Yeah man, the falling snow flakes have all been replaced by the blood sucking mosquitos up here.
Imagine my surprise when the wife ordered me a screen curtain for the garage car entrance !!
I look at your welded in patch and I cringe at all the grinder time I see there!
I like to weld a little, grind a little, then I learned to go over it all with some 60 or 80 grit on a high speed sander !!
but not too hard.... I sanded down a patch area to paper thiness by accident one day !!
Good to see you really digging in on it ,,,,, way to go !!
