what kinda side job?

no Sams Club close.... nearest one is ~33 miles away

 

Thats a good job to have. Where I work we build outboard motors. I set up all the tooling for the CNC and sharpen the cutters that cut gears. A few years ago I got to play around with Master Cam. lot of fun. Wish I could still do it

 

May not be the kind of side job you are thinking of LOL :}

It's a fluid pump impeller.

Here's another one with a splitter between the main blades.

Yeah,... no

There's a +0.005/-0.000 tolerance on the hole, it's drilled at an angle relative to bore of the part and it's made of 17-4 Stainless.

Oh ok. No drill then.
Torch ??? Lol

 

Won't fit inside the part, the bore is 0.625 with a tight tolerance as well, can't risk any dingle berry marks on the part.

 

Hello all, heading into a meeting with BSA counsel i am on the training committee. Not thrilled, I might stop, I have had 14 years of scouts, I will give it a bit more.

 

Actually....

When your out to sea and the nearest Land Bears are 1 mile straight down not going to find a bearing oven big enough to heat an impeller to get it on the pump shaft. Enter torch and CO2 bottle. Heat the impeller with the torch keeping it moving and hit the shaft with CO2 to freeze it. One man stands by to wipe the frost off the shaft as fast as he can and 2-3 others take the hot ass impeller and slap it on aligning the keyhole on the way in. Then big ass ranger bob is standing by with a sledge to help just in case with blocks of wood ready to go in between the impeller and head of the 20 pound sledge. That is some pretty hi tech shit right there I'm telling you. Timing is everything. And if you don't get it right the first time there usually isn't a second time.

 

Just bustin ya..
I use to do motor machine work.
Blueprint, rods, align bore that stuff.

 

The kids playing in the sprinkler.

 

Cool .. yeah I meant the pun , I love the fences in AZ and NV would kill to be able afford a block wall fence it would out last me and not much up keep. But here that would be a 10k fence :{ I do hope you stocked up on pop tarts and eggos lol or are you opening a diner :}

Thank you everyone for the comments, thoughts and prayers. You all are great folks!

 

HAHA. The first thing that ran through my mind,"Thats an Arizona yard". Then I looked and saw you'd posted it.
Yep, I had that view before.

 

Well, I have a confession.
Its been 16 years since I had a heeler dog pup. I forgot how chaotic heelers can be.

 

These kids actually eat fruits and vegetables and meat! So weird! But we do have all the fun stuff for them too. We haven't had little kids in the house in a long time. They are pretty good kids. The dogs are mothering them well. Each dog picked out their own kid...pits are so funny.

 

Hell on wheels! But if you have the room they do great.

 

This is good then they eat right mine did , was odd when they had sleep overs I am making pan cakes or eggs and I am getting asked for pop tarts or some ceral or other hell I was making Belgian waffles and got asked "Don't you have blueberry ego's" ??? Sigh lol
