I made an epoxy coffee table for my wife For Christmas. Embedded the flowers from her wedding bouquet in the centre. Damn epoxy sure isnt cheap. Its a full 2.5 inches thick and took 72 hours to cure for each epoxy pour, which required 2 pours. Im still learning how to perfect this whole epoxy thing but Im getting there.

We had a "skiff" of snow since Friday AM. Snowed non stop from Friday till 2 AM this morning. The one pic has 7 feet of snow piled on my septic bed, the other is the snow hanging off my roof, about 3', waiting to fall...
Merry Christmas... DON'T wish for a White Christmas...LOL
When I sent my frame out for acid dip and epoxy enamel I used a heavy hammer and some alphabetic punches so that i could identify the frame when it came back. The punch characters where placed in two different locations easily found if the vehicle ever was stolen.
Now I'm ready for those snowfalls that are too light to take the blower out but too much snow for those little department store pushers that move so little. I know I won't push it when the tub gets loaded with that heavy wet snow but those snowfalls aren't that common here. And if it doesn't work, if my design and build is a total fail, at least I had fun in the garage part of yesterday and today and all I'm out is some scrap metal and a little bit of mig welder wire/gas. It detaches from the dolly in about 30 seconds if I need the dolly, which wasn't modified at all.
I made lots of engines noises when I rode my bike as a kid, I'm sure I can still do it! Good suggestion, I hadn't thought of that. My neighbour will love it if I do that, he's a fun character!
I'll have to get some silicone spray, great idea! Likely better than wiping it down with motor oil...!
