Stop in for a cup of coffee

Strange day. Decided it was time for my best friend and i to hang out. So changed oil in his van and changed over to summer tires. His daughter has horses, and her spurs didnt fit right. So adjusted them. Halter ring was too big,cut it then found out it was brass and couldnt weld it. buffed away chrome and give it some heat with the tig. First official tig weld. Looks like ***, but i couldnt break the weld!
other buddy bought a commercial wood thickness planer 4 years ago, was talking about getting rid of it.so we grabbed it, cleaned it up and it runs fine. Blades are nicked, but its good enough to size the lumber for bed floor in the Fargo.

was a very productive day, and shop is still clean.
