WAYWT - The Hard Labour Edition aka "Working in your workwear".

@Matty123:

yeah buddy! a modular retaining wall. thats hard work.

Not done it before but damn there's a lot of material in and out. I had to take out 3 metric tons of natural stone and earth by hand, and so far I've put in 2.5 metric tons of drainage gravel under and behind the wall and 1.5 metric tons of road grit in front to lock it off against the asphalt. Be good when it finished though [emoji28]

[neph93]

Good stuff @emceeQ @scooter

The thread is off to tidy start.

@Giles:

How about @Warner

As if there's anything else to wear for the workaday action round here… It's IH EVERYDAY in our world~

[TheTrooper]

Sorry, no Iron Heart but Samurais and RW. I do wear 634s at work though

[neph93]

@Warner  amazing abuse showing on those ducks.

@TheTrooper  great shot. What's the harness and tackle for?

[Warner]

@neph93 those Ducks are my favorite (next to the 25oz'ers). Slightly heavier weight than the others I have. Not sure which ones they are but I would love to get more @Giles if that extra heavy weight is still available.  ::)

[Dstauffer]

@Warner thats a sick leather jacket you got there! What brand is it?

[Warner]

@Dstauffer jacket is Langlitz. Model is Deaths Head Cascade, available in cow or goat. Google "Langlitz Cascade" for some great photos. The GOOD ART sterling snap caps don't hurt either…

[Giles]

@Warner Are they heavier than our normal ones:

[Warner]

@Giles yes. I have two distinct weights but only found the heavier ones in the brown. This going back a few years by now. I actually love both weights but usually grab the heavier ones for riding and moto trips instead of leathers these days. No trouble thought please… still have a goodly number of years left in these ones, but I think if I saw more of the heavy ones I'd grab a pair.

The bone colored ones BTW are amazing. I'm sure I'll have them all stained in no time... ::)

[Giles]

Just remembered what they are.

@Warner , those ducks look SPOT On!! perfect for the bike.

You've now got me thinking…...

[Dstauffer]

@Warner Thanks man, it looks phenomenal!

Anything Good Art doesn't hurt…Would love to see an IH/GOOD ART collaboration some day...Been looking for a beefy silver ring a la that IH-Ring below

Have you picked one up Dan?](https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=14396)

[Dstauffer]

@neph93 Been on the hunt for one in my size (9 or 10) like a mad man.

This one was a couple years before my time, but I have faith the Forum Gods will grant my request one day…

[neph93]

Did @Giles  know what sizes he could source? I have no clue about ring size but I'm ready to do the research if he can get one over from Japan.

[Dstauffer]

He was kind enough to check for me and they only had size 7 left

[neph93]

That sounds small [emoji1]

[spitfiredealer]

So here is a few snaps of the project we are doing at the moment.

going to be lovely when finished

and done in IH gear

[neph93]

@spitfiredealer great post. I take it you're enjoying the change of job? Every summer when I start building shit I think, "I could do this for a living".
