Another of sons projects :
Another custom customer piece. A wood rack/hauler for a John Deere tractor/loader. We even painted it to match his tractor, no charge. :) Happy customer! He also previously had contracted and bought the rotisary chicken cooker/smoker/grill, that we made from an old household oil tank. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Koeckeritz-Iron-Steel/144713288935194" rel="nofollow - https://www.facebook.com/pages/Koeckeritz-Iron-Steel/144713288935194

This was that custom lime spearder we had ordered from a gent who saw it on youtube and asked us to build one for him. Of course we couldn't resist placing our name all over the Gnome's work!!!

Have to admit the future daughter in law did the welding on that hopper . She does most of the welding on the sons projects. When asked how she could help him in has start-up business - he told her to bad she didn't know welding . So two years in trade school and she now knows a lot about welding. Got to get her up to speed on TIG yet, then she claimed my Miller 304 as hers .. Hmm seems I lost another thing .. The lime spreader hopper you see there was made from the drop cuts from snowplow blades, the plow blanks he had rolled and bent as a 10' sheet and then he cuts down to whatever size snowplow is ordered.
