The Lair

yep my hands are sore today, cant imagine doing this for a living....probably if i had a better grinder and a nice grind stone it would have gone faster than the typical home depot disks

 

Did you do it all with cutting wheels and flap discs? I feel like with a plasma cutter and some 40 grit discs it wouldn't be so bad. I'm sure the pros have it down to a science

 

cut the big bits off with a acetylene torch and used a typical store bought dewalt disk. a 40 grit or even a 60 disk would have made a little faster work.

 

Great job Lloyd!!!

 

Morning Lairites. My whole building is down so no internet and nothing to do. I have shitty phone service only.

 

How in the hell do you not have a backup geni? Are you so top secret they can't chance it?

 

You are a stud buddy!

 

ALWAYS prep! You can never tell whether the strength or path changes.

 

One thing I have found about storm prep is that nothing (money spent or effort) goes to waste even if the storm passes with no ill effect.

Extra water, fuel, food, etc will always be consumed after the storm passes.

And clearing storm drains around the area of the house, clearing gutters, checking trees for possible branch falls, storing or tying down outdoor furniture, checking generator for fuel and quick starting, are all shit that we should be doing anyway.

Checking vehicles and emergency contents, filling gas tank/fluids is just routine stuff for us.

I’m suspecting TW members are gonna be better prepared than most.

 

We just got upgraded to a higher condition of military weather readiness. Theres a chance of us shutting down and evacuating. I live on an island too... so I'm ready to head to NOVA at a moments notice. The nurse already told me to come stay with her.

 

Sounds very serious. Never dick around with Mother Nature!!! Go to the Nurses NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take your toothbrush and a pair of clean underwear.

 

I'm doublewrapping this weekend. I know way too many hurricane babies.

 

Nice job. That's a crap ton of climbing.

Hey, in case shit gets real, real soon, you guys be safe down there Skip!!!

 

It is if you're going 63s and 14"

 

I'm not worried about it been through 100s of them and dealt with the beach house and repairs enough that we got it down to a science. I'm somewhat of a prepper so I've got my stuff handled. Yesterday the beach house got boarded up and prepped. Went down in the afternoon and met my folks down there got home around 3 am. GTG on this front.
