Tomorrow’s forklift, technically it is today since it is after midnight here, is just a small electric forklift. The battery is good and will fit in one of my 24 volt forklifts. Going to spend a minute with it as I was told they spent a lot of money replacing parts and could not get it to go...

15k, sweeper is not included. I could not pass it up, it is essentially the same as my 13k, except it has working sideshift, working fork positioner, and essentially new 8’ forks. Also it is not a standard transmission and the tires aren’t dry rotted. It does have significant blow by, but it...

Bought another forklift today, probably buy another one tomorrow.

There are lots more than that!

I think this is the most requested picture, going to have to work up to three. Also took the rear wheels of the new yard donkey. Have to get new tires and find two more rims.

Bought another truck today, needs a little tinkering, but it is not rusty, so I don’t mind doing the tinkering. Hopefully I will have that up and running by this weekend.

I brought two of the trailers to the Salvage Garage, the third one is going to be tough, it is in a row of trailers and has no room to get it out. Might be able to have them move things around and get some clearance. Not sure how much I will get to do this week, pretty full schedule already...

Must have been one of those other Stroutys…

Probably split the difference and have 2' up and 2' down, my ground has a high water table, 4' down would be trouble. I am also aiming to get all air ride trailers, so I should be able to dump the bags and gain a bit as well.

They are grandfathered, but when I have to move them it is going to be a PITA, especially since it will be at least two times. I understand your point, if I was to keep them, I would have to empty them and essentially leave them empty or only put easy to remove stuff back in them. At least...

Since I found out that my local ordinances no longer allow conex boxes and if I want to put a "roof" over them, I need to go before the planning board to get approved, I have made the decision that everything is going to be in trailers. I have secured three 53' box trailers to start with, then...

Been pretty slow the last few weeks, I helped a Buddy move a piece of equipment last weekend, of course he paid me in equipment too, so now I have a matching 4 ton hand punch to go with all the Di-Arco stuff I got a few weeks back. At least everything matches and is all rated for 16 gauge...

Look on the bright side, I bet there are all kinds of cool tools to buy...

I just tell my GF to take her top off, never works though.

We have had some chilly nights, but no snow. I have a buddy that is an hour north of me and he did get some snow a couple weeks back.

I am not sure what I am doing yet, I know I will need to start sending things to new homes, I just don't have the space.

I guess they changed the days, now it is raining today and tomorrow will be the “better” day. Yesterday was a pain, never even got to Dad’s, but around 10PM I drove the maroon 3500 home. I guess that could be called a win.

Today looks really decent, I think Sunday is our next rain day.

Selling is a good thing, most of the time. Today wasn't as rainy as they originally said, spent most of my day at my Dad's chasing air leaks and trying to get things ready to start up the plasma table. I hope to have that at least fully powered tomorrow.

One pallet done, replaced cardboard boxes and broken totes with fresh ones. Not bad, one pallet by noon...
