Yea rockpickerforever . Thinking like a hotdog. Man I can't wait to have that thing dipped in galvanize. It will shine. show off my rusty fire pits. I want to do street selling with it. Like rent a corner from a high traffic land owner say fall/spring when season is good for pits. Rusty?? Patina is what is what it says in the brochure.. and of course you will need to run gas into a firepit... Who but James wants the excitement of running gas into a fire anything?? Because I'm rich, I want your product to meet my ecpectations and I say so .. hehehehhehehe

I'll run a chain saw and weld all day in 100F. I WILL NOT serve customers plants in even less than that condition. The customers slap wear me out. Sounds like paradise. My plants are full tilt. For some reason fire pits at full tilt. Getting ready for a film shoot. Building trailer. Fixing broken stuff. Got got got got no time Prefer busy |

Cliff if you get that much foot traffic, you should get some James P fire pits to sell at your location.
He'd probably make ya a good deal on a dozen of 'em!

Huge traffic and can sell about anything this time of year But Its only a 5 acre place and it pretty much used by an acre and a half of greenhouses, huge parking lot,SHrub and tree growing and holding areas. a one acre lake and my big ole 1 ton dually with that sweet cummings. Long bed so it is about a quarter acre.. grin.. Had to stop importing pottery and chimmeneas from Mexico because of room. ( Will send pictures or post once I figure out how to and the time just isn't there right now.) James p sold one fire pit to one of my customers in Telluride. Sail on Capn. And may your skies always be red at night.

Few more hours today. Hangers for middle shelf. Another few hours and off to the galvanizer. Lots of time required to wire brush old steel and welds for better galvanization.   |

Patina is a hard concept for me to get around. Easier wiring a service box and doing it hot than one type of personality and we do get our share but since I am cheap, popular and hard nosed I don't have to tolerate anything. Had a real good weekend. Long and hot.. Lots of watering still to do. Sprinklers running at max. Old guy running at half speed. Don't want to spill the beer. grin.

bet you are ready for quiet time. Monday should be dead. What water supply do you have ? I got a Georgia State publication about well yield in different topographies. Photographs with graded well potential at ridges draws flat areas etc Now I have 4 creeks on this little 30 acres, and a 30 foot 'water fall' at the downstream side of the property. Creeks mean nothing, just surface water. like a bowl. well here, clay ave. 50 feet deep on top of solid granite. The more the clay is removed the more the granite rises and creates cracks making high yield water sources. My bowl had mass clay removed as it washed off the granite water fall over thousands of years. highest rating for high well output. the well driller hit these water bearing fractures about every 30 feet. He said it was 500-1000 GPM. More than I could use. He never seen so much water in 50 years of drilling. They put a 35 GPM high pressure in it. That well publication was super interesting. Data developed from about 400 wells. I inquired with the local town about selling water. Fine water. Too much red tape. They would rather treat polluted water go figure. |

Put a jack in(galvanized 2" X 8' tube) to raise floor of trailer above top of tires for side loading. Mounted axle hangers(on top). Time consuming lining everything up and making strong welds. Calculate 10% tongue weight. Hopefully finish middle shelf tomorrow and carry it to the galvanizer.  |
