The front cross member I installed moved the center line forward to compensate for that, the picture I posted doesn't show but it is centered in the opening.

I went out and pressure washed the outside of the shop..........had to push myself thru it, but I think I can stagger thru a Monday.

Not doing a damn thing the rest of the day that does not involve the couch.

Good to see you have gone vertical for at least some time today, Dave.

Re-assess condition in the AM.

To have the income to support it, and the skills you exhibit in your work makes me very envious, John.

I have enough trouble keeping my old wrecks on the road, my money goes into the property and house, I am house rich, but car poor.

I'm rich by no means but do own everything I have, I'll miss the income when I retire but have most of the tools I'll need to complete this project, but may need to start fishing and hunting soon.
