Decided to putz in the shop since the weather hasn't been very pleasant. My welding skills may not be as nice as Lee's but as long as they don't look like bubble gum or pigeon poo I think it'll be fine. Here's a few things I've been working on.

As soon as the snow melts I need to make some more cows too. Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

Farmers don't mind me raiding their scrap piles as long as it's not off good machinery. Now when it's in between seasons and the winters get to be a bit long I have material to make a few things. Recently I was asked if I would be willing to sell a few pieces. My biggest problem now is determining which pieces I'm willing to part with.

I just need to find a base to finish it but we just got hit with another foot or more of snow so it might be a few weeks before I can access my scrap piles. Lee, my sister says she never could understand how my mind works so maybe that helps! Thanks everyone, it's fun for me to share with those who appreciate it.
