This thread must end with pics.

Nothing left but installing the wheels, changing a few nuts/bolts and a bit of touch-up paint.



I'm letting the paint cure until Saturday, but I will be making a test run starting Saturday morning.

Now you need some big ole casters on the bottom so you can lug that thing around.

It has two wheels (like a big-arsed wheelbarrow). I am just letting the paint dry on the axles before putting the wheels back on.

Even with the wheels, it is a chore to move the damned thing. Considering pouring a pad. If I do that, I will probably run water and electricity to it, too.

Not so much. I grew up on a ranch, so I can do everything myself from forming the pad and tying the rebar (poured lots of concrete and tied lots of rebar in my youth) to running the pipe and wiring the electricity (plumbed lots of troughs and wired lots of barns, too). Don't need hot water.

The only real cost would be materials.

Hah I didn't even notice to money in the pic. I was going for more of smiling and enjoying how a project just grows and grows. We've all been there.

There was a time when we all questioned Hanks true Agginess and credentials, guess we can put that to rest now
