Love the hardscaping and walls. I've got plans for upgrade to the fire pit area along those lines

Wow just wow! That looks amazing, well done you two. For the life of me I cannot remember the name Cheryl calls you when you have your designer hat on? But I am gonna hire that guy! Pierre, Claude, Francois? I can’t remember!
Nice little Cottage.
You need a railing for those steps kind of steep.
Took a lunch break. Have 3/4 of the Valiant done.
That looks very good. My kind of food....
Thanks not as bad as it looks.Nice little Cottage.
Paul and kathy short have a ton of videos showcasing the products they manufacture to enhance the usefulness of the kubotas. Will give you ideas for toolholders and steps and grab handles. The list goes on. And the great east coast accent is awesome! https://youtube.com/user/7863348
Also orangetractortalks.com is a great site for everything kubota!
Was going to replace a couple bulbs on front of the avalanche. Nope. Changed em all! After removing grille and bumper cover an executive decision was made. More dumb **** that engineers cant get right.

Just need to get a gas bottle next week when the supply stores are open.
New gun installed.
Swapped out the .035 liner for a .025 - .030 to go with the .025 MIG spool... tip and.defuser
Put a new work clamp on, the copper braid on the old one was frayed.
Powered up. Fans ran well and and the wire fed very nicely.
Welder - $125
Gun - $55
Power cord - $75
Gas conversion kit - $279
$534 invested. Think I'm still ahead

Nothing feels better then a hot one in your ear or between your toes.
Your choice of footwear is good for sheet metal welding
Well I did get the Valiant cleaned up and it has some kind of shine to it now.

AutoZone actually had one . get home and the rain we are not supposed to get. Yep cars in the garage. Tomorrow is another day.

Sitting out in the shop winding down for the day, cussing Craig (he knows why, see pix) just plodding thru dry fire exercises for the day. Only thing worse than dry fire practice is not doing dry fire practice!
