Izzat a compound compressor head???

 

From their website:

"The CAT-8010 Air Compressor has a Oil-Free Dual Piston pump"

 

Sounds like too many Chiefs and not enough Indians.

 

Not a fan of oil-less compressors; I guess that's just a cross-over to facilitate higher volume.

 

Around here, the trash service is like the mob.... if they can't get to our dumpsters in the back.... they just leave and will be back next week.

 

I don't use them enough to even have an opinion one way or the other. My current one is oil-less and has been a decent little compressor for 20+ years.

The garbage truck driver is a campus employee so I have no problems throwing something together to see if we can make his job easier. This one isn't looking good, though.

Which means we're 100% going to do it!

 

We had to switch parking around because they refuse to come after 8 a.m.
There are only 2 or 3 trash service companies here, they contracted by the city and allocated certain areas. So, you only really get a choice of 1 company.

 

Best wishes to your son and your family

Please give us a positive update when you get a chance.

 

Fair, if all you're doing is filling the odd tire, blowing a bit of dust here and there, or occasionally using a nailer or impact gun they're fine.

I hope everything is going well, too young to have to be dealing with stuff like that! But glad we live in an age where options like that are available to help with his condition!


Afternoon Shane & crew!
Since you all love grease gun conversation so much, got the red n tacky loaded up and put on my new lock n lube complements of @six5crèéd!
Oil change before taking it to have the tires balanced and rotated.

Trimmed up the brisket this morning without incident, but ended up with a nice deep slice to my thumb with my freshly sharpened knife while cleaning it up!

 

Turns out the bosses mower is running fine but the deck is jumping around like crazy. Took it out from under the mower and found this bracket with two pulleys has come unstowed.




Also figured out where the sparks were coming from he saw lastnight while trying to mow.



Scraped 3 dust pans of grass from off the top and underneath.



And need to sharpen these where he uses it to make big rocks into little rocks.

 

That is precisely what I use it for.

 

looks like it needed some much needed attention!

 

Don't we all?

 

Yes it does, bad thing is those blades were new and just installed about a month ago

 

Can we get a siding update from @Cole?

 

Sometimes I think those who tell us what to do don't have enough to do.
Edit: Don't miss that BS at all.

 

That poor mower.
