DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

This is quite possibly the slowest work day Ive ever had.

 

if you had a couple laying around, I’d gladly take them off you hands. Let me know how much you’d like for them.

 

I’ll see if I can dig them up.

 

Whatcha makin?

 

I have 3 or 4 in my garage

 

I made a platform to replace our 18 year old box spring that was in bad shape. This raised the mattress up so it’s easier to put the sheets on, as well as getting in and out of bed. There’s also some garage and closet shelves in that load as well. Next weeks projects.

 

This was today's project. Got the crushed granite shoveled in. Then got the retro patio furniture set up, and now its grilling time.

 

Looks good! That’s a big lot, what area of town are you in?

 

I am south of Dallas in Ovilla. in between Red Oak and Midlothian.
I have acre here.

 

Had two CV’s delivered tonight. Planning to remove my two stock ones tomorrow and get them rebuilt, and use the ones I use received as frail spares.

 

Is master craft still down there?

 

Yes it is. About 1 mile from my house. Eric (the son) took over many years ago.

 

Happy Easter!

 

First CV is out!
Other side, one of the two bolts on the bottom of the spindle, where it attaches to the LBJ, is seized. Impact won't move it and I just broke a breaker bar.

Bullshit

 

You broke the breaker bar?

 

Thats not good!

 

You need help

 

Time to break out the hot wrench...

 

I have a small butane torch, it didn’t do much.

Ran up to O’Reilly’s for a bigger breaker bar.

That bar, the jack handle, and some taps with a hammer broke it loose.
