Quiet Saturday, which almost happens.
Wife went to an auction with our youngest, and the oldest was away at some training for work. That only left me and my 12 year old at home and he was preoccupied with some homework. Only dad in the garage.......PERFECT!!
Picked up some steel and went to work.
The beginning of a column support.....
20 minutes later
I did not think the dowel rod was going to hold up long term....so it was replaced with some 3/4" rolled steel bar.
Pinned with roll pins and started welding.
Motor back out and the modified motor mount was final welded, as well as the shock mounts.
After all that.........it got a coat of paint.....
