Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Sad indeed

 

I give my UPS driver money every time I see him and $100.00 for Christmas and people laugh at me .

 

Wow it showed up I am impressed !!

 

I had a package come through USPS that showed up on Monday that the tracking said Wednesday.

 

Last day of the year and one of my AutoCAD files is being an absolute pain in the ass. Nothing I'm trying is working and I'm quickly running out of ideas. Besides the one I really don't want to do - completely start the drawing over.

 

I had some great customers that always looked after me. I always took extra care of my tippers , lol. Some had special hiding places , some hid a key for me and if i needed a signature , id just sign for them.

 

If you can’t fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem

 

I'm not sure if I'm pleased that I finally got it working or if I'm annoyed that I have no idea what I did that made it work. Calling it a win and moving on!

 

Co worker this morning at shift change was fishing and had his diesel truck exhaust cut out from the converter to the dpf. He didn’t think much thought his turbo was going and got home unloaded his boat and saw his tail pipes sagging . Crawled underneath and saw it cut out. He said 3k in parts not installed and worth 600in scrap is what the shop. It is methed up

 

That’s crazy. We have a mechanic across the street from work and he sells used converters, he’s legit and makes a lot of money off of them.

 

I’ve fixed the powdercoaters mailbox twice already, he just sent me this. Someone backed into it this morning. He has video

 

I’m gonna be in so much trouble. Wife said stop a d pick up these little Bundt cakes and don’t eat any.

 

Might as well finish off that last red velvet cake!

 

Remove the wrappers, tell her that’s all they had

 

I be in more trouble

 

Go pick up a bunch more

 

Wait a second, someone shipped ammo in a nice heavy duty box? The Hell you say? Maintenance technician here and you normally you see 40-60lb boxes of ammo shipped in boxes made of paper mache. Only reason I know this as it's not unusual to see them being re-boxed. Kinda scary to think these go across our electro-magnetic sorters, as I gotta put these things back together when they go boom.



Ah look, my first post here outta the way. Been reading it for a while and enjoy yous all post. As I said before I'm a industrial maintenance technician for one of the big shippers. I get payed to put machines back together, weld, and play with fire (I make every excuse to get the torch out, my coworkers think I'm nuts. Jokes on them, I am!). Sometimes all the same time... We don't do near the fabricating you guys do, but knowing what goes into it makes me appreciate it.

 

Welcome! Share some pictures of the fires

After thinking about what you said, maybe that’s why the shipping was free

 

Oh I wish I could, some of the stuff is epic! Unfortunately I signed this piece of paper when I was hired saying it was a no-no. I have a metric shittone of part numbers though, everybody likes those right?. No? Damn

Shitty boxes are just the beginning of it... I wish I could divulge more.

 

I understand the signing of the paper and the no sharing. We have several of those companies we’ve had to do that for. Some of the stuff in their buildings is super cool and invented/made in house with a little help from us on the machining side.
