Drank some beer and worked on a template for TD limbs.

Then had some more beers and figured I better stop working on the template before it gets all wonky.

So now I’m just drinking beers.

When you get old a feeble you have to improvise. My camper battery was shot, in most cases you don't need one as I am always hooked up to power from my truck or at the campground.

It still bugged me that it was so weak so I decided to change it out. Now, with bad body parts I can no longer pick up a heavy battery up so I had to improvise a way to get it out of its awkward compartment.

I rigged up my deer dragamatic 2000 (my deer mover invention) to loop the mule tape over a gas line in the compartment, hooked to the battery and pulled it out of the battery box with my cordless drill. Next I put a ramp under the battery and slid it out of the compartment on the ramp.

I used a hand truck and 4 wheeler ramp to get it into the bed of my truck.

I reversed the procedure and put the new battery back in the compartment. I never picked up the battery during this swap out.

Worked on my form for TD limbs. Still gotta get dowels cut and installed for bands. This is my first go round with a TD.
I’m converting my one piece 58” D/R into a 62” three piece with a 14” riser. Fingers crossed, hopefully everything works out.  :pray:
