    Fred had jury duty in the episode I watched one night, the judge told him he would be paid $5 a day. Fred said that's it? Judge said that's all the state can afford. Fred said how much are they paying you? :rofl:

    We cut out cable last year, and we do not miss the cable bill. However, someone also wants the local stations and I'm getting tired of messing with that antenna. You get it adjusted for 1 clear non-pixelated channel, the other 2 or 3 are not watchable. It doesn't help that there are trees on 3 sides of the house and a ridge behind us, but I know better than to waste my time trying to explain that! We had Locast until they got shut down by the big networks.

    Boss man said bore these out to 28mm and broach them for this key. I did the math and said it’ll be close I’ll see what happens.

    Shane already know this, but I thought I would post it here to get advice, encouragement, offers to do it for me, from you assorted machinists, welders, metal fixers and all around handy guys.

    I’m installing a dual battery system in my truck for the fridge and accessories. I’m putting a lithium battery on the rear seats and a DC DC charger. I have to drill a couple of holes into the cab to run the 4 gauge wire to the DC DC charger. I’m enlarging an existing hole in the rear wall of the cab on the drivers side. I will need to punch a second pole next to it for the other wire. The passenger rear wall also has an existing hole that I’m going to use to run power cables into the bed. It will require drilling a second hole also.

    I have waterproof cable glands to seal the holes and run the wires through and primer to spray on my newly created 3/4” holes. Anything else I should be doing?

    Anything

    Sounds like you've got it; I'd likely run a bead of RTV around the edge of the cable and gland, just to be doubly sure that there wasn't going to be a water ingress issue.

    Reminds me of a guy that came into autozone when i was working there briefly. He asks for a foot plus or minus of 1/4" rubber tubing and small hose clamps. I ask what hes doing.

    He says, his brake line is leaking so hes going to splice in the rubber tubing.

    I said, basically dont do that. And im not selling you tubing since you said that. :facepalm:

    We pay for Netflix and Prime...We never watch Prime but my wife likes it for the free shipping. I pretty much stick to TW, Youtube hunting videos and 2 or 3 series on Netflix.

    Side note:
    Ozark is :101010:

    But few shows beat this...
