Life goes on - Winter 2016

Haha! Of course you do but I think we would all like to move to Wayne’s place but it just won’t work - it’ll get too crowded.

But to judge from your reaction I think I just managed to raise your temp a couple degrees :smile:

There are side benefits to working on the construction of WK units. You’ll never be the same mind set ever again. I used to think in terms of hardware store solutions, or in my case, machining something custom. It started with winning this 32 inch LED TV from a work party. Some gifts come with a catch, big time with this one. It replaces a 25 inch tube TV sitting on a 2 by 2 foot piece of furniture in the dining room. That means it has to become wall mount. Work. Got a wall mount bracket and found a stud to screw into. Wife has two complaints about the wall mount. She’ll have to buy a shelf to hold the cable box. And ………that sound is too tin box like. Bought a audio box amplifier. Now she’ll have to buy a bigger shelf to hold both TV additions while the TV is up the wall.
Suddenly the ghost of Wayne came zooming into the room with a spark of inspiration. Weld scrap together for a value added product. When the TV is up in the air, a trip to Walmart is unnecessary because I built a woodgas truck !

One of my life rules has been that i can have any tool I want a long as it can pay for itself.
With a shop full of tools and all of the practice that a WK build provides many of life’s challenges are smaller and more rewarding.

This is why Michigan’s left coast is heavily populated with fruit trees and bushes.
Frost insurance that is.

Merry Christmas all.

I have plenty of work that needs to be done on the farm but this afternoon I decided to take the rest of the day off because it is so close to Christmas. I filled the hopper of the dakota and the wife and I went out riding , sight seeing , shopping and visiting for about 5 hours.

Enjoyed the afternoon SWEM :relaxed:
