Yea that ain’t no *s-word! I actually listen to AM radio stations myself where I can listen to some good music other than classic rock from time to time

If your ever close enough to Topeka 106.9

I saw Jett in concert twenty-some years ago. I like Hank and Hank 3 a lot, used to be a Hank 3 fanatic, not so much now, because the Queen doesn't care much for his rebellious ways, being the sane, stable person she is.

I spent an hour in a mosh pit at age 55, with my then 16 year old stepson at this show. Banged a lot, didn't fall down once, even managed to hold on to my beer. Those days are in the past, as are the Harley hijinks. I had a pretty wild mid-life adolescence, and am grateful to have survived it relatively intact.

Morning fellas. Kind of a bittersweet day. Today is officially my last day in the family business. My new job at the local power plant starts Monday. Excited for the change!

I think this is the choice for trailer toolboxes. This and a three footer across the front rail. Pricey but seems the best choice overall.

Did you try your local craigslist. Maybe able to find one for less

That's a funny looking AF.

That's a funny looking AF.

That is a redneck duct tape configuration. Considered legitimate in 34 states.

That saw looks very nice and clean. I like the coil wire configuration. Looks simple and functional. Cleaner setup than der Über Alles.

 

[67L36Driver]

I simply used the old AF w/tape to plug the intake. New one on hand.[emoji108]

Being mindful of the muffler outlet when squirting warm water from the hose solved the outlet problem. Lay it on its right side to drain.

Clean up to external gingerbread tomorrow.

Yes it is.

Pretty good outing tonight for the first track meet of the year.
Levi went to the McDonald County invitational.
Set the meet record in the javelin and the discus tonight.

What does "dipping" involve? Do you have some magic cleaning concoction?

I've listened to Hank III a bit as well. Never did understand what the falling out was between He and Bocephus though.

Too bad you aren't any closer to me (NW Arkansas). I just scored 7 used under-body or flatbed mount toolboxes like you were considering.

2 - 13" x 16" x 96" - two compartment, locking, steel, white
2- 13" x 16" x 96" - two compartment, locking, steel, black
1 - 22" x 24" x 92" - two compartment, locking, steel, black
2 - 16" x 18" x 24" - single compartment, locking, steel, black

The white ones are a little rough and will need some TLC but are serviceable. All of the black ones are in good condition and could use some paint, but no big dents or other damage. They will all need some new sealing material but that's cheap and easy. No keys of course, but all the doors work and most of them have the drip edge along the top to keep some of the rain out.

Like this (but not as pretty)



I was digging through some scrap material that was going to the recyclers when I spotted them. I really just wanted one set to use on the trailer I built last year. I was able to make a package deal on the lot and now I've got to figure out what I'm going to do with all of 'em.

One man's junk = another man's score!

Typical field strip and dig off the heavy crud. Parts brush and mineral spirits wash down. Finish up with a soak of O’Reilleys foaming engine degreaser. Blast with hot water from the garden hose to finish.

I just wish the driveway and water heater were closer together. It’s a long run/pressure drop.

 

[67L36Driver]

What I’d really like to have is a discarded dishwasher. Set it on casters in the garage I would. [emoji108]

The important thing is to finish disassembly or run it as soon as possible. Some moisture will always find a way inside the engine guts. [emoji90]

Good morning!
