Whoa!
Did (will?) you have to do much to get the forge set up? Seems that was one reason you liked the place.

Which car is that? The “road barge?”

My son just got himself a 2000 BMW, with 100,000 miles on it. He said he’s tired of paying for repairs on the Rav4 and the VW Beetle.

He does landscaping when he’s in between jobs. Not so much, any more, but I can send him up when MN thaws out. It’s kinda like you have winter and the 4th og July.

I'm re-using the brick from the barbecue pit. I have enough black iron pipe to run a tuyer and a clinker breaker. I have enough plywood, 1x4, and 2x4 for my great bellows, but I haven't cut anything out yet. Found a section of railroad steel for a temp anvil. I also have a small pile of scrap steel to start working as well.

The car is that 1978 Camaro I was talking about a few years ago. It's sitting out on my driveway up on jackstands. I have that new tranny for it, but I never did get around to getting the rebuild kit for it. Needs fluids, battery, interior, new front tires, and lots of paint. I have the tires for the front, I just need to get the old wheels off the front and take 'em into the local tire shop for mounting and balancing.

Lanscaping is getting started on Zon's new flower beds and converting the old pool area into a small pond and rock garden. We've some of the trellis to get started on part of it, need to run new ground wire for the fountain pump and the lighting.
