Right?! He services all his gear and makes the bed...

 

well, mowing was an adventure. got into a wasp nest and blew a spindle on the Kubota that i had put new bearings in in the spring. Any one need me to work on you mowers just call. Dewaynes small engine repairLol

 

Good morning! At the dermatologist again, my wife makes me an appointment every two months because I apparently always have something questionable pop up on my skin.... her words.

Can’t complain, she takes damn good care of me. Don’t know what I’d do without her. Mushiness over!!

 

Bees, wasps and hornets really make for an exciting day. I got into a bee's nest a couple years ago. Was anticipating the attack thinking they were Africanized. To my suprise they were just good ol' honey bees. I figured by now they'd have pulled stakes and moved. Nope, stirred them up a couple weeks ago in the same spot. Think I'll drive a couple stakes to mark the spot and leave that area alone.

 

only got stung once on the neck today i sprayed them and hit it again at dusk. our worst ones are yellow jackets that nest in the ground or mulch. they are freakin mean and will swarm you.when Big Jim trail rides walking horses he will tell you bears and snakes are no worrys compared to a yellow jackets nest. first horse steps on it and the next riders in line get hammered and horse goes crazy

 

Yep Winter prep for the Tacoma is installing new Wiper blades and that's it !!!

 

you need a good 30inch snow storm. LOL

 

I've hit nests in the ground while moving dirt and stacked materials. Luckily I've always been in enclosed cabs everytime, just have to shut the doors. They get all kinds of defensive. Bounce off the glass, swarm the hood. Usually find a pretty good load in the air filter and pre-cleaner bowls. I've talked to tree fallers who've had to drop their saws and run. They said the yellow jackets swarm their saws and hold it hostage till it runs out of gas. One guy said he had to wait a day to get his saw back. Wasn't worried about anyone stealing it.

 

This is our average snowfall , this was in February this year ......... yes it snows in the High Desert !!

Baltimore Chloe has 3 girls to give her plenty of attention. Looks like she may be an inside dog way up there in the winter

both riders are broke here.
Come fix em and take a pup back

 

that sounds like a plan. showed the wife the pup pic this morning. she is like i want one.

 

Could’ve saved on cost while wife went to Baltimore but it was last minute. She tries to take 2 with her anywhere.

 

It’s 92 right now but humidity is low at 34% feels nice out but still hot in barn

 

Spindles are shot on mine.
I goober rigged them so the wheels don't fall off for another two months or until leaf chopping is done.
I'll order new ones this Winter.

 

"Goober rigged". I think I've seen that term used in techinical and service manuals.

 

Just got a delivery from Summit racing !!!

MSD 2 step to control rpm limit when Transbrake is activated

MSD rpm pills 3000 to 3800rpm

Biondo Racing Transbrake button

 

When are you going to be able to use this?
No use for it unless your going to make a run..

 

Here's where I'm at with the "mistress" project. For someone that paints once in a while and was using a 40 year old Binks model 7 suction fed spray gun, I think it came out pretty good.

 

That's the plan to run it at the track and play on the street !!!!! . The Coan Racing reverse valve body that was recommended has transbrake and to engage reverse I need a transbrake button . I thought the transbrake didn't need power to activate reverse as I wasn't going to use it . But found out it needed to wire it after I couldn't get reverse

I'm used to turbo 400's as they don't need power to activate reverse but turbo 350's do !!!!!
