Lewis: That's what we're known for! The grapefruit and oranges are ripe for the pickin'! They are GOOD! For about 2 more months, then they'll get ready for blooming in April. I've lived here since 1980, didn't take me long to adjust to 70 degree weather at Xmas!We're #3 in cotton behind Texas & Calif. In fact, the City of Goodyear, Az got it's name from the tire company. At one time Goodyear owned a lot of the cotton fields around here, and that particular type was excellent in the "cording" for their bias-ply tires (obviously years ago). It's tough living here, but somebody's got to do it!

Design looks good. Not that i'm going to give away my age, but even for a temporary cart you must be a lot younger than me....(knees) squatting down to the welder controls!

Actually it's a sit-down-only affair. I sat in a chair beside it to check and I can push the buttons and twiddle the knob ok in that position. Worst case I'll re-locate it to the top surface.....I doubt I'll be doing any welding on it !
I was thinking this morning about a temporary table and will have to get some sheet of steel to plop across a couple of sawhorses or something - again - until I can actually get some skill and really weld something proper.
Hey Dave - I told my wife what the temps are in Phoenix and we might have to come visit you for say a few months
Bert in Hawaii will be the next stop after that and by then it should be warm enough to come back home....
