What did you accomplish today?

Dug a ditch between house and garage and burried a pair of 2" conduits a few weeks ago. Gas & electric. Bought $500 in electrical stuff, 100 amp box, breakers, wire, etc. Electrician gave me a list...today he threaded underground line and did most of the wiring. We kinda severed the original line over there with a Kubota digging the ditch. Shit happens. Also bought a gas heater for garage...over kill, so was the 1" line we ran over there...I like heat in the winter. My daughter will be living here but I will be using her garage occasionally when she's at work...;-) 0518161608a.jpg
 
Tore apart a front axle for my project truck, stated fabbing a new coil seat, old one rotted out. Slipped with the cut off wheel and ran it across my knuckle. .ended my day. .that was bloody as all hell .at least I can still move it. I got more scars that skin on my hands. ..
Those mechanix gloves are nice. I gave up busted knuckles a long time ago.
 
I remembered about a video I used to watch everyday when I first started smoking, watching it sure makes me feel like I accomplished something nostalgia.

I thought you were getting a new phone today and posting pics of your new and improved self...stop lettin' us down kid, lots of guys waiting for a spot on the team here...might have to option you to the minors for a couple weeks.
 
We almost finished garage, ran out of paint...have to go get another gallon to finish and to touch up where electrician (who showed up a day early to finish wiring) scratched a few spots that weren't dry yet. Got some nice new outlets though, and he left boxes for electric door openers and 3 flouro shop lights for after ceiling is paneled next week. This is going to be one bad ass garage... 0519161604.jpg 0519161632.jpg
 
We erected this well planter last year. Previously, it was square and yellow brick like garage. It twisted on it's axis at age 56 from ice and snow expansion & contraction and we replaced with this last summer. This is the 1st year to grow in it...a few tomato plants and a few peppers and 4 jalapeno plants to the right. It'll be a jungle in there by August. 0519161725.jpg 0519161758.jpg
 
set this up for someone today, was proud of it so i took a pic. i had an idea and the home owner let me run with it.. all she knew she wanted was a free standing tub next to her deck so she can take a bath and look out the windows. was a huge pain in the ass to hide the lines and drains.. (no basement underneath or access) but i did it! lol

You install tubs??? wish I knew that last month. Had the folks at vintage tub and bath sell me the WRONG plumbing package. Seems they think "wall mount" means wall of the tub not wall of the bathroom. what a headache.
