Bought a set of Steeda's jacking rails, they install just behind the pinch welds and give a central jacking point. So simple, so awesome.

 

Very cool Alan. Might have to check those out. Looks like you have a 4X4 in the picture.

I'm amassing broken down vehicles at my house. Had a broken drive line in one pickup (don't ask), and a broken axle in another (don't ask either). Those are both back in the field now though.

 

very cool...Might need to get some of those

 

Nothing like a 4x4 Shelby, it's a one off built by Carroll himself.

Since I can't ask about any of your ole broke down trucks, how are things in the farmland? Was it a good summer for you?

JJ, good to see a post from you. Are back in the desert? Still have the Fox?

 

I'm not back over yet. There's a new company that took the contract. I just put submitted my resume with Lockheed Martin, not sure when I'll be going back over. I would assume, soon.

 

Been a beautiful, cool, and wet summer. How wet you ask?




Also had two semis stuck (one of which I pulled out with the Raptor!) and another sprayer stuck.

Seriously though, been kind of a strange year. Good crops, odd break downs, etc. wheat is going in the ground now, so hopefully start to slow down soon, I need a break.

 

Damn, that does look pretty soft out there.

I finally completed my wiring of the subpanel for the garage. When you are away from the house an avg of 285 days per year it leaves little time for projects.

I got the inspector to come out and check out the wiring and I passed. He said it was a "bit sloppy" in some areas but hey, I'm not an electrician and it my first time doing this so I'll take it.
Now on to wiring all the outlets and lights and running my 220 circuits.

 

I'm working on a dollhouse for the oldest grand-daughter. It belonged to her grandmother and I'm hoping to have it done for her by Christmas. The main structure is done and now the interior decorating begins. Four rooms (ground floor) mostly completed, only nine more to go! Yeah, it's a big dollhouse.



Dining room with beamed ceiling and bay window



Entry hall, the staircase has been started but not finished at this point



Kitchen, still need to finish the trim work and install the chimney for the fireplace in the dining room



Library, still need to finish the window trim in the turret room.



Building the wraparound staircase

 

That is a nice old Doll House she is going to enjoy it

 

That's crazy Chris, how much rain have you had?

Nice work Larry. How old is the dollhouse?
