Whatcha Find Wednesday

This week has been an exciting week. Our new chicks have arrived, we moved the older chicks to the coop, and people are cleaning out house, putting their discarded items out for the trash. Oh what fun nice weather brings out.

This week Lenny has been busy piecing together a working lawn mower. He was able to take 2 nonfunctional lawn mowers and make one good working one. One had motor issues and the other had non-motor issues. He pulled both motors and swapped them out. The change out went perfectly and we went ahead and gave the running lawnmower to our good friends at Simple Prepping since theirs pooped out on them last summer. I love it when things come together perfectly. It's also fulfilling to be able to help out a friend with a need because you never know when you will need a helping hand down the road. Here are a few pictures from the project.

So in today's line up we more or less have junk that we are helping a neighbor rehab.

First we have a small shelf and the second we have and end table/magazine rack.

You can see how the shelves have rotted out and the table top is completely missing

To start on this project Lenny went ahead and cut out a new table top. Because he just got this today he hasn't gotten very far but this should be and easy fix up that our neighbor will be able to enjoy once again.
