  • Homemade Log Winch to the rescue. Today we finish mixing and pouring the concrete for the creek rock piers for our timber bridge. Then I take the Husqvarna 55 gas powered saw out into the woods and cut down a couple dead trees. End up milling one of the trees down, then use the homemade log arch to pull it down to the timber bridge project. Today was another day of great progress. Next step will be to get all the mess cleaned up, tuck point the creek rock with mortar, and the borrow my friends band saw to mill up the rest of the structure. Hope you enjoyed the video!

    Thanks, what you do remined me of our NWest British blacksmiths shop that started in 1890. I can see I am 2y late but the fun you have is great, "just get it done attitude.
    I learnt to weld when I was 10y I built a pulse jet engine when I was 17y Now old age holds me back a bit so I now service very old sewing machines {my very old machines are from around 1880} They still work and we use them to make things to give away.

    Cap’n thanx for accommodating my schedule. Today is a much less hectic day. We’ve already had almost 2” of rain and the sun isn’t up yet! Delaying this gave me the extra time I needed to get my chores done B4 sitting down to immerse my self in your latest antics!
    Now about the actual video presentation.., it had everything I’ve come to enjoy about your channel: sweat, problem encounters, problem solving, the 755, the log winch, the log arch, broken cameras, drone fly over, cameos by the girls and doggo. All combine to provide progress and pure viewing pleasure at the end.
    Considering that you went the extra mile and broke your hammer in this one, I’d say you reached video perfection… except for one snuggling little fact… Cap’n, I think it needs more cowbell!

      Thanks to surveying merit badge... It got me through High School trigonometry and a bunch of the algebra. And then there was the day that I was the presumed "unskilled" a member of the survey party which consisted of the engineer and me. I set up the theodolite and verified it as a good instrument, located an official USGS benchmark within three traverse points of the work limits.

      I agree. Once he told me what it was, I forgot about it. If it had been a crack it would have been really noticeable, but a scuff that could have been a finger smuge in the corner was no issue. Now if it had been in the center it would have been distracting but it wasn't.
