Which bed liner product did you use? That layed out pretty nicely.

up north a lot of guys use this for 2 reasons, it's pretty durable and most important- cheap. i bought a small can for the bumpers and sacrificed an old detail gun to paint them. pretty tough, you can wack it with a wrench and don't do any damage. would i do a bed with it, no. pretty tough to get a liner better than Rhino or Line-x. i've had a Line-x in my crew for 15 yrs and when i can afford a bedliner for my new truck, it too will get a Line-x. i have a buddy who sprayed the floor of his jeep with this stuff, it does seem to be holding up very good so far

for the flares i just used their spray cans. i find if i spray from about 12-15" away, it fogs down with a real nice almost factory like texture. total cost for one small can and 2 sprays was around 50 bucks with taxes

Good info, thanks. I like that you can get a smooth satin finish with it. Good protection and looks painted rather than textured. I assume you can hold the gun/can a little further away for more texture.

Just an aluminum ladder I screwed a couple of 1 x 4 onto it and use GRK wood screws to anchor it to the log this is used on the first cut to get a nice flat surface.

Maybe not -- apparently gas chainsaws 45cc or larger are still allowed.

Read that also and anything over 25hp will still be available . I see lots of big cube tractors and lawn mowers in California’s future. Be great having a 30 hp zero turn mower

I went to a lady's house to buy a used overhead door for my shop yesterday. She also had this. Her husband died a year ago while having hip replacement surgery.

I bought the door but not the truck. My wife was proud of me.....

Good on ya for making the missus proud -- but your reputation on the board has likely suffered.

I think it has been slipping anyway so this just adds fuel to the fire....

Maybe so..... but if it gets too bad, Leon still knows where that truck is.

[best view]

Maybe he has one of those already only logical reasons I can think of he didn’t buy it

[Lost in the 60's]

Am I the only one who wants to know how much she wanted ??

[Getter-Done]

She may Not be ready to let Go of That Chevy just yet.

[Lost in the 60's]

The way I read Leon's post, is, she offered to sell it to him ??

It isn't advertised at this time.

Cause I told myself no more projects... It does run and drive though.

The only thing she said is that she was offered $4k for it and she told the guy no. 6 would probably buy it, maybe 5.

Yes, she needs the money to see if she can keep from losing the property. She also has a nice Chevy Impala Convertible and a Harley of some kind.

Yes, I could have bought it. A friend of mine that went with me is checking to see if his brother wants it.

Well, that's sad to read she is in danger of losing her home/property. Lose her husband during a, normally, routine surgery and now might lose the home ? Any neighbors/community/family doing a fund raiser for her ?

Not that I know of. She is a member of the local fire department in the town where she lives and works at a local meat locker/retail store. The locker/retail store is where I talked to her.

[Lost in the 60's]

As a member of the fire dept., I would think they could sponsor a pancake breakfast benefit for her. Seems fire dept.'s used to do things like that for local folk. Or is VFW's, American Legions, Boy Scouts ???
Maybe she isn't letting on about her financial situation to get help. Us old folk can be like that...

[72c20customcamper]

Don’t think she will have a problem selling the truck . If it were closer I’d be all over it .

Finished up this seasons maple syrup . 5 quarts today and a little over 3 gallons put up

[Steeveedee]

Got tired of the moss on the bricks in front and back of the house, and bought a cheap pressure washer. Works pretty good. No pics, yet. Before is embarrassing, after isn't done.

[72c20customcamper]

Did some milling today . I’m in the process of building a log table so I can do the milling standing up .

[sakustoms]

I spent 3 days part time doing shirts for my side business.

Phase 3 of the add on/remodel. Dining room and pantry are done and the she side shed addition is finished. On to the "He side". Chris wanted tounge and groove poplar. Got the main room walls covered over the last week and started on the bath today. I didn't think I would like it, but I really do. It is a pain but once it is up, I can walk away. Here is a look at the progress so far. I drew up a few renderings to show them and we still of course lack all the trim. I will build a 10' long bottom cabinet with a sink on the left wall like the drawing. I built some built-in shelving because there is no room for upper cabinets, due to the shorter walls.
