    Good morning. Not too much going on here. Watching the Moto GP races. May get some rain, may not? Who knows? I don’t see a dark cloud in the sky at the moment. The clocks are changed.

    woke up this morning, on my Sunday sleep in and was super impressed that I slept until 0745. Wow, felt good, had a shower and then realized that day light savings had kicked in and I didnt get the extra hour I was so happy about...
    Oh, the humanity

    I could actually not give a rats ass what time is on the clock. Body clocks will normally adjust to the sun and moon. No matter what time it is, the amount of daylight is what dictates my day depending on the where the earth is in relation to it's orbit of the sun. I'd do much better with a sundial.

    You know, you could have got a really great night sleep just by pointing all scammers to this thread. This crew will have a great time roasting their asses into submission. By the time we're through they'll be confessing all kinds of sins and they'll never come back.

    afternoon peoples.

    Snowing like hell.
    Going to be an interesting time later on this evening.
    Suppose to switch to rain and if they are plowing I see lots of flooded streets.

    So since Sue was talking about valves and stuff I pulled out my 3/8 ball valve and adapters
    And installed it after like two years this morning on my compressor.
    Hooked up the line.
    :yes:.
    Did what it’s suppose to do.
    Then
    :facepalm:
    Dam...

    Noticed something very interesting.
    With the longer setup and extra weight of the valve etc, I noticed the line was
    Visibly vibrating.
    So that sets up a secondary Osculation by the manifold.
    That will equal a failure on a very cheap aluminum part.
    Mmmmmmm not good.
    Soooooooo
    Went and got a 1/4 inch ball valve and shortened total length by 2 inches
    With 1/3 less weight.

    So with me buying adapters for the larger ball valve I had and having it not like it should be
    And with buying a ball valve I ended up saving nothing..
    Oh well.
    At least I still have a free ball valve for another project..lol

    I figure you and @Cypherian would make pretty short work and give the rest of us a bit of entertainment.
