The drive pulley is mounted behind the prop along with the ring gear for the starter. It has to come off along with the propeller to get the nose bowl off.

today I'm afraid will be four hours of very boring driving, down and across Wyoming and there just isn't much here, to the point where I'm stopping at a fancy truck stop this afternoon.
did you know Wyoming only has 561,000 people in the entire state?
the least number of any state in US.
tomorrow I head for Heber City, outside of Salt Lake City, to stay for 2 days. Then the final push into CA and arrive at Marin Co on Monday.
Gosh there is some cold weather before then. Night temps for next several nights are in the 30's.
pretty sure my a/c thermostat is unhappy, constantly fight with it, ordered a replacement to arrive at sisters. Should be an easy three wire hookup. Only way a/c wants to come on is if I turn on heat first. ??
some logic circuit is off. And then when it reaches goal temp, and turns off, won't turn back on while on auto. For 35 bucks, worth trying to change out thermostat. It's a dometic a/c, considered top quality, but then I see Amazon sold over 500 replacement dometic thermostats last month. Really?...

Good Morning
56° with a high of 77 under clear skies, another dry day.
Yesterday was a busy one, I’ve been starting every day with rotating the mantle and checking its weight. I use the chain hoist to rotate it, so it’s easy to get the weight off the hoist scale. So far it’s lost 40lbs, and moisture % has gone from middle 20’s down to low teens. Checking has been minimal, but enough to add character. It is staying straight and not twisting. I’m impressed with how well having the floor dryer fan on it is drying it up.
I cut up a batch of sandblast mask for the Rockman while the grass dried off, then hooked up the progressive mower and mowed all the open areas. After that was done, swapped the Progressive for the 90” Landpride and mowed inside the pastures. Dropped the Landpride, and hopped on the Lazer to mow the inside of the fence lines. That pretty much killed the day, didn’t get to the hanger.
While I was busy, there was lots happening on and in the old folks home.
Stone is almost completely in place and ready for pointing.
The doors and windows in the Great Room are trimmed
The shower is all grouted
Everyone will be back today, it’s great to see progress that doesn’t involve me. It’s a novelty, but I have to say that I can get used to it.
My day is going to start with rotating the mantle, then breakfast with the professor. Then hopefully on to the little plane if the old folks home or string trimmer doesn’t suck me in.

Popgadget's mantle is going to be a work of art when it's done.
The whole house looks nice, stone is very much a local thing.
Plus he gets to keep his shop just the way it is, no having to move
his "stuff" which you usually do for a new home.

Good Morning,
Ct, 55 to start going to 75 ! Another beautiful sunny day on tap for today ! Tomorrow we are heading north for a few days , I’m sure the yard needs mowing but probably won’t mow the fields until later in September or early October !
Paul , old folks home looks beautiful, that shower is super ! Stone work came out terrific!
Plans for today is do some trimming work and then some garage cleanup, of course I always say that and never do it !
Also need to prepare the financial report for the FD concerts 2024 ! Disappointing season with two rain outs and the last concert could have been a real money maker if we had good weather!
Hope all have a good Tuesday!

Good morning, the low is 38 and going to a high of 72°F. Wind N 2 mph. Sunny!
I am afraid this may be summers' last hurrah. We may be in for an early winter. Hope not, I am far from ready.
A 475 C 15 Cat engine with straight pipes and a Jake brake sounds like a machine gun when you drop a full gear to slow down. The bigger diameter of the pipes and deeper the sound (within reason).
8" pipes sound great, but I prefer 6" myself.
Drew, I am glad you got rid of your destructive hitch hiker. Some felines will ride comfortably in a vehicle and will also come when they are called. I had one, but unfortunately he never learned how to look both ways when crossing the street.
Today is gonna be grass cutting day and MAYBE set up the area for the BH platform. I have another little job that I have been putting off for thirty years that I should do as well with some of the scrap from the platform.
Time to check the bank account and see what bills I need to pay. I think there is only one needing payment, the phone bill. They arbitrarily dictated that they were going paperless except for those of us over 65 EXCEPT for me, (78 this month). I keep telling them that I WANT a paper bill and they send me email reminders that they haven't got their money. Then I pay them. I don't like doing business that way and I will NOT EVER give them access to my bank account.
I am expecting a check from American Express. It seems that I over paid them when I closed off the account. They sent me a statement last week. They owe me a whole $0.09, I told them that I wrote it off and they should do the same. It cost them 10 times that to mail me the letter not including the paper, they absolutely gotta keep their accounts straight so they will be sending me a check. lol
Time to get on with my day.
Have a safe day all

Wow there is so much going on here, and so fun to read!
Great pix Drew, keep them coming! Scott congrats on new pup! They are so fun and so much work!
Kyle, lots fires in CA but this one is near our residence in NV. Can't imagine losing our home we built only 4-5 years ago. Yesterday morning was much calmer, this morning I can see flames on the (distant) ridgeline. I could see an orange glow a few nights ago, but this is the first time I've seen it in the morning. I guess there is no such thing as "distant" if you can see flames.
Today is a "red flag warning." Last time that happened the fire really blew up. Tomorrow's forecast is for even stronger winds. We are packed and ready to go and I hope that doesn't happen. Not much I can do but wait.

Best of luck, plowhog. We all are hoping for a positive outcome.
