did a little work today afterall!







i felt the truck calling me today after i decided to take today off and i guess i just broke down, went down stairs and cut the top across the top. this step was necessary to allow the upper front pillars to realign with the lower posts. pretty straight forward, i put my tape down where i wanted to cut, put the top on my saw horses, ran a couple of bungees from front to back on both sides to keep the halves from falling on the ground after the two halves were separated. that's all i did today. tip of the day: use 1/32" cut-off wheels instead of 1/16". 1/16" wheels take a lot longer to make the same cut if you were using 1/32" wheels. the 1/32" do not last as long, but it's worth it. also, the 1/32" does not get the metal as hot as the 1/16" wheels. just an fyi. i will cut the upper door window frames this week sometime. that's it for today! gonna go workout, do my daily walk, then watch, "the next food network star" on food network. it's the finale tonite. later, mike in k.c.
