Not sure who will show up. I would hope some of the other guys will show. If not then I don't know what I'll do. I can't lift heavy stuff like I use to but I can't leave him there with no one to help. I maybe putting myself in a situation I don't want to be in.
Like They always say no good deed goes unpunished.
We will see.

 

Good morning kids, another nice day in the mitten. Bought a new drill and driver yesterday. Time to put it to work on"This Old House ". Play safe everyone.

 

Not sure of the difference between Dewalt, Makita, or the others.
I have Dewalt to be honest for the color. The yellow stands out so I have less of a chance leaving it in a car.

 

Good morning! Coffee is hot, sun is up, going to be a beautiful Sunday. High of 69 degrees predicted in my part of PA. Headed to Church this morning to recharge our batteries, then meeting my Son and his girlfriend for lunch. I love Sundays!

 

They can withstand state employees. Dewalt cant.

 

My work provides me with a DeWalt setup,I really like. The Makita set up has the same batteries as my old rig, so I can still use those. I now have 4 batteries,two chargers.

 

Good morning all. Going to go in today and see if we can't get a lift station pump changed out. Today is supposed to be the coolest day of the week so it's the best day to do anything septic.

 

Doesn't sound like much fun. Hope your spare is the same

 

Morning all...

 

Wow.
I just won some new style (to me) plastic baits.

Of course it's going to be a month before I can use them.
Should be fun to try.

 

I lost my accountant last year to cancer. Fortunately it was in the fall after tax season. He was a good guy and could work the numbers. Then the end of March, my financial advisor had a heart attack and passed on. Another good guy. I found a person for my taxes, but ended up owing the Feds and state and now I hope the people my financial guy worked with are as good as he was.

Hi Dave, I used Turbo Tax for a lot of years until I got audited one year and I had sharpened my pencil too much and got caught. That's when I had to get the CPA to help straighten things out. As I retired, I also thought taxes would be less and easier..boy was I wrong. What we need is a flat tax for EVERYONE. The mathematicians say the gov't. would have no more deficit that way.

Hi Martin, the only way I see anyone keeping it all is to bury it in the back yard or keep it under your mattress

 

Condolences to the wife on the looses of her family members Greg. She is going to need someone to be there for her when she gets home.

 

Dirty job but not so bad if it was plumbed and rigged properly .

 

@ work. (So what else is new)

 

Got groceries done.
Need to touch up a few spots on cabinets.
Put stuff up before rain tomorrow.
And get some sleep during race.

 

We pressure wash everything down before we go hands-on. Then we swap out the unions for cam locks and safety wire the bales. It's already helped with some of them....makes life a whole lot nicer.

 

[QUOTE="robssol, post: 14865782, member: 1 Does that run on 3 phase? Looks good. I would like to get a metal working lathe but I'm too cheap to buy one new.[/QUOTE]
Nope it is a baby 110v it works well not aircraft tolerance but for what I plan on doing and usage it will work fine. This is an older model so everything but the safety gear is metal. Some tweaks for ease of use is all I will do.

Thoughts and prayers for Greg and family.

X2. I'll say some extra prayers for your wife's family today.
