So what did you do today?

[Evanrude]

Today I got a basketcase 460 running which had bad crank bearings, scored piston and a bunch of shoddy "fixes" that's been in a box on the floor for 5 years. Felt good to get back into it. Been away from the saw game for 6 years or so. Ready to dive back in.

Notice the change of scenery between the first and second photo? Yeah I split the cases 4 years ago at a different house

Welcome back !!!!

Thank you, sir. I always enjoy running those saws you fondled for me back when. Hope you're doing well!

This crank has been in my freezer, well two freezers now, since I bought the bearings after splitting the case. They'll be alright

I like it. I got this thing as a Christmas gift, so I'll give it a shot. But the zip tie seems to work pretty good haha

I’d break anything nice

I got 15 concrete posts into the ground for the basis of a new firewood rack (it was too dark to get a picture of them all set into the ground).



The auger sure made this job easier than using the hand drill would have been.


28" deep

The rack layout I established yesterday.

It looks warm there. What is your temperature?

 

[Wilhelm]

For about a week & a half it has been just shy of freezing in the morning and top out at 16°C during the day.
Dry, sunny, occasionally windy.
