Hard to say..

I was fortunate to experience pop/rock radio in the 70s and went country/alt country about 1980 on.

That said I explore a lot with cheap CDs gambling a dollar. If I like it I play it, if not I'm only out a buck and got the experience.

Garage music is also different than driving music. Here in the garage I often play smooth jazz but seldom on the road.

 

The thing about wheels I can`t see them while I drive . Except for with a 48' flat bed on some roads in WVA route 60 comes to mind

I could care less what Color they might be as long as the bead seals and they hold air.

I have been told Hot Pink would look good so would that safety lime Green.

 

That looks like the one!

Thanks!

I got 4 coming from Amazon on Friday. If they ain't it, I'll try these out.

I knew the collective thinking of the team would come up with a solution!

 

So HD and Exmark mowers are in bed together to put the hurt on us average Joe's? (Actually, there is nothing average about the crew here. We strive to fix our shit).

I'm not surprised. Thankyou for that contribution. It's nice to know I wasn't losing my mind.

 

I wonder is that tank large enough to get inside?

Because if it is leaking it would be on the back side up against the wall impossible to reach.

It would not be the first tank I saw built inside unable to be removed unless it was in pieces .

 

After noon 'gents

RE: Poll

Pocket knives mostly, and quality zipties. I can't stand cheap zipties, as such I have a decent selection of good quality zipties at my disposal.

 

Poll I would always by extra consumables.

Extra steel included on job bids

 

That's neat! I'm a metal head mostly, but I also listen to a bunch of classical music and music from the 1940's.

 

I had to click other as I could not pick them all. My wife keeps saying I need to pick one hobby. After my last motorcycle wreck, I got rid of those, but still, have minibikes. I have my pilot's license and I have many different cars in different phases of construction. I have a nice whiskey collection and I'm pro 2A. As I'm writing this, I realize it sounds like singles add. But you asked and I didn't want a ban. Then, of course, there is the senseless shit I've collected at different racing events or car shows. My wife is not sentimental for many small things, she has a few of my boys' things, but they like the weird things dad brings home from the swap meet. So I'm happily passing the torch off, you can tell a lot about a guy by looking at his tool bench... if you can find it. Currently, they're fighting over a 12" Rat Fink I bought at Bonneville last year.

 

Here's a sample of the rocks I have collected.

 

Music I enjoyed the late fifties early sixties Rock and Roll .

Then I switched to Country Music in the late seventies. Last 20 years talk radio.

Since most times I wear ear plugs music in the shop at home was seldom is a real concern.

 

Knives first, mostly lockback folders and all the way up into Ka-Bars and the like.
Then guns, I've never gotten rid of a gun I bought.
Then stickers in the last 5 years, all over the fridge, tool boxes etc...
Then license plates in the last 5 years or so as well.
I see myself progressing into automobilia, gas and oil as space allows down the road.

 

Do you find them (where?) or buy them?

 

I’m an “other”… not really collecting any more, but have automobilia. Plenty of it centered on Corvairs. Toys, models, manuals. Plenty of parts, shop, factory books. Chevy heavy, w interchange, fisher, etc.

 

Well that's freakin' stupid!! A .4mm difference is HUGE when you're trying to get a bearing on to a shaft; couldn't they change the part # by a single, freakin' digit????

 

I know! Exactly what I was thinking!

 

I play the oddest variety in the garage. It can go from classic rock to funk, stoner metal/rock, new wave of heavy British metal, and metal.



The nice thing about where I live now is I can play it however loud I want

 

My typical playlist involves Pink Floyd, Metallica, Pearl Jam, FFDP, Beastie Boys, movie soundtracks, etc. but I'll pretty much listen to anything.

My latest new-to-me music that I've been listening to is Leo Moracchioli. He makes metal covers of songs that really have no business being metal.

I think what I'm most impressed with is that he does all the singing, guitar, bass, drums and editing himself. He occasionally has a guest singer.

 

The garage is concrete block, the music can only get so loud before all that hard surface gets out of hand.

I'm also pretty far past my loud music/loud muffler days.
