    It's a little known prerequisite that to be in this forum you have to have many aches and pains. Yours are just a little fresher.

    Nope you are not a stinker you sir are a genius I wish I knew that trick a long time ago . :} I do remember when the K cars were the military staff cars lol ours were snow topped Navy blue bottom white top. I did laugh that the SPs had them not real sure they could catch a kid on a skate board lol . I still chuckle about the time me and a buddy came through the gate on a July 4th weekend long ago . They had set up the standard cone weave but had used a k car as the guide for width. Problem is my buddy Jeff drove a 79 Silverado 6 inch lift , 36 inch gateway gumbo mudders and with a 454 worked over in it lol. Yeah um he did the weave but took every cone down lol. Yeah we had to get checked out and were not drunk but the SPs were pissed. I still miss him :{

    Evening people of the corn.. or ketchup..

    Big load off my mind.
    Dr #2 said don’t come back unless things change. Awsome and sad at the same time.
    But at least my important numbers are perfect.
    So having a burst of energy I began my project.

    Had a little issue to figure out. Anything I hate is kicking a baseboard while working on a bench. In order to avoid that I was going to have to shorten the bench by 6 inches. That would effect everything I’m trying to do.
    So I figured out that by canting the bench in even with my legs on the bench and pinning the extension to the bench I’ll accomplish both

    00234CDA-718C-465F-B4B5-E626B4EC4C5C.jpg

    So all I need to do now is get my folding legs made, router the edge, and then poly the top. If I have enough left over I may put another coat on the old bench

    Need to get this done. May have another motor to overhaul..

    Just about 20 min ago I had the Cal Fire #944 747 super tanker fly over my place on its way towards the massive 4700acre fire in Idyllwild and was an,impressive sight

    I even got to watch it live on the Evening news as it made a Phoschek drop over the fire . Seeing this big Bird flying at under 500ft off the deck with flaps down was awesome to watch !!

    This Modified 747 was once a JAL aircraft and now drops 23k gallons of Phoschek a mile long

    Here's a vid of out in action on some older incidents
