Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Good morning friends! Hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday and awesome weekend

 

While your idea sounds absolutely astonishing, I want to use this old wheel I brought from our other house as a base/post




Just had an idea, mount the wheel horizontal, put the four mailboxes on it so they spin. Turn it to get your mail, it spins when the snow plow comes by. Oh yeah.

 

Well, we got a little rain last night. I don’t know how accurate it is, but that rain gauge said 1.4 yesterday morning.

 

Your welcome from the south.

 

Yikes!

No washouts or other types of weather related destruction.

Good morning Shane, Inc. Have a great weekend!

 

Not from what I could see, I’m sure there are I just haven’t been out enough to know where.

 

The day is off to a good start:

First, not raining.

Spoiler: The real first...

Mrs Green had to work so the house was quiet.

Then I found this on the side of the road with a FREE sign - and it works



Next I stopped at a sale and got this sturdy portable table with a 24 x 36 top.



Check out these nice drop down handles, up for moving on the 2 casters:



And down and out of the way when parked:



Anything else I do today is a bonus.

 

Genius idea right there!

Saves the post persons brakes!!

Maybe some sort of governor/arrestor to stop the kids from seeing how fast they can spin it

You could make it like a ferris wheel put some brackets on it...so they swing vertical

 

We got three inches in the past 24 hours. Clear and sunny now. Perfect!
just sliced up 10# of peaches for the freezer, only 130 pounds left to go ;-)

 

Mrs Green has developed an eye for good stuff after years of being with me.
Mrs Green >>

She scored this Dominion brand fan built in Mansfield, Ohio in the 60's.
It is startlingly heavy as it is all metal.



Also well designed for EZ service, both grills pull off without tools.



Each side of the motor has an oil port, vacuum out the cooling passages and a few drops of 20 grade non-detergent oil and it is ready to go back to work.



It is very satisfyingly smooth & quiet...

...and it was free!

 

These on the other hand weren't free.




Brand new (old) taillights for a 66 Ford,
I actually got these in the post about 3 days before I found the car.
Mrs Green asked if I was buying the car one piece at a time.

Guard was gone off the mower my buddy gave me so I made one.









I ask him a few days ago if he had it, he sent me this just now

 

Good morning everyone, I hope you have a pleasant Sunday

 

Mornin' folks

Debbie dumped 6+ inches around here. Cistern filled up quick so Thursday night I diverted the water out into the yard as I'm pretty sure the overflow goes into the weeping tile. Power blipped at work Friday morning, but that was it. Thought my basement was all clear till I walked near the door yesterday and the rug was wet. None of the animals made a mess, so it was definitely water. I think it came through the door. The little drain at the bottom of the steps outside just dumps into the ground, so I'm betting it was pooling up and getting in through the door. I wasn't home to monitor it, so who knows. Honestly that much rain and that's all that happened, I think I made out ok. No other foundation leaks and the drainfield seemed to hold (even though someone decided to do a load of laundry when I said not to).

 

Good morning shop crew, hope everyone has a great, safe and blessed Sunday.
