Afternoon All. Twas a good day to work from home. Spent much of the afternoon on the phone with a contractor who picked up 9 made to order specialty sign lights yesterday (after waiting patiently for them to show up, we started this job still had snow on the ground).

We ordered the right ones but none of the in place triple checks in place noticed that someone entered my order for black fixtures as bronze. Nothing like calling your customer to let them know their job will finally be done and then...

I likely would have lost my *s-word on a couple of people if I had been in the office for not catching the mistake.

Already frustrated so might as well go golfing for the first time in a couple of years...

Don’t blame it on those little office paperweights…you’re ultimately responsible for your order.

Now go shoot that 120, 18-hole round. Lol

I’m not a fan boy of any make or model of anything. Guns, saws, trucks, you name it, i don’t care what name is on it, i like what i like. I’ve had ford, ram, and chevy/gmc and they all did what they were supposed to do. Currently i have a 2019 Sierra 2500HD with a Duramax and Allison trans. Flame me:firedevil:
I drive what I like too. GFY bisch.

afternoon Tom I’m ok coffee time how’s you

I needed some 2x10x20 for my trailer and white pine was 15 bucks more per board than yellow pine
Which is what treated wood is but I’m not a fan of the treating they do anymore
The new system they use is pretty much a coloring without the chemicals for treating
Up here there are two types of treated lumber. The lesser type for anything not in contact with the ground then the dark green stuff that can be buried or setting on the ground.

Evenin anal beaders and extreme fan bois of brands. This hell of a two week stretch is almost over. 10 scheduled Saturday too but the weather is supposed to break tomorrow so I'll be able to venture away from fans in between breakdowns(the Japanese call them chokotei(s)) to throw around some GFYs.

That was to get me saws to work/learn on more than anything else. I did a self imposed apprenticeship to learn the trade, transparent to Randy and some other porters round here. I dotted the i later becoming two stroke certified.
Doesn't matter some think I stole and hacked my way in anyway.
I'll let the countless pile of saws out there running speak for me.

And you hit me up for the free upgrade you learned along the way. Can't beat that!
I appreciate it.

6 hrs of nite 2 left. All is calm.

Zip up boots? My kid has some of those.

Lol just a matter of time before you have a 1uz swapped surf. Oh and GFY.
I know where a 2uz is.......

Got called out to floor because one of the machines burned the belt off the pulp mill. Found the sheaves were misaligned by ~3/16”….now to figure out which sheave moved and why….always something going on here :). View attachment 303576

Pulp mill? For paper?

Some cats out this way just used a home brew to treat the wood they milled for their trailer.

Both have a 95% chance of being laid by a Mexican.

I raffed.
