You can overcomplicate it.
I managed to break the gambrel on the hole saw, the largest spade bit I have is 1 inch but need at least 1.24", all three drill batteries weren’t charged, found my 120v drill but couldn’t find the chuck key, found chuck key, high torque drill nearly broke a finger when it caught and torqued out of my hand- turns out that second handle is important, spade bit drilled all but the last 3 and was flattened out
Irrigation plumbing dry-fitted. I know I’ll be fighting gravity and have no idea what kind of pressure I’ll be dealing with from the might HF pump * but 400 gph through 3/4" pipe... Something something math. I’ll be putting ball valves in the 2nd tier boxes after the H pipes to balance gravity and such.
In other news I’m installing the new towing mirrors in the 250 since the old ones the plastic was cracked and *someone* cracked the blindspot mirror.
The driver side lock actuator went in and wow was that more tedious than expected. Here’s a 3 inch wide hallway with 9 different things going 11 different directions that only fit in 1 functional orientation. But it works so I’m happy.

Someone’s been a busy bee, well done!
You can likely grind in a new cutting edge on that spade bit, if you have access to a grinder.

I didn’t even think about that! I do have a grinder. Weird I use it for my lawnmower blades but didn’t think to re-h one a spade bit.
And speaking of busy bee be on the lookout for the pickle barrel compost tumblers I have in the works.

Damn, I was hoping this was going to be HFV’s backyard mtb park by the picture.
