Late start today, stayed up late, just surfing the web. Worked on my miter saw, the blade guard was wonky. Just had lunch, going out to measure for some more paver work. Still have some left over, so why not? 😁

up early, now just finished eggs, muffin, and cottage cheese. Trying to get more protein in my diet. Just saw the weather for englewood Florida. That’s where dad is. He has never evacuated, don’t think he will this time. Doesn’t care what I think about that. I will call him in a little bit. 90...

working on my 2nd cup of coffee, it’s 67 and sunny out. Have to go to Home Depot or Lowe’s to find some patio stones, I’m creating a walkway to the barn/ shop. My young neighbor came over and took out a stump, all while I was at a party at our doggy docs. Hope everyone has a good day!

Hi guys, I’ve been away quite awhile. Took me quite a bit to figure out how to log in. It’s going to take me quite some time to catch up here. I hope everyone is ok.

Wow busy group here. Took me a bit to catch up. Went to Menards today, ordered the lumber for finishing out my pole barn. I am scheduling the deliveries, as I don’t want all the material here at once. Talked to mom, they are doing well. Weather here is usual, cold, warm, wet, constantly...

Up @6 this am, off to my wife’s shop, a hour plus snowblower work, then some shoveling, my wife has a few customers today. I can’t wait to get her retired. When I get home, gotta plow snow, blow, shovel some more. Bet nobody, absolutely nobody, has ever done this in Hawaii. �&#56846...

Thanx!

Morning guys. I thought I’d stop in and say hi. I’ve been pretty busy with my parents, and honestly have felt overwhelmed. I’ll try to catch up over the next couple of days. Have a good one!

Hi guys. I’ve taken a break from tbn, but I think I’m back. I am having some issues with my dad, age is getting to him, he wants to argue with everyone. Not a lot of fun.

I think you’re right. If both ends are threaded, he is losing the adjustment to go inwards. Sort of like when you have a top link that is threaded all out or all in on one side.

Drew, did you guys think of reversing the pins on the mower? In other words, put the pins facing inwards?

Busy day today, working with the wife at her shop. Tired, I worked a charity poker tournament last night, didn’t get home until 3 am. Been a long time since I did that! Amazing what people will do, I was surprised at the turnout, and the amount of money wagered. We had a visit from a state...

Wow. If your name brand drugs are coming from China, where do my generics coming from? The mind boggles! ��

As far as I recall, the flatness spec for the oil pan was 50 microns. .002 English. I’d check the flatness first, then figure out what to work on. When they are stamped, the last process is to “spank” that flange. A little stroke to flatten it out. The torque when assembled is controlled...

As far as the cheating scandal, at the end, the kids are the biggest losers. Even if they did great work in college, any accomplishment they make will always be discounted. They will never be considered legitimate. And it adds to the anger of the common folks, that the game is rigged against...
