1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I get that, the instructors had us all introduce ourselves and the kid didnt wanna sound like a greenhorn so he said he has been "with Wolverine and around powerpacks for years." Which is technically true since grandad owns it.
So he was fucking lost most of the day since the the instructors assumed everyone has been working on em for years

I had him write down questions he had during the class and we'll go over em later at dinner. I'm pretty sure he thinks carbs are black magic

 

Got so much extra steel thinking of making a new welding cart.

Just got done cutting several pieces already.

 

Ah I get you. Why does society feel the need to keep developing everything until the world’s a concrete shithole.

 

Because there's too many of us alive.

True. But it baffles me when sections of our limited public land here in Texas get sold off for subdivisions and RV parks. There are a million other places to build, but rich people want a view of nature. Until they’ve ruined it for us all.

 

Is there much nature in Texas to view that's worth viewing?

 

@Ozark_RegCab I got to watch my offroad playground move from timberland to Chenal with a County Club and neighborhoods.

 

I mean it’s all I have for the next 2-3 years. Some federally owned state managed land out here is an escape from the oilfield wasteland surrounding us.

 

Big Bend and Guadalupe mountain are pretty spectacular, and I think the hill Colin try around Austin is meant to be nice. I’ve just been to Dalhart which is apparently not the most scenic part.

If I didn't wreck mine it totally would've been me

 

I didn’t know places still taught how to work on carbs, that’s kinda cool.

 

Did you have an STI?

 

Most of our oil and gas is on public with a good chunk on tribal, all out in the desert though so it's fine

 

I had 2 camrys, so basically yeah

 

You run a plasma cutter? What model? is it worth it?... cutting up the toolboxes on my truck with a grinder makes me want a torch or plasma

 

Texas oilfield country gives off Gulf War Kuwaiti oil fire vibes.

 

People drive from surrounding states to visit Barnwell Mountain Rec Area for Toyota Jamboree. We don't have anything this nice up where I'm from.
