Quit breaking your back in the driveway! If you already have an offroad truck with a winch and some skills with a welder you can make your own plow! Here is a write up on how I built a snow plow for the front of my offroad truck using mostly […]
Today we are building a steel beehive stand for Langstroth style hives with adjustable height legs and large foot pads so it doesn’t sink into the ground. Also included is a bonus at the end of how to build a frame holder that can be moved from side to side.
Today we cap the giant hole we just made from cutting off the rocker panels and reinforce the rock sliders. Then we reattach the fenders using some race car parts.
Time to remove PJ’s rusty rocker panels and build some rock sliders from scratch. Rock sliders are great for protecting your doors offroad and providing a pivot point around trees and rocks.
Finally, the last part of the front bumper build for PJ. Today we tie it all together by adding reinforced tubes to finish out the sides of the bumper. Be sure to check the completed pics at the end!

It is tough when you have a mower that still runs good but is starting to rust out. This mower was still working fine, but the deck had a couple of large holes in the front due to rust. Read more to see how we got it fixed and back […]
The Frostbite run at Kansas Rocks Recreational Park has been going on for what seems like forever. Not sure when it started but I have shirts from ’07, ’08, and ’09 (that I shamelessly still wear). Life has kept me busy in the meantime and this is the first time […]
