Nice work, I enjoy projects like this too.

Well the car sold today from the FB add, in total I had 5 what I believe to be scammers from Craigslist. I immediately shut down the adds, glad it sold quickly, probably stick to Marketplace in the future.

I bought a tabletop fryer, I fry chicken breasts cut into “tenders” I like KYKernel breading after an egg wash. We‘re empty nesters too, changes how and what dinners are for sure.

My youngest daughter just bought a new to her car, Dad now gets to sell the family college car. I listed it on Fb Marketplace and Craigslist. I’m up to 4 scammers now, area codes as far away as California. They ask a few questions and then want a vin report and send a link in the text. These all...

My brother always makes Brisket for our Thanksgiving get togethers, we do also have Turkey. I tried smoking my first brisket and I’m not at his level, it wasn’t bad but part of it was dried out. I’m not giving up though just picked one up to give it another shot. I grind Brisket for some darn...

Looking great!

Just made these, I enjoy making knives and other things from railroad spikes to give as gifts, these are steak hooks, for turning your steak on the grill, left and right hand ones. My work is still a bit crude.

Now I want a Chuck Norris sticker like that!

My tractor is approaching 4 years old, I store it in a barn with no electricity so no trickle charger. This winter it turned over weaker than normal. I charged the battery and this spring it seems ok, for now. It’s possibly on borrowed time.

I‘m so sorry to hear this, you’re in our thoughts and prayers

We have a 1999 Mercedes E300, 6cylinder inline turbo diesel, 283k miles and still going. Engine and transmission have never had a serious issue. I bought it with 116k miles on it, best car I’ve ever owned as far as reliability. It is harder to get parts for it, I have to order them, even oil...
