Wood Stove

Image
I rebuilt a wood stove I had in storage. The only textual items on the stove is "Made in West Germany". After puzzling about how to repair the broken leg (everything from welding with tungston rod to fabricating a splice), I found a similar replacement foot. It was similar, so I ended up buying two in order to make it look and set right. It was a fun "little" project. It cost me about $150 in materials and probably took me about 8 hours. I am looking forward to getting it fired up at some point. Since it is going back into storage I am wrapping it up with as much rust inhibitor as I can. I bought some VCI paper for the effort.

Outdoor Seating

We really enjoy our outside sitting areas at the house in Duluth GA, especially this time of year. The deck, The gazebo, The dock, The front porch, The picnic bench.

The "you cant put a driveway there" Driveway

My new driveway on the farm is going in. That will make three driveways/access points. It was an impossible place to put it supposedly because of the terrain and drainage. It's done now.
