And kids!
Last week ALL the kids loaded up on the p1k for a ride around property. There's a pond in the larger pasture that's usually dry. It sorta reminded me of Bristol track so we made a few laps around it. Banking is so steep the rig practically steers itself lol. We all had a blast

Got 20 tons of gravel coming for parking area between 2 shop pads. Shop should be erected within the week. Picked up an 8k generator to get me by until wiring is done. This crap gets expensive fast!

You're thinking of a shopsmith and no. It's an Emco maximat super 11. Austrian made and awesome reviews online. Has mill attachment that i really didn't need but I'll take it. I'll be able to make bung 100% in-house now
