    just what type of leak are you unable to fix?

    Because a lack of parts? Access to the leak location?

    You have no water at All?

    Growing up with livestock water is mandatory I have never not been able to get things patched enough to fix the problem till major work is going to be done.

    I always loved being around creeks and water falls.

    I had given some thought to having a creek flow through the shop .

    Back at home and Inglorious Basterds is on, got my night set up.

    -Florida summers are hot. Disney was a ton of fun for my little girl.

    - Fun fact Cumberland Falls is the only place in the Western hemisphere where you can see a moonbow. The only other place in the world is Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe/Zambia.

    Installed a trailer hitch, brake controller and wiring on my brother in law's Ford Escape today. He bought a used hitch and 7 pin plug, got the brake controller from one place and the install hardware wiring module and assorted bits from a third place. o_O. The Escape is tight for doing anything I had to do, laying on my back under the driver's dash was especially not much fun.

    In the end, it went ok, I didn't break anything (important), didn't lose anything (I cared about), and didn't throw anything (in anger). Understandably, my BIL left happy. I don't know what he paid for all the parts, but he said the lowest quote he got to supply and install everything was $1,500. I got to keep the bit of left over wire and hardware, but probably didn't break even from the stuff I used from my own inventory. :rofl:

    Prolly could have done that too on the table saw. A couple stops and poof. Nothing a dado can’t remedy.
