Title: Hi, from Upstate NY.
Post by: mkell on March 24, 2020, 05:03:00 AM: Hello everyone,

My name is Stannis, I just turned 30, I have a giant mustache turning grey and just bought a 250 year old house. I enjoy building in most forms, but I love cabinets, home repair, and welding. Someday I hope to build a decent looking truck camper, but for now we settle on a few modifications to the back and a nice cap. I drive a 2000 K2500, work in a machine shop, and I'm trying to learn how to be the best man I can.

I found this site through my interest in truck camping and modifications. It just so happens many of my other interests are covered here as well. I garden with varying degrees of success, enjoy photography, trees, and adding unnecessary amber lights to my truck because I like the look. I just bought a Savage Arms Axis .308 and I'm very pleased. I don't have much land so have been exploring the federal/state land where shooting targets is allowed.

Excited to learn what you guys have to share. Attached some photos, my house, truck, rifle, deck and workshop.

Thanks for having me.

Stannis
