Gate Insert -- First paying (non-family) job

admin

Someone referred this person to me today, and they wanted me to build a gate insert.  New to me as I haven't ever done it before, but it was fun.That isn't a patina you are seeing... just a reflection of the light.The sun is 1/4" mild steel, and the ring was done out of 1"x1/8" mild steel.

Reply:Sweet. It is good to see it is coming along for you. I'm still jealous about that table.  We are on our way to being farmers! Our site is always under construction so check back often for updates.  http://www.philosophyfarmstyle.com/
Reply:John, thats definately lookin good.  Thats what I originally bought my 4X4 for, but it kinda grew into other stuff to help pay for it.  It's paid off and I got time, so I need to get back out there when I feel well and run the darn thing.  It was a ton of fun and made a dollar or two back then, but I will have to see how I do physically since I cant lift, pull or tug anymore.  Spend about 75% of the time in a wheel chair too, so I got a lot of figuring and modding to do so I can reach it all again.  Oh well, like I said I got time!BobI'm spending my Kids inheritance, I dont like him that much anyway!!!!!!Enuff tools to do the job, enough sense to use em.Anybody got a spare set of kidneys?  Trade?

Reply:Originally Posted by jdh239Sorry to hear that.  Hope you can get back into it.  I CNC wood and stuff at times, but I have to say, every time I start to melt metal I get a smile on my face.... don't know why.  Hope you can get back into it soon.... maybe you can build yourself some stuff to help lift/tug/pull stuff.How long did it take you to pay it off?
