Like most small midwestern towns we have a "festival" of sorts, this weekend is our "Watermelon Days". I wanted to be more a part this year so I outfitted my new wood hauler (2106 F150) with a platform and put a few saws on display for the parade.

I thought I'd be clever and get some magnetic signs made but not clever enough to consider Ford went to all aluminum bodies in 2105...we found a solution to that issue and they will still work on my 2010 for the longer trips.

I also coordinated with my local tree works friend and put a nice large ash stem in the space outside my back door for some additional saw display.

I'll get some better photos some day when I have it fully loaded and the lighting is more favorable.

I've been working on getting things put away in the shop so I can finish getting it set up the way I want it. I still have to add a steel work bench and bring over my chain grinders and bar rail dresser to be able to do all the work over here. I also have too many projects on hand at the moment and need to get a few cleaned up and moved into the display so I can finish arranging the workshop.

Any of these in the museum? Not sure if this came from a recent estate sale I visited last week but seems likely as it was just posted locally. Maybe the guy selling is on here but seems super pricey.

The c's list ad was removed, I'm assuming it sold and if so I guess it wasn't super pricey.
 
Chris Theirof AKA The Duke came for a visit this week and to put together a video tour of the museum. I didn't take many photos during Chris' visit, and only found one where we both had our eyes open...(mostly).

Chris brought gifts.

I have moved them into the display.

Just prior to Chris's visit I was sorting through clutches and drums, getting them put away in the new building where they belong (just the stuff on top of the benches, not the totes...).

Due to the large number of items on hand, I am listing most everything in a spread sheet with a location. Unfortunately some the the locations are rather general, like a four tier shelving using with all the PM6 parts, but at least I know where to start the search.

I have also learned along the way that some of the part numbers attached to items are not correct so I have some items with two or three part numbers, and in other cases two or three very different items with the same part number.
