This is shots of the long side and the short side...….lots of angle cuts. Its been many moon since I tilted the blade. IMG_20200514_124746141.jpg.da6652000bac588235ad5dde1f2792e7.jpgIMG_20200514_124838496.jpg.19a1176003b5541672cea62232b8792b.jpg

Lots of pieces clamped and didn't want to glue anything till things looked okay.

   Sometimes I forget the drawing part and do the designing with the pieces..The four corner pieces are legs that will be shifted up or down before the gluing takes place. And yes I am wondering what it will be also??IMG_20200514_131212087.jpg.1f7c41a0a176c4f1a3789d47b83f434b.jpg

Customer was going off about masks and the filth in the shop. Blah blah blah.  I can't throw insults back, they might have hurt feelings.:D

I have mastered the blank stare of confusion. Once they get done and look at me for a reply I use my best Russian accent and say, "no English."

 

Gotcha moment.:o

Well I had to stop and eat lunch. That was a mistake!!  Wife does a great job cooking so it wasn't her food... Its just I had my thoughts on where and what to do next in the shop.. now I'm kinda lost... 

  Yesterday I decided to use the Kubota and picked up the 2 old riding lawn mowers and set them up along the road for who ever wants them. Both have been sitting under a tree for about 4 or 5 years but they both did run when I took them down there by the lake.. both are the same model and both have the shuttle shift and big motors.. One I aired up the tires but the other one I ran out of air in the tank and was too lazy to get more air so it sat there by the road still flat...In about 1 hour a man and his little boy stopped and asked about them.  He said how much for the two mowers and I said how much you got.. He said no money and I said then they are free...I told him how long they been sitting there under that tree and he asked if I had road them both up to where they were sitting. He did say that's great they are free but after I said no I didn't crank them up and drive them up to the road. I told him with new batteries and cleaning out the gas tanks I think they will run okay and one does have a brand new starter. I bought it off of my brother in law and he told me he must have got a couple wires crossed or something for when he started the mower engine the starter kept running and he killed it and sold it to me....Well they didn't come back today and load up the mowers so after I said no they haven't been cranked for a few years he might have changed his mind...  

  These two mowers was on my to do list by taking off the mower decks and rigging them up for the kids to play with while visiting us but we have only been living here 

a little over 20 years and I just haven't had time..! Now I'm getting rid of things so I won't have so much weed eating  getting in and under and around all that crap.

You reach a certain age where you don't take the shi* any more.  You'll get there, Gunny.

Bosses brother runs another shop across town.  They call for alignments.  I happened to answer the phone one day(very rare).  He asks who is this, Jeff,  No, Donny, No.  I informed him that was two strikes.  He says, Oh its Junior.  NOPE, strike three your out!   And hung up!

 

Took him ten minutes to quit laughing enough he could call back.

Gerald, 

I quit putting up with it at least 40 years ago. ;)

If I don't recognize a phone number...I don't answer those calls! :DevilLaughing:

I've gone way past you guys. Stopped with the one finger salute and went to just slapping them. That still didn't work, was hurting my hand. Now I just shake my head and walk away...

Like Dragon, I guess that I must've been practicing social distancing for a long time.  But, I do feel sympathy for those poor guys manning customer assistance phones.

Do you mean that you can recognize a phone number? If caller does not show it forget it , I will not remember.

My phone allows me to put a name with a phone number.

If it doesn't show a name they don't get an answer. Same applies to business numbers.

If I don't have the number in the phone it's nobody I've been in contact with, so no answer.

I set my phone ring to a funeral dirge when my ex tries to call.
