Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

A taped copper fitting in bronze should turn out okay, you can cut it off and tap a socket on there too if needed.

 

I'm hoping so. Although the mouthbreather that installed that fitting galled the flats with a pipe wrench so no socket of mine will even attempt that. Mr. Ridged pipe wrench will be putting in work

 

A flat file, impact socket and hammer will get it on there.

 

It might be easier and quicker to cut here (at the red lines), and replace it all.

 

If you seen the hodge podge plumbing coming from the 1" galvanized into the house you'd realize that's a rabbit hole I don't want to go down. It's pretty abhorrent

 

Goes from 1" galvanized to the check valve, reduced to 3/4" copper, steps back up goes into a 1" brass tee for the pump switch, reduces back into 3/4" into the tank

 

I guess that was the pipe and fittings they had on hand.

 

Joe's Uncle Brother's Plumbing kind of stuff

 

Good morning guys, have a great Friday!

@Delta09 Adam, I hope the plumbing gods are on your side. If not, get the big hammer and torch out!

 

Good Friday morning friends! Hope you all have a wonderful day

 

Fuck Ya Friday

 

Yeah there’s a reason the people they are getting them from now charge $60 each.


Boss just called to check on things and I told him I was making a sample. He said how’s that going? I said it sucks. He said will it speed things up to do 60? I said no, it’ll take 60 times as long

 

Got this buttoned up yesterday. This frame holds it on the trailer until they take the tank off the side by side and need to put a patient on it.














Cole ask about it, I said this is what it’s for.

 

Have a package that UPS had, was supposed to be here today.

They handed it off to USPS, now it says Monday.

Wonder which Monday it'll be

 

I picked this guy/girl out of the middle of the road this morning on my way to work. I am not sure if it was hit or not but a truck with high clearance went over the top of it before I could grab it. Other vehicles went around it. I took it to the local PD and asked for the animal control officer, who had been dispatched to take care of the same bird I had grabbed. The ACO came back to the station, crated the bird and was taking it to a bird rescue group.

 

I went to bed at 9:00 last night but was awake from 1:00 to 3:30. At least they're keeping me running enough so I can't doze off.

 

I didn’t sleep good last night either, hopefully tonight’s the night!
