The reclaimed water from your Orchids will be nutrient rich. I'll bet any plantings around the house would enjoy it or, stash it in a bucket and use it on the Orchids again later maybe

I worked on the E46 today. Connected the oil pressure sending unit, painted the rear seat shelf flat black to reduce glare in the window, removed the panel between the trunk and the cabin, install the M3 baffle in the fuel tank.

This took far longer than I should admit.
The wife bought a Cricut. Hasn't used it in at least a year. How hard could it be, right? An hour and a half later, one decal. How much does it cost to just have these printed? I've got a bunch more to do. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1662406666.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1662406666.jpg |

Do you really need the wings? That's a lot of power on a light craft. Enjoy. Les |
Check out the Lockwood aviation videos on YouTube... it's a serious performer. The designer performs single engine take offs at pretty impressive climb rate. The initial requirement was for safe long range engine out performance.

My wife decided we need to "deep clean" the house. Pull the furniture and appliances out and clean behind and under them. Take all the stuff off of shelves, dust each piece, and clean the shelves. The ceiling fans have to have the light fixtures removed, and cleaned.
I "get" to help. One real challenge came when in the living room with the 12 foot ceilings. The light fixture has a ceramic ring, and it screws down onto the light bulb fixture, on the outside of the bulb fixture. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1662995920.jpg Of course, first remove the bulb, then just unscrew the ring. Yea, right. The ring and the bulb fixture are both ceramic. They kinda grab each other, and much like unscrewing a light bulb that has been in place for years, it grinds and has friction and it is a challenge to get my fingertips on the ring to get it off. Even harder is threading it back on straight, while holding the glass decorative light fixture in place as I try to screw the ring back on. I did get some silicone "bulb grease" for the threads to help make it easier. Two went back on with no major problems. The last one grabbed and was like it was superglued in place. I could not get it to release, to get a it going back on right. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1662995920.jpg Out to the garage it make a Glen special tool P-901-911-01 tool. I dug in my plumbing supplies and found a 1 & 1/4 inch slip fix connector, and it was pretty close. I had to cut the slots for the raised parts with my Dremel, and then sand down the inside of the fitting, with the a sanding wheel on the Dremel. Just sand it, and test fit until the rig fit nice and tight into the tool. I figured that would make getting the crooked ring off easy. Nope. I had to get a 12 inch piece of PVC to make the handle longer, and hold the back of the bulb, and push hard, and remove it. I would never have been able to remove it, and then thread it back on straight. My special tool makes it pretty straight forward. Now just 4 more ceiling fans to take apart and put back together. Golly it is fun! |
Made a little thing to hold a few bits and bobs I frequently use at the bench.
Now I can get some stuff done! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1663284223.jpg |
Today, I got a "Round Tuit", so I changed the oil, oil filter and spark plugs in my home standby generator.
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1663290106.jpg Saturday, I'll do a spark plug change on my 2017 F250. I did not know it was 2 plugs per cylinder! |

Odds and ends at Mom's house while she's away including repairs to two sprinkler heads whose nozzles were damaged and needed replacing.
With this handy Rainbird plier tool, it's very simple. Run irrigation and clamp tool onto sprinkler neck while extended. Turn off irrigation. Replace nozzle. Turn irrigation back on and adjust as needed. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1663412990.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1663412990.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1663412990.JPG |
