Pretty good. Reading and research tonight.

And you? Tomorrow off for you is good!!

Doing good. Lot's of stuff to do tomorrow. Of course still cruising the CL to see if I can find a deal to make tomm. LOL

Some reading and research here as well. Have the saw I'm working on that's going to be my sons to had to look up a few things on here. I think by tomorrow I'll be able to have it the rest of the way apart. Made a clutch removal socket tonight and got that off but didn't have a puller for the flywheel. Found a few methods on here and will give them a go in the AM. Be able to see what I'll need in parts and get them ordered up or try to scrounge for them.

Overtime for me. I'm out. Have a good one.
 
Spent the day doing yard work.
Tomorrow I am heading to the next town over to try my luck at finding an apw (air pressurized water) can at the extinguisher shop..... Let's hope they have used ones.....
They are not worth it new.... I would rather get another co2 at that cost.....
Wish me luck.
I had inside connections.... But when my buddy worked for a fire appliance place, they had tanks that were scratched or whatever, that got replaced.. They couldnt resale them but they were safety certified and refilled.. May be worth asking about.
I think we have 5-6 in the shop. I used one a while back on a hay baler that caught fire. FD didnt respond all that fast and it wasnt even a 1/2 mile from the house. I had couple gallons of water in buckets and shot it with a co2. Kept it from starting a 3rd fire in the field
 
And what sayest thou oh Robin of Blue Hill.......boil or steam the bugs of the sea?

Is one faster so less room for error?

Either way.....if using seawater I boil.....but it takes longer.... not to cook but to get that much water hot.......if reduced to using tap/well water I usually ad some salt and stream....much quicker to eating never noticed much difference in the finished product.......maybe a little tenderer boiling.......if you have extras they stay warm better in the hot water....also boiling you don't need a covered pot....yrs ago I made a shore cooker out of a SS beer keg cut in half...bolted some handles to the side and good to go....stihl have it kicking around for when we go to the beach party/cookout...but for home I have a fancy propane fired SS cooker/turkey fryer with several baskets including a large seafood basket and SS burner frame...iron burner.....wicked good rig... $79 at Sam's Club....if I had been bright I would have bought two...never seen the same setup again..would like one for camp..
 
Morning crew. Looks like I've got to go back to the grind....wife sure likes the paychecks so do what you've got to.

Hopefully tonight J can start putting the shop back in order to get back to some saws!

Morning ladies.

Last time I had this much time off I was getting married. Sure is weird going back to work after 4 days off. Got a lot done on the house, very productive long weekend.

I get to wave goodbye to a pant load of cash today. Writing two checks. One for the propane tank fill. The other for the lease termination. Least its done. And were in the house!
