| Nice, smokey, shop! One of the guys as work got one of those type electric smokers. He loves it! One of the things he enjoyed was sitting on the couch with a cold one and check his phone to check the smoker. Nice. What kind of dogs you got? I have 5, LOL. | |

| I'm with you tater195, I typically get a project done in about 3-4 weeks. I'm going so slow with this one that I am trying to work out the little things as it goes. Also saves on burnout since there is some competition about it. | |

| Put the last coat of paint on the smoker this morning. Did a test run last weekend and it works good. I am ready to get back on this project. I have a full week of vacation the week after next, so it wont take long to get caught back up. I have 3 lt flippers to get cleaned up and posted on CL the next week. | |

| When I fall off the tracks, I get WAY off. The smoker is mostly done. Basement flooded last week so I have been dealing with that. The grass is goin nuts now so I moved up the flipper LT. Parts come in for it friday. It will be a quick 4 hour job. That should put me back on the hot rod by saturday. | |

| I have been slacking on this project for almost a month. I try to do at least 1 thing a day to keep it moving. Today I tacked down the tunnel angle, drilled out the motor mount holes, mounted the steering sector and finished a few more frame welds... that was after I mowed 5 acres, made a raised garden for the wife, worked on the boat, tried to fish for a few hours, cleaned the shop, replaced the busted belt on one of the mowers and fixed a flat on my sons car. Vacation my ass. Yesterday my wife scheduled a "massage" because my lower back was bothering me. I feel like I fell out of the back of a truck again. Now I know what it feels like to have your ass kicked by a short fat chick and had to pay her to do it. WTF? | |

| Man o man, I know what it is like to be down in the back. I had several times that I could not even stand and it hurt too bad to lay down. I found that the leather belt that I was wearing was pinching my nerve in my lower back. I quit wearing that belt and went to a stretchy one and I haven't been down again. I've been sore a few times, but not debilitating. I hope your back gets better quick. | |
