Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Spitwads tend to clog the gas valves.

 

Quote of the day from XM radio:

"George Strait is the Frank Sinatra of country music."

 

Wait.. where does Johnny Cash fit into this scenario?

 

He was the Bad Boy..

 

On my potato, the manifold looked like grey PVC. My mistake.

 

Good question.

 

An average human can blow about 1.5 psi like blowing up a balloon, or so my friends at the physic forums say. So, 3x your best balloon pressure. Pretty sure any PVC will handle that.

 

Now or fifty years ago.

 

Both!

 

True, but will a building inspector? I could see those Natzi's blowing a gasket.

 

I'll agree the pic look odd but if an inspector can't tell gas service gray painted iron from PVC I'd go full Karen on the inception office

Dang, talk about team support!!!

 

Man’s gotta eat
Other subjects discussed are guns….trucks sometimes too.

 

He's the man in black.

 

In my case it depends on what county you live in.
At my mini split county Asheville is in extreme strict. They want 120 outlet next to mini split. My county not so much. But the electric co-op put mini split in and guy says what county you in? Oh my BIL is the inspector there don't worry about it.

 

I truly don't care. Common sense, to me, is more important than a rule.

 

I posted a link before to this guy's thread that Tesla swapped a 1st Gen 2WD... he just posted a video of the truck driving... pretty impressive

We're reshooting.

Indoors this time.

Like we should have done the first time.

 

Good morning everyone

Happy Friday

Looks like I got some catching up to do…

 

Even with the holidays we had a busy week. We designed and prototyped a dash mount for the the Jeep JL & JT. This design was originally going to be two part steel design, but ended up going with injection molded feet and then a steel top plate with our typical 1/4" slot pattern. The 3D printed feet were a good test fit and I am excited to see the production ones with threaded inserts. We also installed a COBB intercooler on our '23 Raptor. Its amazing the difference in construction between the stock one and the COBB...literally no comparison. A bit of man handling to get the old one out and the new one in - the COBB instructions are fun (there's some humor in there) and it took about an hour. But, I am most excited for digging into a new Colorado Z71 we picked up yesterday. Bedside panels look straight forward, not too different from the 1500, but the inside has some opportunities for new products.
