50° finally.
GM thread wasn’t working on the app, but now that I caught up on the computer, it now working on the app. TBN was down late last night. Seems to be every thread that was updated past where I was, had the issue. Just went to the end of another thread and it now works on the app.

Yesterday's traffic jam was caused by a three car pile up at the top of the Cuesta Grade on north bound 101 north of San Luis Obispo. Happened during a strong downpour, and looked like the two rear cars couldn't slow down fast enough to avoid the first car. While in the stop'n'go traffic leading up to the wreck, the guy in the big pickup truck in front of me entertained himself by doing burnouts on the wet road, getting nearly sideways in the process. Did it three or four times, so it wasn't by accident, even though he nearly caused another one. Clowns like this make me want to quit driving.

66°F and .11 inches rain.

Makani passed the night totally oblivious to what he might have missed sleeping in the wild and rain, no pillow, no nice bed, no bowl of water or food at the ready. What a life.

So I still have my gate post issue. Will continue to look for a solution but I think getting the appropriate size exhaust pipe connector as an insert might win out as I haven’t found any 2in OD pipe.

RS, looking forward to the final before and after pics in side by side look at saw.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Never ever trust fart when your over 60 years of age.

Never trust a fart to be one.

I have the whole episode on video, so not much doubt about who did what. New rule: No contractors on site unless I'm here.

That would really tick me off too.

She is gonna try to drive today for the first time since surgery...

Good luck to her!

44F, overcast and quite windy - out of the NW @ 15 - 25 mph - with a rain shower @ 12:00, heading up to around 49F for the day's high.

Windy days are always a mixed bag: gives a great draft for a fire in the double barrel stove ... but the seal around the overhead door ain't all that great ...

Got the main table cleaned up and the miter slots pretty well cleaned out:

Wire brush in a die grinder worked pretty well for the miter slots (much better than in the drill) ... provided you don't mind it spitting the wires at you as they come loose. (Wire wheel rated for 8,000 rpm, die grinder likely spins @ 20K+ rpm ... )

Even so, there were big chunks of crap that were still coming out as I blew the slots out with the air hose.

Also got the main table mounted and the miter slots squared to the blade.

And the extension wings mounted and leveled with the main table, and several coats of wax applied to the main table:

Plus got the dents pounded out of the door (more or less) for the VFD enclosure and got the door mounted back on the enclosure.

Agenda for today:

Think the hopper feeder may be due for a refill, also one suet feeder.

Tweak the angle indicator on the Unisaw (it's slightly off)

Install gasket/foam seal on VFD enclosure. Plug some holes in the enclosure as well.

See what I can do as far as cobbling up a miter gauge. I got several (in pieces) in that load of parts I got that came from the auction.

Also got about a dozen collet wrenches for routers in that deal too, one size of which is really close to fitting the feet on the mobile base. So modify one of those to fit the feet. (Loctite isn't enough to secure the feet from turning, once they contact the floor and have the resistance of the weight of the saw on them)

Maybe drag the fence rails up from the garage and get those installed.

Clean up in the shop and make some room near the overhead door so the saw can be moved over there. Will move it down to the garage at the house tomorrow with the Kubota once it warms up.

Plus whatever else comes up.

Hope everyone is having a good Thursday ...

"I don't want to share"

Mostly, I hope the assembly line Doctors at the hospital don't hear about your idea or they will be ordering double gurneys. Jeeze they could make twice as much money.
