Look at this crap I got this morning. Chainsaw races from hedge fest 2018 got flagged for age restriction. I’m completely at a loss? Just a bunch of snowflakes is all we got in this world!

I'm not a tech guru, but I wonder how much of this stuff is flagged manually, due to numerous complaints, VS the algorithm flagging it for whatever reason. That said, yes, people are becoming softer and softer by the day it seems.

Morning fellas! Talking 50 mph winds this weekend. Dang!

We are about 25-35 mph sustained with gusts that will blow away anyone under 100 lbs. Thankfully, I've got the weight limit covered by 180 pounds. Was the same way yesterday and looks like tomorrow will follow suit. We've been lucking out weather wise, so I guess this is the toll we have to pay.

Got it done.
He is going to add some more strut clamps next week to better support the pumps.

It looks good. Does the system have a expansion/pressure tank ? It’s been several years since I was around an installation but it seems like the older systems included a expansion /pressure tank.

No.
The boiler is vented to the atmosphere, so it is a non-pressurized system.

The 026 was weak in the knees at first. I had to nurse it thru the first couple of cuts. It got stronger and stronger with each cut.

Ring seating was more noticeable than any other saw I’ve built. [emoji15]

What should be a simple brake job has got me stumped. Aggravating because I've done numerous brake jobs in the past with no problems. 1990 F250 4x4. The rear drum wont go over the new shoes unless forced. I knew better than to force it but did it anyway. Get it up to 20mph and put in neutral and the excessive drag from that one drum brings it to a halt in 50 feet or so. The parking brake cable isnt sticking, drum isnt out-of-round, the ratcheting adjuster is threaded as short as it will go. Am I missing something obvious or could the new pads be too thick? The new ratcheting adjuster matches the old one. Somehow, I think the answer has something to do with that adjuster....
