Hope is goes or went well. Is it a replacment?

No on the replacement. They took out the torn meniscus and also cleaned up some damaged cartilage.

Hopefully she has a good recovery. Knee issues aren’t fun.

So it got a little warm out in the sun. Was only high 70’s overall but with the building behind me reflecting the heat back down and the grill in from of me the ambient was over 100…

Afternoon folks. Been playing whack a mole on the to do stuffs at the out of town place. Had a good run so far today!

Next up a beverage or several, and get some brats on the grill.

I'm headed across the border on Tuesday but not sure I can pull the logistics together that quickly. Flying out of Fargo instead of through MSP this time, don't want another stranding in MSP like last June.

Don't worry about it.. And I'm not near Fargo anyway

I'm trying to put a trip north of the border on my calendar to visit some family this summer. And pick up in person. Maybe we'll add another day to get your way as well.

Final grill count was 120 burgers and 108 hot dogs.
Even a couple hours later when I got home I was still sweating grease out of my pores. Glad to get a shower and refresh. Taking the fam out for ice cream later.

Evening folks. Spent the better half of a paycheck at the auto body supply shop and started laying down some fiberglass filler on the Skylark.

I've learned that a 120 volt mig welder just ain't got enough pumpkin to be welding stuff on my hay baler.

Does this mean your hay is still on the ground?

I've been confident in my welds with it as long as I vee grooved my material. That changed today. A sprocket I welded with in broke this morning, then this afternoon a tube I welded broke. Neither weld had good penetration. Grooved the parts out again, and welded them with the arc welder and a 7018 rod.

When I first started welding, I didn’t always take the time to prep the joint…usually ended up having to redo my work. If the material is thick enough to stick weld, I like to do a root pass with 6010 (usually 1/8”) and follow it up with a 7018. A 6011 will work in place of the 6010 if you don’t have a good DC welder.

Welding is like sex!























The more penetration the better!

Any estimate of the final yet? Half done? 3/4?
