Hi Everyone! We're looking forward to seeing a lot of you next weekend.

Just a reminder that we will have a liability waiver EVERYONE needs to sign before playing with saws!

And please make sure you wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment to keep yourself and others safe.

It's going to be a great weekend & we really appreciate everyone's help in making this a success!

You can always use this as a crib sheet if you haven't made up the waiver yet.

How is the Splitter coming Doug???

Last of the parts should be here we'd afternoon.

The part I am waiting on is a manifold for 12 return lines. Did not want a gang of black pipe fittings for all the return lines before the filters. Thought a manifold would look much better. I am not a fan of using black pipe for hydraulic fittings. It would work for the pressure of the return lines but I don't like it.

So how do you drive this thing?? I see a steering wheel but no chair...???

Holy hoses and returns!! 12 return lines!! Geesh!! Ok, so I have to ask, what are you going to do to it to make sure it's over kill? You know, cause over kill is under rated........and the new norm!

Can't wait to see it in action!! Keep up the good wood Doug!


Oh, 5 days and counting!! WEWT!

You need some stabilizer legs too, at least six of em, everything has those on em now.

And then of course, a bigger reserve tank to hold the extra fluid for the rams. Maybe even a fan cooled radiator.

Oh yes, and powder coat everything! I know it's a disaster if the monkey who does it powder coats the fittings, the rams, radiator, safety sensors, or a bunch of other stuff, but it looks really cool! Why powder coat everything AFTER the sensitive pieces are assembled? Well that would make too much sense, besides, might scratch the powder coat while assembling things.

Then what else, oh yeah, rubber overcoating/overmoldings. Sure you can use the paint/dip on stuff, or you can get fancy.

Hmm, what else? Low profile tires? Spinners? La Cucaracha horns? Backup beeper? LED taillights/signal lights.....

Got one stabilizer leg.

Powered coat would show the imperfections. Went with epoxy paint.

Looks like a busy Saturday!
