Looks great Gene!

Thanks Dave. It’s really becoming a hangout for friends and neighbors. Tonight we are having a spaghetti feed for eight and then playing cards afterwards. I entertain up there about five times a week. In the winter we were doing it down at the house. It’s common for me to come home and find people in my house making dinner and playing cards.

How wonderful. You sure have found a place in the world that embraces the old school life. Enjoy the spaghetti.

I now have four of the smaller 42” chests. I’ll have a one piece custom wood top made. The red craftsman are kitchen cabinets.

I'm envious. Great space for you and your friends.

The place is looking great, a true multi use facility. Congratulations.

Thanks. I picked up another propane tank today. It’s DOT rated at 420 pounds and ASME for 120 gallons. That means I can have it filled at home delivery or transported full.

The 250 gallon tank has to be ten 10 feet from the shop and that would put it in the middle of the driveway. I’ll put it about 30 feet out and not connect it to the shop. It’s a liquid bottom feeder so I can fill 20, 30, and 40 pound tanks from it. That means I’ll only pay about a dollar a gallon instead of five bucks. The 420 pounder can be put right up against the building.

I moved the 250 gallon tank out about 30 feet. It’s not connected to anything and will be used to fill DOT tanks.

Here is the 420 pound tank set in place. I need to trim the line so there is not so much sticking out.

It’s leaning slightly to the building. I did this because the slope will probably erode slightly and when it does it should be level.
