Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

I Rarely talk to anyone on phone anymore. Only text a few people and not daily. I dont really need anything from any friends

 

My best bud since Jr. High and I text every Friday and more often as needed. We’ve done this since the pandemic. Doesn’t matter who texts first, we always respond. I value his and his family’s friendship that’s endured for decades.

He’s out in CA but distance doesn’t matter.

 

Here's a slightly different "twist" ...

 

I text my best friend (my wife) daily. It's the main way we communicate while I'm at work.

Barring that, I do have a pretty good friend that I text...mmm, probably weekly on average. We just went for beers and to smoke a cigar last week and had a wonderful 4 hours shooting the shit. Going to a heavy metal concert with him next month. Other than that, it's either business related or my Grandpa.

 

I'm curious which show..

 

You have hidden poetic talent

 

Praying for your wife’s foot speedy healing

 

Time changes, people’s schedule changes, people’s livelihoods change...., I understand all that as it is what it is. And my excuse for my silence is because I might say things that causes a big mess and I often not capable of mending it up

 

Got an email late today that my boss needs me to do a survey of the new building to document various things in the labs, which is going to suck.

Then I go out to my truck to leave and it wouldn't start... As I'm sitting there watching all of my co-workers leave. Thanks for having my back, guys.

 

Cant trust anyone haha, my wife laughs at all the stuff I carry for breakdowns etc... until we need it

 

Thought I’d share this with you wrenchy’s.
Friend bought this Klein wrench set on sale at Lowe’s and first use
Dunno if this is a fluke or a bad batch but this isn’t like Klein. Looks suspiciously like Chineseum flu to me from an American made company

 

Pick up a Noco Boost GB40 and keep it in the truck. I bought one for $100. Better than waiting for AAA imo.

$100 NOCO Boost Plus GB40 1000A UltraSafe Car Battery Jump Starter, 12V Jump Starter Battery Pack, Battery Booster, Jump Box, Portable Charger and Jumper Cables for 6.0L Gasoline and 3.0L Diesel Engines

Even Snap-on tools have their tools made from that region of the world, I wouldn’t have any doubt that Klein tools be that much of an exception.

 

keep it charged tho....

 

Worked on it 2 or 3 different times, probably 30-40 minutes total. We paid $6 for it, so I wasn’t gonna go all in and spend hours on it. The buffing wheels chucked in a drill and the liquid polish helped!

 

Lime green!

 

Yep! I concur.

 

Well worth the time and effort!

 

I have a similar device I bought from Costco a few years ago but have never used it. Charged it up yesterday and got me home today.

That new battery can't come fast enough. Here's hoping that's all that's wrong with the truck.

 

I bought a new 24F AGM Everstart from Wally World today for my 2017.
