Great idea for next "bench and wrench" session.  We may not have had a "boogie nights" Dirk Digler limited edition disco ball hanging from ceiling but we had this old gas tank rigged to a deer processing "hanger" dangling from a chain hoist! 




 
Yep Yep Yep
Us rednecks can always find a solution  to a problem that would have stopped others .
The Deer hanger added true class to our work sesion /  
I should invite everyone back during deer season .
Then we could butcher  a deer and throw some backstraps on the charcoal grille while wrenching

Morning after  shot 
Polebarn is at rest aftger a whirlwind  2 days 
 
Dirk, er I mean Dave, thanks for the great pics.  Looks like a real nice workshop but where's the mirrored disco ball?  I'm not seeing it hanging anywhere.    Boogie Nights!.......

Mike
You know how Dave keeps mentioning the underground "workshop" I reckon that's where the crushed velvet and Babycham are hanging out

I thoroughly enjoyed sweating (with the oldies) in Dirk's Dave's beautiful pole barn, and just hope for cooler temps next time around.

Well.... My Harley was packed for camping and CLICK CLICK  the battery was dead!     (insert Harley joke)      (charging issue to fix now)
I took it as an omen and called the wife, as she was headed out with the camper
I was pissed so I ran to the end of the property and jumped in with the family, about 20 miles down the road I realized most my gear was loaded on the bike.
I got all new clothes for the weekend, on our way through Fremont. I had a great time camping, but wish I made it out to the zuki fest
I missed the whole thing  
Awesome story and work folks! also thanks to Jim for the care package.

Maybe you could rename the event for the next one "50 shades of grey"
