1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I can get both fle the price of one. Now thats a deal

 

Job shop that does smaller batch CNC work too (they have a vertical CNC mill, a lathe or two) but most of their work is manual one off stuff, they're right in between a couple huge auto shops and a place the restores just about anything made of metal. I'm excited, they're very busy too which bodes well.

If it was a year or two from now I'd have had an opportunity to work for some friends at their shop which is exclusively CNC, but I think it will be great to start out fresh in a job shop.

 

i never had much problems when my truck was newish, the only thing i remember was a squeaky clutch pedal down there

Have you ventured over there?

Everything from AC drip tube, to AC noises, auto transmission, rust on seat tracks, to using your headlights to change a stop light and more.

 

Link don't work for me.

 

There is a surge for sale for cheap

 

Oh, nah, I'm not interested in the Surge. Not useful for me. I pretty much have what I need now for cordless tools. Just waiting for the M12 die grinder to come out. After that nothing really else I want..... that is until they come out with something else new that catches my eye.

 

As luck would have it, the two parts that I didn't replace during the refresh started failing this week.

1) Radiator has started a small leak around the seam. Ordered a new Denso from Amazon. Used Discover credits to pay for it.
2) TPS. Throws a P0120 code every morning. Unplugged it and replugged it thinking it might be connection related. That helped for a couple of days. Ordered Part

$75 89452-35020 Throttle Position Sensor

89452-35020 to replace it.

Ordered a set of Wheelers AAL20-1 Add-a-Leafs with a set of 6.75" U-bolts to hopefully lift and level the rear 1.5". Also, ordered a set of 3 degree shims. I'm not sure I need the shims with only 1.5" AALs but that's all I could find on Wheelers site.

Good Luck!

 

I started out to be a machinist with Remington Ammunition, then got into high-end audio sales (guess which brand?) back when it was really booming, then went to back school and launched a career programming computers for financial institutions. I'm still in the computer biz today. Funny how things can turn out completely different from what you start out do in life.

 

The surge is a weird drill to use. Like if you try to vary the speed with the trigger it wil lock its self out it like a low rom mode.

 

Stfu

 

Why did I take you off my ignore list?

 

My sleep schedule has been a wreck all week and I've been paying for it

 

I am so phucking worn out still

 

Seep more


On a another note. I showed up for a 5am start time and the job took 20 mins so now im just hanging out deciding if i wanna take another call or go home all ready then just work later today

 

I tried. Made it to about 1 am before I woke up for an hour and a half. Back to sleep for more dark dreams

Bleh

 

Damn, that sounds like a tough call. What are you leaning towards

 

More calls. If i work my hours now i can be home early. Vs going home and sleeping then coming back out and possibly working late
