So today was the install day for the new winch post. After 55ea 90lbs bags of concrete, 6 members of Mud Puppies and me & Daryl ( LJ Dude ) And Jammal running the back hoe, we began.

Should take about 4 days for the cement to fully cure, post should be ready to use next Saturday.
 
Here's a few more pics from the day

Hopefully no one will try and use the post until next week to give the concrete a chance to set

I just wanted to thank Earl from the Mud puppies for working with ODF to get this project going. Also a big thanks to Douglas Seal (Pistons Wild) for getting the I-beam and to Kenny Fiorito (Pistons Wild/NAXJA) for doing all of the fab work. This project turned out to be a true group effort!


 
Awesome work! This is one spot that needed a winch post! I appreciate the donated time and effort into it!

Nicely done, guys! It'll be very convenient to have up there.

For those who don't know Kenny also built the winch post on Can Opener as well. He's slowly building his legacy at TSF.

Kenny and LJ dude must both originate from Sore4x4 ?? I remember when the Can opener Winch post was built a couple years back(??)
