Well brought this home for the wife yesterday she wanted a wheeler so here we go lol!

 

Man, you sure got a lot of projects going on.

 

Yea the one ton project is a 50/50 on everything with my dad so that's slow going and I mean like snail speed. But who could pass up a taco for 500 bones?!? And if it gets Andrea wheeling its well worth it! And it will progress alot faster basically because it will all be a few hundo here and there where the 1-ton is like 1k here 1500 here lol.

 

well this came last friday! happy birthday to me!

 

That's awesome.

 

I just need a shop now

 

But you ever need to use it and your more then welcome since I'm going to be living alot closet now. Looking at a place in Beaverton friday

 

Cool, but me and the wife are moving to Longview at the end of this month, still closer. With the new kid, we want her to stay home and I can't afford the house on my own and Longview is a lot cheaper.

 

Well darn what's the adress to your place do they already have renters?

 

Not rented yet as far as I know, it is 4275 SW 182nd, If you want it, we could let the landlord know before they put up the sign, it will probably go fast being next to the park with this nice weather lately.

 

Yea were going to look at some places Friday ill let you know how it goes.

I see your bed is up on Craigslist, you gonna tube it now? Have you been able to use that bender yet?

 

Have all the tube in the garage have had it for a few months now lol. And I still haven't purchased a die for the bender but thinking I may do that this week. I did have a bender I could borrow but just hasn't been working out as planned.
