Northern Virginia Roll Call

On the topic of throwing stuff. in a shop or garage is one thing. You can usually find it afterwords. In the field… hang it up, it’s gone. Even more so if you are in a wood line and 30-40 in the air.

 

What happened? This thread got really quiet recently. How's everyone's Monday?

 

Monday is going alright. Ordered a new Denso A/C condenser yesterday, since mine got bonked pretty good when the ice chunk went through my radiator lol. I was doing alright in the winter since I didn't need a/c, but now windows down isn't exactly cutting it.

How about your monday?

 

Dude that blows. Im working. I gotta do it at least a few hours a week to keep my job. @EatSleepTacos & I were recently discussing that we dont this the two of us together have pulled a 40hr combined week in......well maybe forever

 

Yeah its all resolved with the radiator stuff now, just didn't feel like replacing the condenser at the time. I'm tempted to just fill up the system, but part was cheap enough

I'm at work too. Unfortunately they won't do let me bill for more than 40hrs because I'm an intern, but last week I spent 50hrs here, so my overflow can go towards the group 40hrs lol. I do see randy is always working on Betty during the day hahaha

 

Yea and i have a bunch of projects going too, just not all truck. lol

 

Speaking of, anyone have experience with paint sprayers?

 

Took the truck to big levels this weekend. The Kings make a HUGE improvement! Taking bumps like its nothing, at one point i was flying down the trail.

 

I used the harbor freight $9 HVLP gun to spray my arcade machine and a few other projects and it worked pretty well.

Theres a youtube channel Paint Society that has a lot of good videos on automotive painting, but he tests out a few of the HF spray guns and they do alright

 

Jealous. I havent taken the truck out with the new wheels and driveshaft yet

 

The weather got nice and our hands are too dirty to type with. New plants, mulch, more mulch. Oh, and more plants to plant in the already spread new mulch. And that's the front yard...

And my next rounds of mods in prep for the bumper / winch have shown up. I may to take some time off...

Off to the back yard (as he looks for a place to string the hammock) ...

 

Anyone on here good at designing 3d printed things?

 

Adam is eager to hone in his skills

 

Well....@ilubtimmyhos i need a holder to hold 2 levels in my van. I have a printer, but no skills

 

Not sure why that tag didnt work.

 

@ilubtimmyhos

 

Because you break everything you touch

 

@ilubtimmyhos

Huh weird.

 

Spotted in Ashburn. Who is it? @Darkgoatracer new truck?

 

Not me. I dont eat burgers.
