Progress Made

It's been insanely cold here lately, and even though David has a heater for the garage, we've been laying low inside recently. It's also helped that with the cold the sap isn't flowing again so that means we still have time to complete the evaporator. We're definitely in the home stretch, just having to finish welding the trays, attach the faucets (3) and line the inside of the tank with brick before we have the bare minimum done to at least start if we run out of time. We're still hoping to add tires and some way to move this beast when need be.

Door cut and hinged. Small adjustments to get the door to shut flush
