Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Pastry Chef? What kind? I did that in my first job, alongside making pasta, pizza, and the occasional burger and taco (they were hurting for business and started adding to the menu...).

 

Drove my wife to work. Now my back up camera stopped working and I lost my license plate.

 

Oh crap!
Hope you are ok.

 

You might notice the new Dodges never do that...

They have a heated tailgate...

To be more comfortable when pushing them off the road...

I am. Thank you.

Got a jolt but that’s about it.

 

That’s some thick trail dust, it must be dry up there

 

To continue the old stereo theme, here’s my relic from 1984. Bought when I was stationed on Okinawa in the marines. I bought the entire Pinoeer system, tuner, amp, dual tape deck and big floor speakers. Over the years all the components have died except the tuner, it’s still going strong. Not that it gets used that often, it’s much easier to just connect my phone to the Bluetooth surround sound system and play exactly what I want to hear instead of what the radio wants to play.

 

Accidents suck, sorry to hear. Be sure to check where the trailer hitch mounts to the frame. Not to worry you, but the hitch often gets pulled down and bends the frame down with it.

 

Looks much like the receiver/ amp my cousin had in the same time period.

 

Helping one of our welder dudes today. Home project; refurbishment of a '70's Warn Winch, and they've made changes to them over the years. He could still get the old style brake pucks but the newer style is less expensive. So modifying brake drum to use new replacement.

 

Concrete poured

 

Thanks @Superdave1.0

 

Last week we all got company mandated tracking devices. We have little handhelds we have to carry around and clock in and out of everything we do. After a week of using them I can confirm it's a pain in the rear. Just let me do my job!

 

If you still have the old components I have heard that going over the circuit boards and just touching a soldering iron to all the soldered connections can restore the functions sometimes. Seems the heat/cold cycle sometimes causes the connections to become loose or have cracks between the board and the components. Will not hurt to try but it would be tedious.

 

Thanks for the suggestion but they are long gone.

 

Think I’ll do some bike mods for today’s project. Going from drop bars to a flat bar to see if it helps my wrists.

 

Only about 4 feet of snow on my patio.



And a 3 foot drift in the front that'll get some snowblower attention once the snow stops.

 

I just took a look at my construction camera.
