Well, it’s been a while since my last Becky Sue update. And that’s not for a lack of progress. I’ve pretty much maintained my goal of welding at least five sections of re-bar a day throughout this whole freakin’ summer. It’s just that after a day of welding, honing my awesome physique, and attending to Mrs. Groovy’s never-ending honey-do list, I have absolutely no desire to turn on my laptop.
But yesterday I gave the finger to the productivity gods and proclaimed a day of sloth. And I gloriously fulfilled that proclamation. I basically did nothing all day but veg out on the couch and watch inane YouTube videos. Oh, and I wrote this lame-ass Becky Sue update. Here’s what’s been done since July 10th—the date of my last update:
- I’ve completed Becky Sue’s left front leg. All I got to do with the left front leg now is weld it to its footing and then bolt that footing to the cart.
- I’ve completed Becky Sue’s trunk, on both the left side and the right side.
- Finally, I’ve completed Becky Sue’s left horn.
All told, Becky Sue is currently comprised of about 500 linear feet of re-bar. I figure I’ll need another 100 linear feet of re-bar to complete the scaffolding. Here are some pictures of my progress:
Okay, groovy freedomist, that’s all I got. Let me know what you think of Becky Sue when you get a chance. Peace.
It’s looking good! That is a ton of patience!
I can’t wait to see the finished product!

You’ve made a lot of progress and Becky Sue is looking great.
Coincidentally, Buffalo have been in the news lately. It seems humans are forgetting that these are wild animals and need to be admired from respectful distances. And don’t get close to their babies!
Becky Sue is coming along nicely! Thanks for the update since I was wondering how she was doing the other day.

Looks great!!!
Becky Sue is looking amazing!
I’m most impressed with your creativity and new found welding skills. Out of curiosity, how did you create her left horn?
