Yes, even trying to bevel the joints so I wil be able to use the tool post grinder I had to buy a couple years ago and never used it yet!! Only thing I'm still unsure of is making a pretty precise jig to hold the small pieces while tiggin. Just have to remind myself lots of small tacks first. !! Aw, my redneck engineering, the orings will take up the misalignments;). And what piece of machinery doesn't have a few oil leaks? See I'm giving all my secrets away, yea, it's made to look used, was hard making those dents, warps, and oil leaks!!! Lol!!!!!

Still in the process of moving into the new house, then this little ba$&ard chased me around yard!!! Had shorts on and it didn't stop him from climbing up my leg!! Then bit me when I grabbed him!!! What the he!!? Just what I don't need right now another pet nut eater!! Going to give him some dry warm quarters for a day or two then he's got to go back out to the cold harsh real world!!!!

Mr. Nutter's offspring or friend coming after you for putting him out last fall?

Cooper 05-04-2016 09:57 PM

Re: Great Dane excavating co.
 
Well it's springtime and no reason he can't stay outside:). I'm giving him a warm dry place to rest up for a day (maybe two depending if rain tomorrow) and some food. He can run, not too fast yet, his eyes are open, and he has a couple grinders and chiselers that I can see. Gave him some sunflower seeds and such. I just didn't have the heart to run fast enough when he first started running towards me;). The last nut eater I had wasn't much help working on the d11 and just too rough of an operator on the excavator!! So I'm done hireing the locals!!! They are better at carpentry than running equipment!! At least this guys family is , I have seen the work they have been doing on the eves of the house!!!

And one with the ex and dozer. Now that I have to make the back yard normal people friendly I have a few jobs to do with the dozer. Gong to be removing all the rocks and leveling the pit. Will become grass just like rest of yard. But new house has lots of options. And hopefully I can get started on new workshop/man cave!!

Started on the garage project.

http://i1357.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6ar7kh9m.jpg

I really wanted to just pour overtop existing concrete. I need to raise up floor to have better surrounding drainage. But after pulling some broken areas up found that base is crap and concrete varies from 1" to about 6". And that's not at edges but all over. Part of trying to keep expense down I'm doing the floor demo and slider door along with overhead door. Had some guys call and they need the work so might be getting underway within the week.

Re: Great Dane excavating co.
 
Will keep that in mind!!! Lol!!!

So after another day of working, I just wanted to lay on couch!!! Well that's not gonna happen!!!

http://i1357.photobucket.com/albums/...psdbyeifmu.jpg

Had to share a doggie pic!:)

Anyway, tomorrow the guys are going to start on floor and demolition of exterior on the new Great Dane construction company shop!!! Getting it done sooner than thought.

http://i1357.photobucket.com/albums/...psbjrwk8qo.jpg

I'm thinking there may be a fighting chance the dumptruck may be able to get finished for the Canadian invasion at marios!!!! :). Right now I'm shooting to get floor and exterior done. Then I can move tools and machines in. Have all summer and fall to insulate and do walls/ceiling/new wiring and lights. Have till August to get truck done. Oh and that other thing, the work that pays the bills!!! Tried working once, didn't like it and still don't!!! And the boss only pays me for one day! Friday!!! Wtf!?!?! Lol!

That's a worth while trim mike! Maybe sometime when time allows a short weekend trip would be nice, and once I get things arranged down here all are welcome too!!

As the moving of company headquarters has delayed work, the latest batch of tree rats have been released. Or should I say the next generation of Great Dane construction company employees;).

Re: Great Dane excavating co.
 
And the remodeling of new shop has been slow but outside is done with exception of garage door. That should be in the next two weeks. Real life work has also been busy along with moving into the farmhouse. Move is pretty much done and still have to finish remodeling old house so I can get it on the market. Not looking forward to moving all the machines and tools/parts/supplies from old garage. I should have interior walls/insulation done well before winter. Really want to get work on haul truck done for the Canadian invasion!!!
