Ha! That's spot on. Early trust forces you to keep your skills sharp, or at least it should. In my case, I trusted someone early and totally let my own know-how slide. Now I'm stuck playing catch-up and feeling like a complete beginner. It's a tough lesson that trust doesn't mean you can stop learning yourself. So I guess the joke's on me for thinking I could take it easy.

Seriously, you didn't know a plain disc would wreck the weld?

How much leveling do you think you'll need down the road? I used gravel for mine because it's easy to adjust if the ground moves again. Concrete is permanent, but that's not always a good thing on soft soil.

Always thought that was silly but it actually works...

Classic. Saving time by wasting it online.
