Glad you guys are able to get a little work done up there. We've had a solid week of rain here, standing water everywhere, leaky shop roof, etc. just not the time to do any work on a box. Not to mention running a generator and extension cords with all this water! :lol:

Sure would rather be sitting there in your nice shop Dean sharing a brew or two!

Thanks for the pics Dale,
Joe
