1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

On one end its damn near required, on the other its child abuse

 

You'll have a month still after we have ours, meaning...you better catch up on sleep for the both of us

 

Nice, I’ll have to drop in there sometime. We had sandwiches from the Buffalo outdoor center and they were shockingly good, especially considering it’s the off season.

 

I'll do my best to get sleep. I have a month of vacation time before the end of the season so. As soon as she is born that will kick in then my normal summer time off. It should be 5 months of no work. I'll make sure to get some sleep for all of us.

 

You wont.

 

Back at it again with the folding table

 

I'm ok with that because she will be the only priority.

 

I'll still be in school

Fortunately Stephanie is gonna have a lot of time off; first maternity leave, then baby bonding.

Then once that's over, be up to me to stay at home.

Send help

 

I'd love a small shop someday with tons of counter/bench space and room for 2-3 vehicles.

 

Depends on the store. All the chain places usually have 1-2 end caps (near the ethnic food aisle?) with a bunch of different tortillas from the big chains and a couple local ones... But yeah they're not near the bread ever lol

 

Hey, when you work on your cars outdoors laying on gravel for years, you appreciate any indoor work you can!

 

Best response yet

I'm recommending this to all soon to be parents. Because contrary to popular belief, they do not come with FSMs.

It comes and goes with stress and some seasons are def more so than others

 

All good. I rebuilt that transfer case on one of those folding tables. That thing is permanently sunk a little in the center and marred from tcase edge scrapes. We wont talk about the grime and other marks. Caught a little flack from the Mrs. for that one.

 

100%. Learned a lot working on a tarp over dirt or in the street/dorm parking lot. Just going to do my best to not go back to that if I can help it.

Partially rebuilt mine on this table which is why @Running Board Man remembers it lol.

 

Speaking of, would love to down the LC for a month or two (after school) to do some much needed maintenance.

Need to rebuild the front end, which I'll do to a spare to swap in place. Maybe look into replacing the power steering setup and use the beefier 105 series sector shaft, and eliminate the rear heater.

 

Must be a jeep thing

When you have to plow the fields at 4 and meet the boys for mudding at 5
