Random stuff you have made

[Perplexed]

So I borrowed the light box idea from my dining room table, and I modified the tray I posted in #727 using a walnut skirt. The bottom of the skirt is covered with a reinforced sheet of whiteboard, with an LED strip inside the space created. When plugged in, the epoxy glows with a cool purplish tint. Pics...

We had some cows on a neighbor today. They got off into some very wooly rough country of ours and then went out a big washed out water gap tween us and the neighbor. His lil 80ac is nice and mostly flat with little brush. We followed the cows off of his place and they led us to the water gap. I had my wife on our place with the Feedtruck siren blaring. Once the cows got out of the brush she led em about a mile to the other end of our pasture. We knew we would need the dozer to get to the gap from our side. We also knew we would need the kubota side by side to haul our fencing supplies. Since there was just to of us to drive equipment and we couldn’t take a tractor with hydraulic pipe driver, I wondered if I could build a t-post kinda driver that we could hook a chain to and use the up/down motion of the dozer blade to get a 3” pipe in the ground on each side of the creek. Well, yes it works. Our dozer has a 6-way blade and lifts roughly 30” off the ground. The top of the blade has a big eyelet on each top corner. Wish I’d taken a picture or two of the rig hooked up. I was concentrating on which way to run when tension started building on the chain. We pushed em in the ground a good 3’ until the front of the dozer would lift off the ground. This will be a handy tool since we’ve got lots of rough country and creeks.

We will be relocating to the wooly rough country at that time.

Just as long as we can follow you. Will a 4-wheeler cut it, or are we gonna' need a dozer?

That’ll make it to where we start the last 3 miles in by horseback or foot.

I can handle that! I might come in last place, but I'll get there!

Well, this isn't really something I "made", but I did make it run again (with the help of @swampratt) so that counts right? [emoji38][emoji38]

That’s awesome! I remember you mentioning the mustang in one of our deals. Jeff knows his stuff for sure. Glad you got it going.
