I may actually have help with the house extension on Sunday... I'll not hold my breath but I do have a sorta-kinda commitment from a framer buddy, so "it could happen." 'smits may yet get her new laundry room/sewing room. And I get the back wall of my garage back!
 
oh, I have no doubts about having it back together before the sun sets on Sunday. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif

The only things that ~might~ slow me down are the "might as wells" that I might encounter /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
 
house siding, i am about half way thru this project. 3 days of straight rain have really slowed me down. The forecast is for a fairly reasonable weekend....

A friend who's a local policeman just stopped by & gave me his cell phone number in case I need an escort!!
 
Today {Friday} {Watching the Stansbury Mountain range burn, 9 miles west of me} went out and looked over the front fenders for my Tr-3 {They need repair on the rear lower bottoms}. Contemplating attempting to manufacture a repair panel myself.
I think I can manage this task ....... contemplating what I will need in the way of tools I don`t have. Possibly a trip to H.F. Monday to take a look at a spot welder and a pressurised pot blaster. {I been wanting both anyway}.
Saturday, {Still Watching the Stansbury Mountain range burn, 9 miles west of me}.. Niece is having B Day Party so travel up valley {North towards Idaho} 100 miles to visit Grandma, {Mother in law} and go to Becky`s party.
Sunday, travel 100 miles back home, take care of yard duties watering, mowing, ETC. Get ready for the 40 mile trip into S.L.C. and H.F. I will make on Monday.
 
Tomorrow AM is off to Tractor Supply to pick up new wheels and misc. hardware for the utility trailer I just got. It's a converted boat trailer with nothing more than a 4x8 plywood deck right now. I gotta get it ready to haul camping gear before next weekend.
Then it's off to the junkyard to borrow thier scales to get said trailer weighed so I can register it.
Other than getting that all ready, I still need to clear out the basement pantry to build my darkroom and get the giant enlarger out of my kitchen.
 
Sat-clean out an old Shop Smith from garage. Load of garbage to dumps so I can use the trailer to load both Shop Smiths up. Clean up shop area in barn (hired a friend's son in law) and build work benches.

Sun- put together the woodworking tools I just got from an elderly gentleman that can't do it any more. (Band saw, 6"jointer, wood lathe with duplicator). Then build a couple of proto type jewery boxes.

PS Wife is at an iris sale Sat so I'm free.
 
If ya get bored with the wood working tools, you can
ship to Puerto Rico where they will get a great home
and much loving use.
