Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

its supposed to be 107 here today.... I aint doing anything.

 

We have many but they are for doing inside bores. They also have a long stroke, need something that just pinches out what needs to be taken out.

 

Unless you work for a company pinching pennies Then you just plan on doing things 2 or 3 times.

The stories I could tell Boiler tubes on the Enterprise !

 

And, I suspect that unless the feed rate was at a pace along the lines of 'glacial', a broach might well tear, or mis-shape that thin-wall tubing.

 

Bingo. Maybe I'll just keep doing it with the angle head and end mill like I've been doing for years

 

I dont know honestly, but have always been curious, especially with him. He's so different than his brother, build and personality wise.. had to be different dads. They were rescues and were just a few weeks old when we got them. Dont they do like a breed test somehow? I'd love to know what he's got in him for sure.

 

The trailer I picked up off the side of the road is ready to take home. It’s almost straight now. Cole doesn’t know about it, he’ll have 3 now

 

Macy likes to lay in the mulch....





Buddy stays inside.




FYI there's a cat thread

I'm sure they do have a breed test, but

 

awwww man.. just what I need.. more cat shit in my life. lol

We let our boys out back.. they roll around in the sand and rub all over the truck tires. They try to escape by jumping up on the wall and running to the front. We have to keep an eye on them when they are outside.

true.. I'll have to look into it. Might be worth it.

 

More old iron back to work

What is the unit up on the wall, air cooler/dryer?
Heat exchanger for a welder?
Flux capacitor?

 

Dryer for the air, hasn’t been plugged in for years.

 

Somebody done a nice job redoing this square body.

 

Nice! Id drive it

 

It’s at the landscape place, I see it everyday. Saw them pulling in a few weeks ago.

 

Finally back on this project, haven't touched it since I last posted on it

 

That’s the bass pro ones isn’t it? Who makes them?

 

They're manufactured by textron. Textron bought out arctic cat

 

Textron Inc ... reading their data on website is very cryptic...they won't come right out and say where the engines are produced... they are assembled in the USA. I smell a rat ... but I already have a distrust and general dislike of Bass Pro. But that's just me.

 

And just like that I'm off the project again
