Mandy and I moved the gun cabinet I redid into the bedroom today.

Her great grandfather built it. You can tell it was awhile ago as my scoped rifles don't fit perfectly. Also my wingmaster's barrel is a tad long and takes some finagling to get it in.

Crawled around underneath the front end of the Astrovan to grease all the zerk fittings. Had to lift the sides one by one to get enough clearance to get over the front tires for the top ball joints. Only one fitting I couldn't reach. Next time it's in the auto shop I'll have them zap that one.
Although one of the passenger sway bars squirted out orange liquid when I pumped in the grease. Right underneath where all the coolant had been leaking out during the summer. That or rust. Either way it ain't good. :-\

Went to the Motorcycle Club Christmas party. Sam met Santa. Last time he saw santa he was 3 months old.

Then we came home and put the lights up out side. I really hate hanging lights. When we were done Mandy stood back and smiled. That's about the only reason I do it.

Happy wife, happy life.....

Transmission job at work. Sometimes you wonder whatakes people put money  in to a pile of scrap.

Got the final coat of primer on the pedal tractor tonight.

Cold weather is not helping, thin coats, will speed the drying so you can build the paint up. Will take a bit more time, less sag.

Looking good santa's helper is doing great.... I must ask, are you going to do any detail on the motor, that would be tits...

Yep I have a new seat, and the decal set on its way. I'm also going to get at least one new tire.

As awesome as a detailed engine would be .... I'm not that great with fine details. Plus on the real tractor and when the pedal tractor was new the engines are all JD green.
