My daughter made this up with material scrounged from the scrapyard.

My scrounge was sitting on the side of the road this morning . Looks to be brand new did get some road rash ,guess someone is going to be pissed when they get to wherever they were headed 
The hitch pin clip looks way too big for the hitch pin . If the one on the receiver was like that no wonder it fell out

Is the ball shank 1"? It looks smaller too, but it may just be the perspective. The ball mount clearly says 1" hole. Those need to be matched as well as the clip.
Thanks! I thought so too. I helped guide her just a little bit, she did all of the work and LOVED doing it.
Yup a light duty hitch.
Finally ran a saw for a couple minutes. I took the 026 out for a rip with chain that I sharpened with my new grinder. It was Oregon .325 safety semi-chisel. 
Some chips, not too bad for dead ash.
Some views of the cutters
I can tell with the grinder that my hand filing angles weren't consistent. This chain cuts smooth and fast while my hand filed chains cut fast but not smooth.

My US General series 3 56ā box came in today. I love it, everything from my 3 tier 26ā craftsman box fit in the roller. It will really be awesome once I get the top box for it.
Not spruce but looks good.
Really hard to beat the U.S General boxes. I like the green, but could live with yellow if the price was right.
Working on a Detroit?
Not quite on the same level, but I've got a couple of Milwaukee Packout stacks going that are working out well for me. Tupperware tool chest..?
Loaned that to the other fleet so they could get up and running.
Sorry for the bad picture. The scaffold is staying in here till the last wall is finished. Put up the wall scabs for the desk. Just clamped some boards on to get a feel is I like the depth or want to go narrower. Same dimensions as the corner desk in my man cave in the house. Feels huge out here for some reason. I need to store all the same stuff, so I likely won't make it any smaller.

Cut Split Stack Burn
I had the tip of my right hand ring finger put back on
Little bit of nerve issues with it. My pal that drove me to the ER, I watched his facial expressions when they were doing their work. I couldnāt watch my handā¦
His eyeballs popped out his head, I asked what happened
He said ādude they just rotated and balanced your finger and put it back onā
Then Uncle Mike can tell you guys about the time I was maybe 2 and my sister was holding my dadās filet knife. I grabbed the blade and she pulled it away. I still (41 years later) have no feeling in that thumb
Mike drove the car to the ER that timeā¦
Fingers are needed!!

What's the story on the upside down cardboard box?
Good evening guys.
Basketball day here. My youngest is in 6th grade so finally this means the last season of all Saturday all winter ball. Love watching my kids but not at all sad about that.
Whipped up some homemade chicken florentine for dinner tonight.

Ouch! Gloves and machines/tools don't always play well together...
