      Sorry Rueben! Quit the railroad in April after 4 years.

      Started working with my Pops, he bought a 10,000 sqft building in SE Portland with 2 empty lots of the same size… long story short we are going to set up a food cart pod of 23 carts on the NE empty lot and when we get cash flow from that we are going to develop the existing building. By going up 2 additional floors.

      The building has some cool history and the last inhabitants were Portland Engine Rebuilders... so it’s pretty much covered in grease, makes me feel at home lol..

      Here’s a couple snaps from today.

      888s paired with Ship John Townes shirt, made from black broken twill from the cone mills


      The roping at the hem is amazing!

      Working on a couple rebar cages for the footing of one of the food cart entry gates

          Refurbing massive industrial spaces more than makes up for the lack of locomotive action. This sounds and looks like an amazing project.

                              @Brock Clearly you don’t mess around! You guys know what you’re doing! tying rebar is a good skill to have. That’s a sweet CAT as well. Mini excavators are fun to operate. Rubber tracks don’t mess up
                              The pavement and it’s much harder to accidentally put a hole in the side of a building…. in theory.  I think  😉

                                    Haha!! I feel like we’re running around like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off on this project so far, but we’re gonna get er done!
                                    Tying rebar sucks! My fingers are sore! And that CAT is amazing! Looking forward to putting a lot of hours on it.

If you don’t, check him out! He’s a great dude and he has big dreams when it comes to making jeans.. @indigoashby

                                            Blacksmithing tonight! [emoji1008][emoji91]
                                            Started working on a soup ladle for the wife tonight. She’s been begging for one since I started smithing.

                                            My pops working on a rams head. It’s going to be a drop lock for the gate we’re building.
