Good morning and happy Friday

Morning men, 55 and a steady light rain

Our manager in Kelowna had his AC at home die, was 10 days before he could get a tech with the right parts to fix it show up. Everyone else just wanted $10K to replace it.

Our central air quit working during a triple digit spell with overnites about 85f a couple of years ago. It was late in the afternoon, so picked up a 10k btu window unit (biggest 110v less than 15amp) available at the time.
Traced it to the start/run capacitor in the outside unit. Local parts stores were closed for the day, Grainger had what was needed in stock for about a $15 fix.

Suspected the cap right away as the air was about 20yrs old at the time, it's a known age failure issue.
Now I'll just replace again when it gets to about 15 yo and forget about it.

Hell ya,,, was over 100f for a few days...

We were in Summerland a few years back visiting friends and it was over 100 and was a bad fire year

Kind of blows your mind cause you don't equate those temps with Canada

Good morning.

I'm pretty sure that for those folks, it's called "The Special Olympics".

Steve, @Stump Shot how did your tryout for the track and field long jump turn out? LOL

That would be real special !

I've done saws for the USDA in the past. Fire crews in Prescott National Forest. Now I have the Flagstaff District wanting some MS500s done for felling. I worry about these electronic saws not doing well in 100° weather though....

I blame Al Gore.

All those millions of servers on HIS interwebs creating all that heat

 

[Woodwackr]

Disassembled, cleaned and ready to store for later build...
Thanks, Jacob, J

The 500 of yours that I have runs a lot cooler than the stock one I had. Just opening up the muffler on that saw makes a huge difference.

BC is getting as bad as California on their environmental regulations. Apparently the new refrigerant they require is driving the price up a couple grand.

You cram that many people into the Vancouver area and you create a pretty good clone of the LA sprawl and you are bound to get the same kind of "lets punish the entire state for the foolishness of one area" mentality that punishes the poor guys out in the sticks who didn't create the problem in the first place

Compound that in America by punishing the entire country for problems that urban Kommiefornia created that many parts of the country flat don't have...

CARB compliant gas cans are a prime example

More damn gas is spilled fighting the various stupid Mickey Mouse nozzle contraptions than was ever spilled by a plain old nozzle can

This...

The legislators who approved all of this never had to use a gas can.

[full chizel]

Same here. If I’m running, we’re being shot at and I need more ammo.

^this right here and i’m headed for a rifle

 

[Wonkydonkey]

umm ! I’m 5 pages behind

Btw….


I got the big fat biťch today & my mate got the the other 2

 

[Czed]

@Czed where did you purchase super amazing handle?

That handle does the trick i can easily start that 288 now it's very comfortable.
I emailed that diamondgrip company about just buying several of those handles alone
I have several hundred ft of trueblue
They sell the rope with the handles only
If i can I'll get one for that 266 you ported.

I blame Al Gore.

I blame @JoeDirt and his dad. No matter the issue I'm blaming them.
