Wes806 Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Sure looks a lot better over that way. When I started my lawncare business in 96 everyone said my place would be last to get done and it wouldn't look as good as everyone's else place told it won't be boy was I ever wrong. Quote
bitty Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Haven't heard from MTO lately or maybe I just too busy that I didn't notice when he was here last. @MTO ? Quote

mader656 Posted April 6, 2019 Author Posted April 6, 2019 Little sunset road work today. The Nebraska v Iowa Gods country post has me saying Montana. 70 sheets of used roofing metal would have been a load on the tractor. This played with it. Finally this is my 10 month olds nothing is wrong I just require mommy face. This is getting old and loud fast...but they are only young once. 3 Quote
mader656 Posted April 9, 2019 Author Posted April 9, 2019 This weeks project is a community build playground. Today was mudding in the post holes.it the new playgound is on top a old one, they sure liked their concrete. 4 posts took a hydraulic breaker to break up. 3 yards of concrete. The smaller machine got stock a once. Sure glad we had the breaker available new rental in town. Quote
mader656 Posted April 11, 2019 Author Posted April 11, 2019 We think dad's tumor is growing, mom thinks a couple more weeks till he'll need near full time care. Thinking I'll be headed to parents sooner than later. 3 Quote
mader656 Posted April 21, 2019 Author Posted April 21, 2019 First thunderstorm of the year. It snowed 4 inches a week and a half ago. sigh 1 Quote
mader656 Posted April 25, 2019 Author Posted April 25, 2019 First posts of the year went in today. Best first day of fencing season ive ever had. Knocked 20 posts in in 4 hours. Rears may be cheapos but finally they match. I love this time of spring it's turning so green. The DIY chloride pump worked flawlessly, took about 45 minutes. 5 Quote
mader656 Posted April 25, 2019 Author Posted April 25, 2019 I also decided to take the left door off for the summer...so much easier to get in and out of. Should have done it the last 4years. Quote

exSW Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Right where that post is going is fill. But you're right no fun. That why Marine grade .60 6x. I don't want to do it again. Quote
mader656 Posted April 29, 2019 Author Posted April 29, 2019 Good morning to me it was rather windy yesterday I thought a chunk of 2x6 14 ga would hold it down... Boy was I wrong... 2 Quote
12_Guy Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Mader, I've had the same problem before. I have found that the best way to secure a pile of tin is to run a couple of straps around the pile. This keeps the edges together and prevents the wind from lifting a single piece. If it moves the whole pile you will probably have other problems as well. It works for me. Quote

If a guy had access to wire plyers and some fencing wire he might be able to bundle up and save it from most winds 4 Quote

mader656 Posted May 1, 2019 Author Posted May 1, 2019 April 30 at least I don't have hurricanes tho joplin mt on highway 2 had a 97 mph gust.... While it was snowing 6 inches that couldn't have been fun. I'd guess I had 60 plus at my house. No snow till after the wind for me. Baby decided to cut a tooth last night...looks like 3 more coming very soon. 2 Quote
