This past week I have seen Fox News take an about face, they seem to no longer be a republican ish news agency.

I have had multiple error on Parler yesterday and today. I assume a flood of people causing the system to crap down both legs but all in all

No pics, but by the time I got home with the pure gas, the hundred gallon tank only had 99 in it.
A flippin weld cracked about in the middle of the tank.
We huried to the shop to grab a forklift and some beeswax to stop the leak. Pressure washed the back of my buddies truck, headed to AZone for tank epoxy (don't get it on your hands!),
loaded it in my truck, hauled it home to dump 30 gallons in the toy hauler and realized the nozzle was too big on the transfer pump.
So, yesterday I carved out the fill tube on the trailer and while trying to remove it (no small task) I found the filler hose kinked. Fixed it somewhat better, then added fuel to find out the plastic tank is cracked. Wasn't cracked 6 months ago. F*****""*********trailers*****toys****trucks*****........!!!

So now I have 97 gallons.

That would be like asking if a rock knows it can’t float.

A brain is needed before realization can happen.

Just so everyone knows this logic works for new trucks too. You see the wife and I were at a stale mate, she gets one vote and so do I. Then unexpectedly 130k absentee votes came in during the night and side with me. We’re getting a new truck now!

It was a joke Dave, I still have excursion and as of this week no current vehicle builds until after first of the year (on purpose) just small axle jobs. So 2010 fummins is a go, probably grab the flat bed a bought a d start freshening it up bottom side first then mount it.

Jokes aside that’s about the same as my plan, relax for a few months with kids and hopefully car prices come down and then pick up a lots newer duramax and commute that to work in saltlake

Got this pic on my cell cam at the shop. Just spent a couple hours building a dam to keep from flooding the shop. Guess a large main broke just after I left to go home...the street is 30 feet or so wide and it's flowing pretty good. My land is about 6" lower than the street.
Oh well, needed to get rid of the dust anyway. Free water!

Ken, if it makes you feel any better I dumped a good 5 gallons of gas all over my shop floor today from that wagoneer I was parting out. Floor is now clean of any oil or grease, down side it was 30 degrees out and having the door open to air it out was not much fun......

JR · « **Reply #13517 on:** November 09, 2020, 11:24:24 PM »

Ken, looks like you need a drain in there somewhere. Dam is working OK though.

Too bad all those trenches aren’t still open - that would sort of help it drain.

2x4 1/8 wall square tubing and 2x2 1/8 angle. Two 24ft sticks of 2x4 and two 20ft sticks of 2x2 angle.

Uprights are 70 and 74 inches. Short cross pieces are 14 inches. Long cross pieces are 10ft

Angle pieces sloping front to back are 42 inches and the long angle pieces supporting the roof are 11ft 10” since R panel comes in 3ft widths. I use 4 pieces of R panel 48 inches long to attach to the top.

I haven't had it (I think) but a lot of folks around me have.
I have been taking 5000IU of Vitamin D3 a day and eat a 500IU vitamin C in the morn and before sleepy time and my doc thinks that is likely why I haven't gotten sick much.
It may also explain why I continue to get better looking almost every day!

Been working in the shop. Getting the drill ready for spring. Got it done but the door on the shop is covered in ice and the opener work so we went home.
We did break quarantine this moring. Ive been looking for a built in fridge for a semi that runs on 12 volt. My peterbilt had a one in it that worked awesome. They are several hundred dollars used. I got a call last night from a mechanic friend of mine. He said he found me one. Come get it for free. But. I have to take the whole sleeper.
Anyway, I want to put that fridge in the cubby in my camper. Hook it to the batteries for a beer fridge.

Friend of mine is having his first child and while I don’t mind a cigarette now and again I have never tried a “real” cigar. So I stopped at the local old man smoke shop and asked to be educated on the ins and out what’s and so forth.

Brought home two types of cigars to celebrate on this occasion with him as he becomes no so much just a man but a father
