San Diego BS Thread.

Yeah, they got evacuations going on there. Someone from work had to leave to help out their family.

 

Never fun when these hot dry winds kick up

 

Damn. I can smell the smoke from Poway

 

We don't see or smell anything here in Escondido/San Marcos

 

Cal Fire said a bit ago they were able to stop the forward spread of the fire and now 15% contained. Sounds like good news.

 

Could see and smell the smoke from RB, now one started up in VC. Both of my routes to the desert are cut off!

 

Smoke is making its way over to San Marcos

 

Wow, looks super nice!! I really need to MAKE time to get it done. However I just got some 12" x 30' I beams for the shop roof, so once thats up I can install lighting etc, and it will be covered which will help crap from blowing into it while its drying! Right now I get a constant onshore breeze all day so it would be peppered with random organic items...
Anyway, back to work for me! Been going at 7 days a week for a bit too long now. But shits getting done on the property and staying busy with trucks so I cant really complain.

 

Yeah I actually took the tractor out to clear the weeds from the side of my house. I have a giant field of weeds that's on the city side and they arent very big on maintenance..
Ah shoot keep forgetting to get those control arms from ya!! I need to get on that, mine are jacked up...
Ill have to go through my PMs and see if I still have your number and figure out how to get together with ya. My truck needs some love before I start with the turbo fabrication, kinda needs to be safe before I add an extra 200hp!
Hope all has been well with you buddy!

 

keep at it, and you know the drill. gotta make time. lights weigh NOTHING. led from Hyperikon (local SD company) like $12/ea...no beams required just a zip tie and surface mount.

/edit: I know beams = roof not just lighting support

 

ask @Shmellmopwho about the lights. he has em too. low profile


https://www.hyperikon.com/products/...d-under-cabinet-light-built-in-on-off-switch/
4000k and really bright. i went over kill.

 

Nice, yeah Ill likely just weld some brackets to the beams (since they are 3/8" thick steel) since drilling them will be a pain, and I found some 4' LEDs from Harbor freight, really cheap and brighter than a 2 tube fluorescent setup with less wattage. Im going to put soo many lights its gonna seem like you're about to meet Jesus, haha..

Edit: those low profile ones you linked would work great in the house.

 

at night, i have started to plan ahead if I'm leaving the garage because it's so bright takes a long time to adjust. ain't got time for that. I should start wearing an eye patch like a sailor. one eye for the bright, one for the shadows.

 

Napkin math says like 44000 lumens... and i need to finish the front half. jfc ya i need to tone that down.

speaking of in the house, i replaced the kitchen florescents bright af and no buzz or flicker!

 

I love mine! Love the fact that you can easily daisy chain them and that they’re so small and light but very bright! Cost friendly too!

 

The old lady and I will be taking a trip to the blue sky center in a couple weeks and we were thinking about Camping overnight in the Angeles National Forest before driving all the way up. Anyone have any campsites worth mentioning? Or anything we should checkout/do/ eat? We’ve never been there so any info is appreciated!

 

Hey guys, still have my 2016 CRF250R (bike only has 20 hours on it) for sale if anyone is interested. I have it up for $4,500 but will entertain low-ball offers. Will come with spare parts and title in hand. PM me for some pictures.
