Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Not even an honorable mention…

 

Scraps n Napkins! Was beef quesadilla!

 

Aaaaaaand now I'm hungry.

 

Did yours have a hair in it too? I ate around it.

 

Was trying to stay with the carpenters, that guy is a good plumber though

 

Bob had the gift of Gab!

 

Norm on the other hand could snap his fingers and replace a 18X18 beam under a 150 yr old house without missing a beat

 

coffered ceilings with hidden speakers and plaster chandelier medallions, or…


a working shitter?



I know where I stand.

 

Or sit.....

 

Largest stop collars I’ve ever made, 6” bore, 7 1/4” OD.

 

I hate how lawn mower shops will refuse to work on something because of the brand of mower, even though the engine is a Briggs. And the others have a 10-12 week wait time. I chickened out on replacing the governor seal.

 

Dude. Richard Trethewey is the man! I've learned so much plumbing and HVAC stuff from that guy!

 

Tom Silva was always my favorite

 

In our case that's due to not being able to put the machine in the system we use to order parts. Even though the engine may be the same, if we can't put the unit in the system, then warranty work can't be done. If it's a carb cleaning/generic fix, then we can fudge some things and get a part ordered. Our wait time now is about 2 months and that's due to issues with the supply chain. Simple things can be done in a week

 

how do you line up the hole drilled in the edge of the collar? Thickness I get, but outside to inside of the ring, so it’s right through the thickest part of the material and not a ‘glancing blow’ seems complicated to me for some reason..

 

I had to talk a local shop into working on my craftsman rider with a Briggs motor, they usually don't work on craftsman or mowers over 10 years old and mine is both of those things.

 

Wait let me guess. I'm betting he bumps the side of the collar then moves the table over by half of the thickness of the collar.

 

Edge finder and some math
