    oh hell yeah! that is suh frikkin weet! yes, same finish as vape box please, nice! let me know on the bill. i am running a little behind on the social commitments, just ask ravensfan. but i'm good for it, write it down, i give you my word, i speak for that golf ball display case.

    i am buried at work in a difficult year for ag loans, folks bet the farm all the time but this year some are done, and i'm the man behind the guy with the fast voice and the gavel, bad deal, it happens. got some budget concerns with new pickup and other purchases, an unhappy kitten who refuses to lay down at my feet and purr, and apparently god is still mad at me about something because the fates and cards just won't come my way. i just keep walking, i'll get there, i know.

    how is your old spot doing? under an "acting" with the hire freeze or did they manage to quick fill? cheers brother.

You'll see a picture below. I've completed final sanding and plan to assemble and apply the finish tomorrow. If all goes as planned, I'll have ready for shipment by Thursday,,, Friday at the latest. I hope it meets your approval? I just want to confirm if you wanted me to put the same finish on this as I put on the vape box. Just let me know.

    Here is the project I just completed with the bulk of the remaining barn wood. I'm pleased with how this Grill Cart turned out.

    Sorry the pictures are oriented wrong. They show up fine on my computer then they get flipped when I post them to the forum.

    Burrocrat,

    Yes, my old gig is temporarily under "acting". I was glad STC & COC asked for my input on who should fill it under a short term arrangement and long term. Currently, a good friend from a neighboring county is working with my outstanding staff. Hopefully, they'll be able to fill it permanently soon. It's important to me that the next "sheriff" will be a good fit!

    I'll send you a pm about the bill. It wasn't as much a detailed project as the vape station.

    Have you tried a little tenderness?

    here is the deal, i have been sitting on this info for over a week and i'm torn, but i just can't help it, i have to show you this...

    i ordered some laser-tech custom fit floormats for my newish pickup, to keep the snow and melting ice and dirt and mud off the damn fancy carpet, and i can't hardly believe what was in the package. the back seat one is a full length mat that covers everything and i got that installed the other day, then i kept digging in the box. the front driver's side has these little snaps and buttons to lock it in place built in, but not the passenger front side, so they send you these "devices" to anchor it down.

    you got to see this!

    at first i think "ahh yeah!"

    so it comes with instructions on how to anchor the passenger front side down:

    first you twist and snap, then you feel around and line it up, then you push until you hear it pop! no freakin way, did they hire a 16 year-old to write this stuff? you got to be kidding me? they even have diagrams to show you how to do it! like health class from the 1980's or something. holy crap!

    this is the backside of the, uhh, the uhh, things...

    Attachment 40813

    so at first i thought oh yeah, then now i'm thinking, uh oh, might've bit off more than i can chew here.
