Sod removal sled.

OK, today I mounted the landing gear and painted it, pretty optimistic huh? Tomorrow, I will add some weight in the form of concrete blocks and plywood for the blocks to sit on. I have thought about lining the skids with the same material that they install on airboats to decrease drag, but I will try it without it at first. Here are some pictures of the finished rig and tomorrow or the next day, I will make a video of either the failure or success of this endeavor. I still had trouble with my welder, come to find out that I was using .030 wire and the Tweeco gun uses minimum of .035 wire and the channel that the wire runs in was worn out, so I replaced that and ran .035 and what a difference. It now welds as it should. Bob.
