That doesn't look right

Haven't popped in and said hi in a while. Work has been busy.
We decided to head out to the desert for the long weekend. While loading the trailer just happened to see this.



It is about 12" long on the wet shower wall.
No time to fix it properly, so tape it up for the trip.

The plastic feels very brittle. There is an additional crack above this one right above the water valve. Taped it up too

Be safe everyone.

In our house they sure are. Dog walker arrives at noon, long walks with us when the weather allows, vacations together, and they sleep with us. In some ways, closer than children.

I'm so glad that you cannot spoil a rescue animal our our pets would certainly all be considered spoiled.

Got some deliveries today. UPS, FedEx, and truck freight all here today. Got my Rivnut tool to install my General skids, the General skids, and my 35 ton splitter. Decided the splitter crate was the biggest waste of space and assembled it today in our 58 degree heat wave. Skids next. Picking up the chipper on Monday...

I like the compact design of the splitter. Where did you find it?

The splitter is about the same size as any other vertical/horizontal splitter Lee. it was just broken down small in the shipping crate... as Roy astutely points out... It was drop shipped directly from the manufacturer but I bought at a no store front, internet site called "Wood Splitters Direct"

I like that the Kohler is a 9.5 hp. My last splitter had a 5.5 Tecumseh with a 27 ton hydro. This thing is a monster...

Rodney,

2019 Dodge 1500. What do you think? I think they are starting with showing this color simply to get your business.

I think Ram is the second best looking truck Bruce. I'm certainly not a fan of their latest grills though...
