I have to go back to work next week, since I'm an essential federal public safety person (I was on 14 day quarantine after coming back from overseas a couple weeks ago), but yesterday, I decided to stop playing Forza and build a new welding cart to consolidate my 3 machines.

Very nice! I need to do that exact same thing. One footprint for the machines. What type of welders do you have? I have a Millermatic 211, Eastwood TIG and plasma cutter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
I decided to take up still photography as a hobby. 2 months ago I ordered this camera. It was delivered due to the over and beyond the call of duty efforts of the Leica sales rep. My thanks to her! I'm told that the production line is still shut down, and the factory itself is now shut down also. This was one of if not THE LAST SL2 out of the factory before the shut down. Now, to learn all of the software menus and get used to it !!

Last night I found out the waste line is stopped up at the kitchen I believe. I'll be out there with my 100' snake cleaning it out in a minute. I won't be posting pictures of it. :(

Planning to brew about 20 gallons of beer this week! When life hands you lemons... make a lemon shandy I always say.

One of my regular routine maintenance items, change the brake fluid. I change it every single spring for the last 25 years of ownership. I will use my last can of ATE Blue. :( And one "while I am in there" additional part is the change the 10 year old rubber brake lines. They are looking fine, and I have no problems with the brakes at all, but 10 years is long enough. So new rubber hoses, and new brake fluid. Whoo Hooo. |
You could probably get $100 for that last can of ATE Blue!:D

My latest, bringing my 2008 F250 into the modern age. Also added four Infinity Kappa 6x8 speakers you replace the blown factory ones and a backup camera. So nice!

Matt,
Did your truck have the backup camera in the rear view mirror? My truck does/did.. I tied into it for the Kenwood head unit I installed and I'm not happy with the picture clarity. I'm wondering if I should try a different camera? |
No I didn’t have an OEM camera, backing was treacherous to say the least. I used this one from Crutchfield, it looks OEM and the picture quality is excellent.

Make sure you maintain "Social Distancing" in that hot tub..... ;)

Once the car in in the air, and the wheels are off, it does not take long to swap out the fluid with the vacuum system I have. It takes longer to clean up that capture system, and put the wheels back on, and get everything torqued to 95 Lb/Ft and the tools put away. I took it on a short test drive and all is perfect. |
I'm finishing up some house remodeling projects that were started when we moved in 2 years ago. I had a contractor (who was also the realtor who sold us the house) do some work, including installing 60" pocket doors where a 36" swinging door had been. At one point I owed him something like $300 and he said, "I'll pass on that 300 if I don't have to come out here and trim out this room." Sounded good to me.
Wrong http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1585516222.jpg Once I got into the project I discovered why he wanted out. When the doors are centered in the track the one of the left leaves a 2" gap. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1585516222.jpg Even after adding a 3/4" filler the left door doesn't fit the hole. I'm going to have to fudge the right hand door to move both doors left and add 3/4" of fill to the right hand door. When I close it up it looks like it will JUST fit. What a PITA. |
