TOAK, The Thread of All Knowledge part XIV.
Thank God you had the plans right side up. Congratulations. You've shared with us what appears to be a very handsome job. A toast to whatever concrete guys toast to when they're after the Perfect Pour.

Engineers set my grades. All I have to do is measure over, set up my laser and shoot the grade they've given me, measure, mark and off we go.

Sorry, I just noticed that I did not include the pic. I was preoccupied with my meal.
Good evening knife fans, rack fans, mountain fans and all others. Work has been steady this week.
Here are a few knives from my collection, The Randall I gave my Dad back in the early 90's. I got it back when he passed away in 2006. The top left was a custom made knife by my BIL's club brother out in Oklahoma. They took me to a gathering when I was visiting and this guy had several on display that were for sale. I expressed an interest in this knife and I asked if he would inscribe his club name on it if I bought it and he agreed. Well we were partying pretty hard, got sidetracked and we left without sealing the deal. A couple days later it was my birthday and my sister and BIL got a cake and we cooked out. I was leaving the next morning. Unknown to me they had overheard the conversation and got the knife for me. Yes, the guy that made it inscribed "Hench" on it. Hench is gone now but his work still remains. The Buck I started carrying in the 70's. At the time they were the quintessential biker knife. I have several of those now including a factory auto Buck but none are more dear to me that the first one.

That's kind of what Phoenix was like, spring crop, fall crop, okra in between. Okra thrives in 100+, but you have to water it frequently.
Then we'll toast to you never misplacing your readers.
Well for once I got away cheap , my service four wheel drive message on my truck is out & the 4wheel is working again. The OEM part was $479.00 dollars but Amazon had them starting @ 80.00 , Napa wanted $ 239.00 . I decided to go the cheap route and wala everything is working again. It only took a half hour to install.
