The guy that owns that must not be the one that built it. He gets what's coming to him. A high labor bill.Some lucky tech "gets" to put a water pump on this tomorrow. It's not visible from any direction that you try to look. :-(
If you want, I'll change it. Just give me a cutting torch, sawzall and an air chisel.

Hows it going Steve?

About as aerodynamic as a barn door. There should be lots of leftover space under the hood. ?????
Not much else going on.
Morning fellas!

Thursday morning, my Friday!
I have all the steel gathered to build a land plane. So, this evening the welding begins, it will probably be a late night. When completed it will have 12' high sides, measure 6' front to rear, 8' wide, & weight between 1,100-1,200 pounds. Should have enough weight it doesn't bounce around much. It will have a 3pt cat#2 hitch to pull with & brackets I can slide my forks in from the back to use it with the loader. I have around a mile of dead end road I maintain & a quarter mile long circle drive. My brother has a quarter mile drive as well. It will get plenty of use.

Good morning everybody. Today is a sad day for my family. Today is the day we take our foreign exchange student to the airport for her return home. Tears were already being shed last night just talking about it. My little guy (age 6) seems to be taking it the hardest. I hate to see her go too.
Take care today and have a great day. Carry on....

It's awesome how relationships can develop so quickly. My wife's family had a foreign exchange student several years ago & the following year her brother was invited to spend the year going to school in Spain. This summer MIL is going to visit that family.

Will you be doing build pictures of this? I don't need anything that big but would be interested in having something like it on a smaller scale for my driveway. It gets a bit rough with all the spring rain and such.
We had a foreign exchange student from Hong Kong live with us a few years back. Great experience for the whole family. We hated to see her go as well and we still keep up with her and her family via the internet. It was quite interesting just to talk to her and learn the differences between the cultures and living conditions. We are blessed beyond measure in these good old United States. Even with bills pounding down from every side and barely scraping by some months I feel like a very rich man here. May God continue to bless the USA.
On another note: morning all! Fourth cup of coffee down - you may speak to me without fear of injury.

Up for the second time this morning. No grandkids to watch today so time to 'get out of Dodge' like maybe north K.C..

Marc I will post photos of the build but it may not be until the first of next week. Have been using an old horse drawn grader but it has so much play in it I wanted something solid. Thus I am building it heavy so it will dig in better & not bounce around. I may add a screen/piece of expanded metal or fence between the second cutter & the rear screed at a later date to collect larger rocks, grass clumps, & other debris that gets turned up. I want to see how it works first.
Any suggestions on how much lower to mount the cutting edges below the level of the side skids?

Morning all!
I know the feeling. I friended a girl from the Ukraine my senior year in hs and we double dated to prom. (1999). We keep in touch and she even came back to the USA last April! It was so nice to see her and spend some time with her.

It didn't help that she was\is beautiful curvey, jet black hair, and her accent still makes my hair stand up on the back of my neck!
