80 mph is our posted speed in South Dakota. Better be ready when you get to the sign. I'll be in the left lane waving.

Here you go Thomas...

Enjoy your weekend!!!

It’s funny to see all the snow going south. Might have to drive to Missouri to go snowmobiling as we don’t have much here and the trails are crap

Local fuel card-trol for MFA was the culprit. No troubles at the MFA in Sheridan or Maryville MO. or any any of the other MFA’s I used to stop at in MO or AR.

I have to be in a pretty bad way to even think about venturing into a Pilot, Flying J, Loves, TA Petro. Your more apt to get mugged, relieved of your fuel, tire chains or anything else not securely fastened down or locked up and more likely to get into an accident than in rush hour icy conditions at those chit holes than any other place. Plus their fuel prices are higher. Flying J in Emporia KS was always $.20 gallon higher than fuel just around the corner @ Phillips 66.

I know how you feel, Coby.
And the way things are in this world scares me.

Yep... weird stuff at all levels

Say you need a valve spring compression tool for a gen 3 Hemi? Not a problem. Few hours on the lathe and mill and good to go.

And a factory made one we used for a pattern.

We made some progress on the packaging machine on Monday.
Here is a video of the packet making process with everything but the filler.
Today's project is to work on getting the weighing and filling process figured out.

Yup.
Already figured that out...

We got the 14 head weigher running today and packing rice (as a test).
We were packing 5 grams with an accuracy of about .2 grams.
All was well until the web broke.
Got to looking and the encoder coupler had broke in two because they used a plastic coupler and had nearly 1/16" misalignment (parallel)...
Poor workmanship, and some low quality components, mixed in with some very nice components.
It could be a nice machine, but you have to go all the way with it. They stopped short...

Got dad's 55 husqvarna done , damn EPA carbs..
