Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

I just dabba-do-ya measure

Then a dab more

 

1 is on and 0 is off, this comes from the binary language.

 

They look better with dirt on them

 

Strawberries and a Zinger

 

How cruel! You make her sit there and hold the plate while you eat…
I’m jealous I didn’t do that with my daughter and son when they were younger.

 

Since it looks like I can't embed from imgur, here are the links to the Machine Gun Vegas clips (or is it mags?)

Glock 17
MP5
M4
AK-47

Hoover Dam pictures inbound, too.

 

Now that is a sure way to make a 10 year old boys day!

 

What model is the Wisconsin?
All my manuals are down at the garage unfortunately...

 

Hoover Dam pictures are coming, I swear. But first, a bridge.

Bus sprung a leak



Walked across the bridge ALL THE WAY TO ARIZONA to get some dam pictures. This is the widest concrete arch bridge in the western hemisphere.

 

NOW the Dam.



50' wide, 600' long spillway



Inlets to bring water to the turbines



30' pipe that branches off to 13' pipes to each turbine



Said turbines. These are on the Nevada side, there are another set on the Arizona side.



Tour guide said the thickness of the dam behind us is roughly the same as the distance to the far wall in front of us - about 660'.

 

@Chunk

They don't make art deco shit like they used to...

 

Awesome dam pictures! I should have tried to tours many years ago
Just taking a break from ball joint job and pondering; was thinking about a show I once watched about a fella who built this massive stone house...big huge stones weighing tons....he did it all at night with no cranes or anything...there was some mention of aliens involvement...or power of levitation...I swear it had to be something like that. I can't hardly get a darn ball joint replaced without a third arm.
I better get back to work now.

 

Unknown. Small, one-lung upright; <5hp. It's on an early 60s(?) plate tamper.

 

I’ve heard there’s lone star ticks up here as well, but I’ve never seen one. If I do, it’ll get the same gas/fire treatment the dog/deer ticks get!

 

Do you have the plug you want to cross? I have the ACDelco, Wells, and Bosch catalogs that have references for cross as well as range value details. Not sure if covered, since mostly auto.

 

Went to replace the wheels on one of my suitcases, and it didn't occur to me, until after I boogered up the philips head, that one of the screws would be left hand thread and the other would be right hand.

 

Amazing how far and fast technology has advanced from the first generating station in 1882 or something like that.

 

@tirediron @RustyGreen - I didn’t see anything useful without a reference, but even then, I don’t see much. Did a web search and found this site https://classic-engines.com/engines-2/wisconsin/3/ which seems to indicate: Spark Plug Data
Champion Plug Number: CH. 7
AC Plug Number: AC-G-8
(Source: Some of the data are from “Wisconsin Service Manual”)

 

maybe this helps...
