The blue welders hat is super sexy.

Goes well with the reading glasses...

You know it is, Gary. Smooth to the groove like sandwich bread.

Could spray foam in the pipe have sealed it off?. It looks like the iron ridge cap is sealed anyway. Great job on the ground array, looks good.

Yep. I think I just wanted to use the welder. That's really the only explanation.

could have used liquid flashing made for doing sealing on glass to metal. 10 minutes and you would have been done. fill the ends with expanding foam.. then once closed up.. apply the liquid flash.. it would still be there 100 years from now.
