Did the 1000 hr service on the B1700. Fresh oil, filter and I did the fuel filter and cleaned out the air filter as well. As a bonus I pulled the mmm and sharpened the blades, lubed it and scraped all the built up grass. Then I fought the PTO shaft for a good 10 minutes to get it back on. FEL...

Well today was clean and repair day. Started with my old Craftsman Pressure Washer. 20+yrs and she started first pull. The brass regulator and screws holding it on the pump however had enough. After an evening of parts searching, time for a replacement. Picked up a Troy Built from Sam’s...

Back from our trip and time to do the annual grade on the drive. 3 hrs later and done. Why do I always pick the days where there is no wind and I wear the dust?

Not a big fan of fried foods anymore but I may have to try a traditional schnitzel

Yes. Very buttery hash browns. So it was veal pan seared with mushrooms and onions in a brown gravy with a side of hash browns. No breading. Quite tasty

Vacation vittles. Veal schnitzel Zurich style

Happy Birthday!

A little bit of bacon out of a 10 day cure and 5hrs on the smoker. In to the fridge to rest and slice Monday

Get the popcorn and pull up a chair. This is gonna be good.

Finally done. Got it moved outside and ready to fill. Was in the mid 70s here today allowing me to get the roof on and not burn up. The barn is ready for the meat chickens

Finished the woodshed and moved it out with the B3200. Now I have to move all the wood inside. It’s sitting on concrete blocks on top of the millings. I’ll add more and level them out once the wood is in

Well, out of 5/8 wood screws so hopped on the mower with a stick and cut the grass. Blackberries starting to come in

Moved the firewood and got me a pad built for the woodshed. No tamping equipment except for the B3200 and a FEL loade with road millings. Now back to the roof after a short break for lunch and some thinking about the next step

Well the boss wanted a pool so we picked up a 9x18x5 job. It was overcast this AM so we got it set up. The B3200 had the transport job for the box and I stacked all the cement pads for the supports on the quad. Waiting on the water guy to stop by and fill in next week. Sun came out for the...

Here is what I use on the B3200 flexible and the phone stays in the mount.

Day 4. Got the bucket forks on the B3200 and confirmed it can lift with all the side panels stacked. Side panels attached. Stopping for the day as storms roll in. Tomorrow I finish up the side trim and the roof and hopefully set it outside.

Well I was gonna eat lunch till I opened this thread. You boys ain’t right. And I’m ok with that

Thanks. All the pressure treated is culled so 75% off. The most expensive thing will be the roof panels. It is 4’ deep and 7’ wide so 3 rows of 16” cut firewood. I’ll grab the remaining parts after work Friday and hopefully get it done by Sunday. Heat is slowing me down a bit

Finally cooled down a bit to get the mounting braces for the side panels on and the roof rafters cut and installed. Picked up cedar fence pickets that I will cut to size to use for the sides. Lightweight and bug resistant. I need to do a test lift with the B3200 before I add more weight. On tap...

Well I stepped back and looked and it just didn’t look right. Sure enough 1.5 in out at the top. Loosened the screws and drew it in with a wratchet strap. Much better. Wife pulled the plug on today for dinner with friends. B1700 gets to live outside tonight.
