Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Torque wrench on spark plugs, we need answers so cast your vote now

My garage does a killer job of keeping the snow out of my truck, too. Too bad I have to go to work.

 

Looks peaceful.

I didn't know you folks had big rocks out there, thought it was all spacious skies & amber waves of grain. (I don't get out much...)

 

My truck sits all winter, I didn't even start it for about 4 months. Battery Tender FTW.

 

Rough cut with a chain saw then run through a planer?

 

Gotcha,

 

One more cause its "purdy"

You gotta hunt around for em a bit, but they're around haha

 

I have several quarts of minwax stain that I bought 20 years ago at a deep discount. I think it was frozen (hence the discount), but I've stained dozens of projects with it and it's never let me down. I used two different types of these, then coated everything with raw linseed oil for food safety in case they ever actually get used by someone.

Yep, then sanded a fair bit.

 

Old timers used linseed oil for a lot of things - tool handles and wooden ladders immediately come to mind.

Almost 20 years ago I painted my shed with linseed oil "fortified" paint, it still looks quite good. Unfortunately I can't find the paint anymore.

 

Because it lasts to long!!

You will need to blend your own!

 

Morning all
Have a great day

 

I am glad it seems the worst of the Smoke and smell is gone.

I have never seen the air this bad .

Like the neighbors barn has just burned down from the hay being baled to wet.

All the things that were in the barn. I think this was much worse.

 

Good morning everyone, have a great and blessed day.

Good Morning Everyone

Welcome to the weekend.

 

Good morning shop crew

 

I worked at a linseed oil plant many years ago. Only place I knew of where you didn’t need a hanger for coveralls. They just stood up by themselves once you shuck’d ‘em.

 

Morning, all. Pulled something in my back yesterday and couldn't get to sleep last night then to top it off woke up with a nice headache.

Might as well make it all worse and get the lawn mowed. Then I need to get some plants planted in the landscaping and replace 2 lights that are rusting in the kids bathroom. And wash some clothes.

 

Hope you get feeling better!
Weather forecast called for all day rain but haven't gotten but a few drops here n there.
Anyway with all the rain we suppose to get I kind of plan on a lazy day. Figure I might go to Horrible Fright store, they extend last weekend sale.
I got home from work yesterday and entire yard was mowed! I ask the wife so she must really like the new Zero Turn....yep! She says
Maybe I'll get a try it someday

 

I taught the ex wife how to run the snow blower and for the next 5 years I never got to touch it hahaha

 

These tactics have never worked for me. My wife and kids say, "you always get it done before we get a chance". Which is... kinda sorta, a little true,... but not entirely.

 

Thank you. I'll get there. Might not be today, but I'll get there.

My wife mowed once 15 years ago, blames her getting allergies on it and said my mower sucked so we bought a then top of the line Honda.
