Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Just where do you purchase the Oversize Permits??

That brings back memories waiting at the state line for permits .

When a Fax was high tech!

 

Last Tuesday Morning I managed to dump a very hot Cup of Coffee on my left thigh.

Just goes to prove kitchens are dangerous. I think it was the worst burn I ever had in all my working life.

A few inches to the right I think would have hurt much worse.

Aloa Vera for the win then my Body went into hibernation .

I just started to move somewhat yesterday .

 

I've had one with just 3/8" drive for years. Don't use it much, but when you need it...

 

I think some of those boxes need to see some input voltage from a battery to provide output. Some won't boost a super dead battery because they don't see any voltage. I believe it's part of the safety feature that stops it from sparking of you accidentally touch the two clamps.

Nevermind, I should read more before I reply.

 

My oldest decided he should buy a 150ish year old house. He dropped off this old lock set to see if I could clean it up. I found the end of a broken key and a pin inside.

They don't make 'em like they used to.

 

That's awesome! No picture of the broken key?

 

I'm guessing this package isn't coming...

 

Any more Who knows ??

I love the ones that cancel with no notice so when you check to see why it was not delivered your then told it was out of stock two weeks later.

 

It's just the end. I'm guessing by looking at it, that it was the wrong key. That and the pin were in the guts of the mechanism when I took it apart. The other thing is to hold a double hung window open I think. It was just a blob of paint, you couldn't see the date or writing at all.

 

The key is awesome with the double hearts!

 

Great news!!
Enjoy your meal out, you earned it!

 

I fixed one of those this summer - wire brush, tiny bit of grease, a spring and a screw from True Value had it working like new.

 

Congrats it will come my friend

 

This one needed the 75 years of paint and extra parts removed. It's now good for another ½ century.

 

Cole came in and said his mower needed some gas, I said how’s the oil? He said it’s good, it’s still smoking.


When it stops smoking we have to add some

 

Spoken like a seasoned mechanic

 

I laughed way, too hard at this.

Adding oil is still less hassle and money vs a teardown/rebuild.

I got one staring at me right now. I'm running that rig until leaf season is over.
