16 of my Gen II blades ground from bar stock to ready for heat treatment.

Plus: All my half life grinding belts wore to the point they now feel as smooth as toilet paper. One of them blown on me but nothing serious.
And, finally I "polished" my left hand knuckles on a 36 grit belt - then I realized it was time to go back to the PC.
Now just when I thought I would get some rest, I call my friend Ariovaldo for a beer and he tells me to go to his shop to help move his new Little Giant from the truck and assemble it!
When will the week start so I can get some rest??? :rolleyes:
 
Never a dull moment!!! :D :D Well just your belts :D You must have some smooth hemorrhoids if you use your old belts for toilet paper. :eek: :eek: I know Portagees hate to part with any money, but I think this is going a little to far. HEHEHE!!!! :rolleyes:
 
Guess I wasn't the only one running hard all weekend.
Saturday I had to haul hay in the morning. Spent the afternoon finishing up my welding table (put casters on it). Then I rode my horse and got her trimmed up for the horseshow Sunday. By the time I got all that done and the trailer hitched up it was 9:00PM.
Started Sunday at 5:00AM feeding the horses. Went to the horseshow (won 1st and 3rd place :D ) and got home about 11:00. Then we tried to clean the stalls and were almost done when our trailer broke .It has a hydraulic dump bed on it and the cylinder ripped loose from the front end of the frame. So then I got to weld on the damn thing for 5 hours (burning horseshit smells great :barf: ). Once I finally got that fixed and my shop cleaned up from it I went ahead and finished my KITH knife. By the time 10:00 rolled around I could hardly move. The hell of it is I didn't get near as much done this weekend as I'd have liked to :rolleyes:
