in the storms, tomorrow I get to see how my dirt work held up, we have gotten so much rain this year.

This last weekend got the closet for the air compressor closer to being done, needs trim and a door but at least the compressor can go in and get plumbed. Got the used cabinet primed ( my wife hates blond oak stain) for the bathroom. The mud truck is on its wheels and out of the shop at...

The weekend brought on more lawn work, with the extremely wet spring we have been having for a change. The mighty John Deere 140 got some new lights and a a grill and the deck put on it and mowed with it. Alls I have to say is man my grandpa was a bad *** mowing so nice with a 110, it’s way...

it looks sturdy I guess you will see.

Man I need to stay off of this site, it makes me want a 3d printer that I know nothing about lol. The socket trays and parts bin makes me as an ocd parts department manager happy. Good work

eBay scares me to buy nance brand expensive items, coming from automotive hobby’s (fake msd stuff) I wish lift master still made the 8500 as it’s simple and that’s all I need. As soon as you add commercial to the discription it is simple but dibbles in price

I’m just watching to see the outcome, good luck

The 8500s keep saying they are discontinued online, I’ll look some more though

Ok I have 3 10x10 insulated “commercial” doors. I am trying to pick out wall mount openers for. The problem I’m haveing is all have a bunch of features I don’t need. They all have terrible reviews also. Does anyone have some recommendations?

Some progress this week, got some grass seed in and eroson control mats down, the weather has been testing it. Saturday got one of the mowers out and mowed the field, witch is crazy for Mn to have tall green grass in April. After that I got 1 3/4 rock spread out on the driveway. Not a lot of...

I agree, I just want a wall mount opener with up down stop buttons…..

I have been reading through 77 pages of this build for the last few nights and all I have to say is wow! so much info, most of it over my head haha I do think green hinges and a 3d printer are in my future though. My father in law owns a machine shop and it interests me to learn some of the...

Matco every Tuesday, Mac every Wednesday, snap on every Thursday at my work, snap on is the only one that comes to my office ( parts manager ) and he’s the only one that me and my counter guy buy from.

Continued the dirt work to the back today and got grade set, need to order siding now

Welcome, and enjoy the build, share the build

Spent some time moving dirt today after last weeks 2 inches of rain. Also here is the broken parts on the mud truck rip stock axle shafts in a Dana 44

Some progress this weekend, got the shelf built for the long end and the Dino stand/air compressor closet has matching walls to the bathroom. Also we got it cleaned up enough to tear into my first project in the shop, seeing what broke in my front axle on the mud truck. More pics on that later.

Thank you! I make a living from selling parts to overly complicated and emissions restricted diesels, I did not want to deal with one at home. I mean next year one of Cummins answers to the next epa tier for diesels is make a gas engine…. So far the engine has been good, we will see when I put a...

Thank you, it’s been a ton of work, I am glad my wife and I work well together. We are excited about the truck we have never bought a new one before
