Here's pics as promised. Can see a bin I stared for my for my compost pile with scrap plywood. Also can see chickens fuck up a lawn. But they are great mulchers.

100 shitake plugs getting seeded as well. Trying to amp up my supplied from home game. Figure if I have herbs, tomatoes, & lettuce we are pretty golden. Of course, squash, rhubarb, corn, green beans, apples, plums we get from the farm along with beef. Pork from a local pig farm. Makes me feel a bit more independent of our food supply. Doesn't hurt that Matt has me baking now. Some killer breads change your diet completely. Had to change up my storage Because of this

Spent the day stripping this turd. I'm beat.

A little more whitled in. All the specialty wood pieces installed to sculpt to the seat bottom, and pieces to support the inner edges of the side panels. Decided it should have drink holders like the other. THen ready for a second coat of paint. Thats where I'm at this morning.

Speaking of crossovers and such, here's where I'm at with the TMM's. Parts is parts, pieces parts. Dry layout... Assembled! And a close up. Baffle laid out... Test fit, yep it fits! Some feets in the works... Kinda modelling them after the Solstice towers. With black feet and baffle. Besides the cold, the only hold up has been bringing myself to commit to the front 3" port. Hope you guys enjoy.

Crappy pic, but my dog and a deer in the yard this afternoon, just chillin.

Where Im at this morning.

Hadn't picked it up yet. Did Sat night finally, at the farm now since my truck is still wounded. 2018 Polaris 1000 XP Sportsman base, but has all Premium options added and a lot other options. Bought it from a Polaris employee straight out of Roseau MN

And, it's alive! I literally spent HOURS figuring out why I had no tweeter on the right channel. Finally came to discover that one of my jumper wires were bad It was incredibly frustrating trying to track down the issue, and I dont handle frustration well. Curse words were said (and muttered, yelled and spewed)

Surprise visit from Jared ftw!

More fluffer photos! This time with the real camera

Not quite finished. But figured I post up some pics. Still debating on doing some pin-striping.

Also, got my official letter today. Orientation Monday, and officially to work Tuesday morning. J

VA called me this afternoon to offer me the position. I'll get the email to confirm Monday. Not the GS7 I wanted, but the GS6 slot. Still damn solid. J

I started on a second Mustang couch this week. Worked out the quirks I don't like about the first one. Got the seat a little more raked out for us taller peeps too. THe initial framework assembled... Seat and side panels installed! This one's getting a little something extra. Using these trim off of a 50's Ranchero bed top to cap the edge. Corner shot.

On a lighter note, speakers have made it in the house! Had to give the wife a couple days to acclimate to them, so haven't hooked them up yet. Being as she didn't even know I was building them until over half way through. I pretty much knew the only caveat would be that she could place plants on them. lol

The TMM's coming along! Baffles cut, shellacked and sanded... and some primer... and finally the black! Feet carved to shape! A drill jig to keep things even. Awe and black for the feetsies too. Punching holes for the terminal cups. And on to the acoustic treatment!

Grandkids are awesome!!

Things from the heart I love, material items not at all. Obviously a present could be both but societally it becomes an exercise in panick and compromise yielding pressure to give something that is material in place of something heartfelt. I have received gifts from people on here that are more personal and thoughtful than one could imagine. Those are awesome. So it isn't really I don't like gifts, but I don't like the idea that gifts are necessary on certain days. Out of the blue gifts that have meaning are always welcome and by far the best kind to give.

Speaking of projects. Neighbor and I went in on 2 non-running kiddo toys.

Happy Easter to all who celebrate the occasion.

Look what I caught!

Lucky you get to work. They are really sticking it to small businesses.

All those wipes and hand squirt shit are just the lowest form of antibacterial. Barely useful. Nothing for viruses at all. So many people are using them thinking it's keeping them safe from COVID19, it's not. At all. Proper handwashing, keeping a safe distance from others. Don't touch your face, ever. These are things that'll work. Remember, if you can smell their fart move apart.

I forgot to post pics of the acoustic treatment. More of yesterdays fun! I know you guys are picture whores. I put 2" foam on the back wall behind the upper driver that's pulling the midrange duty. The thick egg crate top and bottom for the standing waves. Then 1" everywhere else. The inside wrapped in 4 layers of some super thin polyfil. Will most likely add some more just loosely placed.
