Wedding gift (NOT a tractor)

This is another fill-in video that I just posted to YouTube.  Still waiting to do more small tractor videos so this one is placed for variety sake and I hope that you like it.  I made this "anniversary" cabinet for my youngest son and his new wife when they got married. This is actually second generation (2G :)) for this type of locking system. My first project was for my oldest son and his wife a few years before. The first cabinet didn't have the pin locking system (that's the one that locks the drawers when the lock rod cover is open) so it didn't take my son long to figure a way to get into the cabinet.  You can see other, non tractor videos on my YouTube channel if you click here NLINVENTOR

The Snow Blizzard this morning

OK, we had the blizzard as expected but not as much snow as most thought.  High winds though as you can see in part of the video. The wind pretty well blew most of the snow out of the parking and driveway areas so didn't justify getting the tractor out to clear it up - besides we are going to have temperatures above freezing for the next two days. In the video you see views from the regular camcorder but there are shots taken of the video displayed on my security camera monitor as well. The weather station is a Davis model Vantage Pro2, it's been working great but when we get freezing rain the anemometer cups after freeze up. The security camera is an Axis Q6035E.  Hope you like it and as I said in the last video comment it looks like there will be more than just small tractors on this blog at least until I get some fresh tractor videos done up.

Not just tractors :)

Thought I'd throw in a little humor into my blog this time.  Here's one to break up the tractor videos.  We are getting a snow blizzard tonight so if things go good I will have some footage to post tomorrow or next day.  Hope you like this bird video.
