Good Morning.
64° with a high just about 80 today. Nice bright sun shining.
We got about 1/4” of rain last night from a passing front, heard some thunder, but that was about it.
Yesterday started with breakfast with the professor, we were just about done when I got an email from my camera system showing me that I needed to rush home to meet the truck driver to show him where the septic tank was.
I’m amazed how well that camera system works. It’s just a batch of POE cameras connected to a dedicated PC running $59 Blue Iris software. It’s been rock solid for at least a decade or longer, I’ve had to replace a camera or two over the years, but it’s completely open architecture and I’ve settled on Dahua cameras as being a good balance of price and performance.
After that it was off to the restaurant to hang the condensing unit on the wall for the walk in Freezer. I did the Refrigerator last year. Both were on the roof previously.
They were getting long in the tooth, this was a preemptive replacement, much easier to service here than on the roof.
I cut a piece of 18ga aluminum to make sure that my Kubota excavator bucket ear drawing is correct, if this fits, Then I’ll cut some out or 5/8 or 3/4 steel plate.
The Fusion project for the day was a timing sprocket holder for a Jeep engine. It will hold it while you torque it on to the cam.
Ended up back on the rooftop at the restaurant after dinner, both AC units were off line. Got them both running, changed the filters and went home to call it a day.
Not a lot planned for today, someone is coming over this am for a little machine work on some RC plane wheels, the rest of the day will be what ever pops up.
