Things built, torn down and other projects.(Pictures)

A year or so ago I built this attachment to use in the garden to make ridges to plant sweet potatoes in. It works pretty good.

 

[MWR]

This week I built a set of lay off plows for the thing. They work pretty good. And removal is just a matter of removing a bolt on the front of them and sliding them out.

 

[MWR]

And having a little spare time, I remodeled these old "triple shovel" plows to make a cultivator. It seems to work ok, but I don't have any garden plants big enough to cultivate. Yet.

And they just slide in these 2 inch square metal tubes and bolt on.

What a man will do to avoid using a hoe

No pics yet, but SLOWLY revamping the kitchen. Floor sanded sanded and restained. About 90 year old oak flooring. Haven't coated yet cause I'm still working on cabinets and didn't want to mar it up. Got base cabs, wall cabs, and microwave ductless vent over range. That wall only had range and small side table on it. Gotta get started soon on the main wall getting old cabs out, putting studs back in that were took out, and setting new ones. Guess I'll saw off sections off the base cabs to minimize time without sink.

Should've bought two.

That was my thought after leaving the store.

Trying out another lay off plow I just got finished with. This one makes a ridge and then splits it in two.

I have some good reasons for doing it this way.

That's an awesome implement!

That's an awesome implement!

And obviously home made. And all detachable.

Today is my last of 5 off. Let me tell ya how I spent my time off.

I have a carport next to the garage. The last big winds we had (2 months ago) ripped the old rolled shingles off the roof. I finally got a plan, the time, and cooperative weather to put the plan in action.

I ripped off all the old chit(shingles, felt, OSB, etc...) and hauled it all to the dump.

I've got all my new pieces-parts in place except for the finished roof, which will be metal.

Presently, I am taking each rafter down, and pulling all nails and screws. I am on #5 of 15. Hope to be done with this part, along with the ridge, today.

I admire you guys that do this chit on the daily. It's hard, tedious work.
