Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Tool flex? I've seen boring bars bell-mouth like that if they aren't running right.

 

Lies. I do fine with my 18 point turns!

 

I don’t think it was flex to be honest, boss said they have a new lathe operator and they just messed up I think and hoped it didn’t matter.

 

Ooof I worked with a couple people like that in the past. "Just move it on and hope no one notices..."

 

There is always some drinking water here + some flushing water, not very convenient to use however.
I heated some water on the range to shave and wash up with this morning.

 

That is factory worker logic right there.

 

That is till someone catches it downstream and the company has 18 quality stand downs.

 

A year? Might be next week

 

Just sold the 1st of the 2 mowers. Just got the one with the dump from your seat bagger.

This one gone.

 

Don't tell the wife, but I hope this one doesn't sell.

 

I’ve done it a time or nine but it really didn’t matter, one was recently I drilled 300 holes in some round aluminum parts with the wrong drill bit, they were a little bigger cause I didn’t measure the drill bit when I got it out which I normally do. I haven’t told anybody, until now

When I mess something up I own it and show the boss, he’s good about not chewing me out.

 

Price it for $15k and tell her nobody wants one with that malignant tumor on the back

I love mine with the bagging system

 

Hauling lumber in a short bed has it's challenges!



Glad we got the 6' bed access cab now for lumber and mulch runs.


EDIT: Holy friggin large image, lets downsize that!

 

I hauled mulch in the Duramax a few years ago, had to make 3 trips. When I got 5 yards last week, they charged me $35 to deliver it.

 

I refuse to get mulch delivered. I keep it in the bed and just drive around the yard where needed. No need to load it in a wheelbarrow and unload it.


Hmm, gotta rethink that one a little more with the new house. Can't drive around the back yard in one spot; I'd driving right over the septic tank field in one area. Well chit!

 

I don’t mind driving through the yard, won’t bother our septic tank either. Just easier to get it all here in one trip was all. I figured it would take us longer to spread it and didn’t want to fight the crowd going back on the holiday weekend

 

I haul way more lumber & etc. with the old daily van than the truck, it will take 4x8 sheets flat and shut the tailgate.
10' lumber or lengths of pipe can go between the front seats -- easily the most practical vehicle I have ever had.

 

I get that. You had help though, I'm a one man banjo on these kind of projects

The mulch yard is a short drive into town, so not too bad. No mulching is gonna happen this spring/summer though. Too much other crap to do and I got more chainsawing to overgrown shrubbery. Gotta break up the burn pile in smaller bits...

 

I used to haul mulch and the related "to save the delivery charge". As the years have gone by I have realized time (and energy) are more valuable than money sometimes. Older and smarter go together sometimes it seems.

 

me not wanting to pay full price ($349-429), ive been looking for a small Mantis type tiller. Works really good for weeding in garden. Problem is people asking$300 used!found couple on auction site and price bid up over what i want to pay for a used item that i have no idea if it runs!
