West bound!

Bazinga!


Just got finished with a kickass tour of a power plant. I cannot tell you guys how awesome that was.

This thread title was disappointing. True, a westward direction is being traveled, but I was expecting traveling OUT WEST. You know, to at least two more states, or the Rockies, even better, most of the way to the west coast. The Western US population of MV enthusiasts could use the whole "Gimpy" barn....

I was wondering what that monster was.

What was it originally, and how do you plan to be using it?!

 

[gimpyrobb]

Some kind of pipe cap, Crusher plans on using it as a welding table/mashing table.

How in the name of Sam Hill do you plan to manhandle that thing to wherever it has to go?!

 

[gimpyrobb]

Crusher's driveway is sloped, I'll just back halfway down and jam on the brakes. It will unload itself!

It's a 32", 150# class pipe blind flange.



With a custom lifting pad-eye.

What would you guess is the weight of that plate?

Does running it over with a bush hog make it "custom"?

 

[54reo]

Yes

It'll definitely make the bush hog blades custom!

 

[winfred]

maybe the gear box too if yer lucky

It'll definitely make the bush hog blades custom!

I ran it over about a hundred hours of mowing time ago. While I never bothered to look under the deck, I don't think it did anything real bad to it.
Although it sure didn't help anything

 

[gimpyrobb]

Well it turns out that poison ivy doesn't like me much at all(or me it). Next time out, its getting nuked!

We used the steel chunk to re-wind one of Crusher's winches today, worked real well. I think I should have grabbed one too...

With a little heatin and bendin that thing would make a Boss Snow Sled.
