Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Where is your wallet…..poll

I had to look it up, never used one before.

 

Actually, something I need, and haven't got around to buying!

 

Nope, meat tenderizer roller

 

About 18 years ago I had a mechanical p-i-a called a Plymouth Horizon.
They door handles frequently broke, it was always wise to have a spare -- or four...

 

Stop yanking on the dam things like a madman and they wouldn’t break.
A shot of lube in the latch assembly solved all issues.

 

The only cars I have ever had the doors freeze shut were Chryslers.

 

We are multi make here -- the taillight is from a upper model 63 Ford Falcon I believe.
The cheaper ones didn't have reverse lights, the clear section is real glass too.

 

How well does that cut pasta?

 

Lube alone wouldn't solve all the Horizon issues, it combined 2 words that never should be used together: computer and carburetor.

 

Depends on how hungry you are.

 

The one I had looked like this:

 

Oh yea. They leaned those things out until the duty cycle was 100%.
Plus the friggin rubber carb isolators that would break down and create the biggest vac leak
You could imagine.

 

Lean Burn

 

The imperials were the 400 lean burns..
Engine compartment would get so hot it would melt shit. Couldn’t work on them until
They cooled off. Would melt the exhaust hoses if not carefully. Computer circuit boards would crack and
Just die randomly.
I could squeeze the computer housing between the p and the u on the sticker and kill the
Engine if it was cracked…

 

We have one at work, works good on the regular grinding wheel. Not so much on the wheel for carbide. Prolly work good for pasta

 

Yeah I figured it would be late, glad it wasn’t.

 

That's a wheel dresser.

 

Paid mom a visit today and got her some food and supplies on my way. It was nice to see her and I could tell it lifted her spirits a bunch.

Yep we have several of those grinding wheel dressers at work even a couple of larger dressers for the scary monster size grinder. There's a drawer full of reloads for them too. Luckily I don't have to use them as much because I've put up enough signs to keep the knucklehead welder dudes from ruining them sharpening tungsten. A major blood boiler if I need to grind a HSS tool bit and a big groove in the middle of the wheel from tungsten.

Rusty, I love that old tail light lens...can I have it
Just kidding but I do like it!

 

I did some searching, it is from a Galaxie 500. PM me your address

 

I have a dedicated wheel just for sharping Tungsten I would not want to contaminate the Tungsten

Always Good to Visit Mom!
