    I've come up with a few on-the-fly fixes to keep things rolling already

    yeah, usually get weekends, sometimes there's something pressing to do on saturday.. it's just the last couple weekends I was down at the coast and was really busy with my own stuff so I didn't exactly rest.. This weekend has been a lazy one!

    I've moved, and I have a real job (still no haircut)

    I mean the work and hours are kicking the crap out of me, but it's interesting work, I'm pretty much never doing the same thing twice, or at least not in quick succession... It's been winter tire season here so I've been mounting a lot of studded winter tires on the trucks. There's always...

    I've moved, and I have a real job (still no haircut)

    So here I was thinking I'd slowly dip my toes into gettting back into working full time.. So far every week has been over 50 hours

    I've moved, and I have a real job (still no haircut)

    I've done quite a few diffs now in my 1 tons.. they certainly take some getting used to.. I have a yellow paste instead of prussian blue.. much less messy.. Setting the pinion depth is harder than the backlash IMHO.. though these Dana 80 diffs are a PITA since they're set with shims behind the...

    I've moved, and I have a real job (still no haircut)

    Yes, I do watch them.. I don't have the equipment needed to do full cylinder rebuilds like they do though.. a couple other amazing channels on youtube that do that kind of stuff are Abom79, Bcbloc02, and Western truck and tractor repair.. It's a bit hard for me to do videos of my work, but...

    I've moved, and I have a real job (still no haircut)

    Well, I've moved my arse into town.. Got myself a well winterized camper trailer, full hookups on a farm thats about 1 minute away from my work... Yup, I got a real job turning wrenches on logging equipment.. My friend who's a contractor "hired" me, though he has no official say in the hiring...

    Pocket Knife Poll

    6061T6 aluminum is "aircraft grade".. which is what pretty much any non-cast aluminum is.. it's the absolute run-of-the-mill stuff.. I'd much rather have a MARINE grade aluminum (I think 5454?) that's much more corrosion resistant I put a coat of bluing on that little knife and sharpened it...

    Knee Replacement Tips

    for my neighbor that's not what he has, he can kneel on it fine, he can kneel on a nail and not feel it, which is going to cause damage..

    Knee Replacement Tips

    friend of mine is a house builder, he says exactly the same thing, do the physio, and if you have to kneel, always have kneepads because you've lost feeling in the knee and won't know when something ought to hurt He had one done, then the other, both times he walked into the clinic in the...

    Your favourite rainy weekend day blockbuster to watch?

    the "Failure is not an option" was never said at the time, it was said later during an interview. Western TV series? Old? you mean F-troop? LOL A more recent one that unfortunately didn't get finished was Deadwood.. I really liked that one, great character development in it. The Ranch was...

    Your favourite rainy weekend day blockbuster to watch?

    If were going to talk about TV shows.. Hill street blues/NYPD blue.. I like them both for different reasons, character development in HSB was amazing Sopranos The Wire House MD Harry's Law (2 season series, really good) McHale's navy And the absolute best series, especially if you're sick...
