Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Morning, Wrenchmen!!

And Happy Birthday to @Daria!!!!

 

This guy walked right up to me . He ain't skeered

 

You weren't trying to search up that book for @koditten were you?

 

Boss sent this out to the fab place to make the funnel for the plate I made the other day.

 

Good morning Shane and crew

 

That's gonna look great!! I did my side step thingy, rear bumper and my cart I use with my lawn mower with Rustoleum bed liner, love that stuff!!

 

I've never painted anything with it, hope the HF brand is as good as the Rust Oleum which I kinda doubt it will be

The way I look at it is, whatever it looks like it won't be white anymore on a black truck

 

Stir it really well, eets gonna look great!!

 

Did you use a brush or a roller? There's no way I can get all the tight places with a roller.

 

Brush. I (think) I used a 3".

 

Back when I was in school the kids in sports were required to dress up on Friday.

So this big dumb fellow (not me BTW ) is knurling a part on the 1960's South Bend lathe and his tie gets between the part and the rollers.

The lathe is in the super slow range and commences to winch him in -- he commences to scream -- up about 3 octaves...
Flailing around he managed to hit the stop button in time.

 

Is that a crack or just a mark on the top weld?

 

I had a flannel shirt on and was threading a piece on our old Tida manual lathe and felt myself starting to be pulled down. Somehow my shirt got wrapped around the spinning bar on front of the lathe. I realized what was happening and put it in reverse to unwind myself, luckily since I was threading I had it running slow. I haven't worn a flannel shirt to work since.


It looked almost identical to this one and the exposed bars you can see, turn

 

Just a mark. When I looked at that photo I thought it was a crack too and went and checked

 

I didnt know this gal but she was a senior in high school about the time i was a freshman. Anyways she had long hair and got it caught in drill press. It Took a plug of hair about the size of a silver dollar off the top off her head

 

In an old facility I used to work in, we had a paper shredder that turned documents into fine sawdust consistency, it was insane. One day, a dude got his tie sucked in to the knot. After getting him out, one of our coworkers that was a former airborne trooper went and affixed a strap cutter to the side of the shredder in case you needed to extricate yourself from your predicament.

 

Ouch!
No girls in our shop classes back then.
