Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

^^^^^
Just what language are you speaking here...

 

Talk all you want my friend, it might help relieve some stress for you and it reminds us how fortunate we are.

Please know y'all are in our thoughts & prayers.

 

I can remember the days when parts were easy to remove/replace

 

The GMC returned today...

Top & sides of frame chipped, wire brushed & primed.

Took off the bumper & hitch, going to clean & paint the hitch too, the bumper is mostly plastic so at least that can't rust too bad.

We have refined the box removal process too.

 

I recall driving on some mtn roads that were just like that, or maybe even a little tighter on the turns. It was a lot of fun for a driving enthusiast. Hopefully they get rebuilt sooooon!

 

Oooo, love me some hairpin turns

Good morning everyone, I hope you have a good day

all you FL folks make it through OK.

 

Good morning shop crew, have a great, safe and blessed Wednesday.

Prayers for the Florida crew.

 

Morning all
Got the call last night mandatory hold over, the house and family all tucked in, now we wait. Land fall around 2-3 am Thursday we are now north of the eye but will be winds up to 50-70.mph.
Every one have a great day
@Hunterdc1 stay safe over there

 

Good morning manly men.

Stay safe out there.

 

I trust my welds, I don't think it would be running perfectly true and turning as fast as it does, would be a tad out of balance and then the guy who didn't want to buy the right part would come back and put the blame on me for it not being correct. Nope was what he got cause some things just aren't worth the headache.

 

Morning crew. Hope everyone in the path of Milton stay safe and be careful.
We have a crisp 40* this morning.
Need to finish up the weed eating today.
Harvested at least 2 bushels of taters yesterday.

 

Good morning friends! Hope you all have a wonderful day


Florida friends

I figured out why my truck ran out of diesel a few months ago. The gauge said it had 1/8th of a tank when it ran out.

I drove it to Charlotte a couple weeks ago and a couple places around home. It was down to 1/4 of a tank.

I had to drive it today to pick up a welding job and when I left the house it said 1/4 tank.

I stopped and filled it up near work for $2.96 a gallon. I put 23.8 gallons in it, it has a 26 gallon tank

 

Good morning folks

 

He needs to get back in here

 

Thoughts and prayers

Days like today make me glad Im in a union. Wind isn't crazy, yet. But Kennedy Space Center is closed, essential personnel only. My brass says ehh wind isn't that bad you need to be at work. Ok got it.

My union book says if base is closed I make base +15.00/hr no ifs ands or buts about it. And I'll remember you calling us essential when we negotiate in 3 years for dang sure.

 

Friend of mine, he and his wife were supposed to fly to Orlando yesterday for the week, they rescheduled until February and hooked to their camper instead
