What's On Your Bench? 2/15/13

[thomas1]

It's SOP for most shipping companies to deny claims over a certain dollar amount. The only company that doesn't have this policy is UPS.

Once, Fedex smashed up an 084 I shipped. It was tripled bagged, well padded, and double boxed. The agent that called me told me the claim was denied due to:
"Insufficient packaging." I said, "no, I packaged it according to your guidelines and even took pictures of the packaging. Not a problem though, I'll just take you to
small claims court." Two days later they mailed me a check.

I almost had he same thing happen to the 084 I sent to Randy, I saved some steps and made sure it was good and ####ed up before I sent it, though.

And at least one bear, but very likely two.

I'm sure a certain Hooligan would join in if need be, but I highly doubt it would be necessary when the "Mob" unleashes their wrath:msp_biggrin:

A friend in need is a friend indeed.

OK back to the what's on your bench:msp_ohmy:

I have been putting off sharpening chains and still have about 8 or so more left to do. I have been sharpening chains that I have never touched yet since getting them with other saws. So it is taking a while as they get re-profiled to my set up. Not to mention several were safety chains and I ground all that crap off. I just can't see throwing them away since they had a lot of life left in them.

Plus was I found some more 72 dl chains that I didn't know were there and also another 84 dl so all was not lost.

Also realize I need to find a saw that fits a lot fo 16" 3/8 chains that I have uncovered in this mess.

I told myself today I wouldn't do anymore chainsaw work until the chains were taken care of and the end is near now:biggrinbounce2:

I am just about to seal up some ports on a carb (sitting on my bench) with JB weld, I read somewhere on the internets that I can really help performance... umpkin2:

Also remove the choke butterfly. It is restrictive and unneccessary for starting, kind of overkill

Yeah, I figured I would just my thumb over the intake instead.

I believe that's an FDA approved birth control method in Tennessee.

Why just Tennessee? Thought that worked everywheres.

You should make a piston from it if you think you're handy. That's my trick of the week.

That's been done more than you think......

We try to learn our women the green pea method of birth control.

Whats on my bench

I just received a few more Armadillos thanks to one of our members in the south.
I want to give a special thanks to him for shipping them to me.
They came FedEx in an undamaged box, no need for a claim.
Please make sure that they are not alive when you send me the next package of them. I had to chase one of them all over the house, wife was not happy. My wife's Pomeranian didn't like it at all, it got close to the dog, dog got scared, pissed on the floor, wife is really mad now.
I told her she will be glad that I have them now. I am working on making helmets out of them for my family. I hope it will stop the alien mind probes. It may be to late for my wife.

They taste a lot like pork.

Those dillars are fun to chase through the woods wif the skidder. And stuff.:msp_ohmy:

 

[sachsmo]

Could you make me one of them Armadillo hats?

A full wrap would be nice:alien2:

Sure I will make you one.
I can use the legs for the full wrap, they will cover your ears and around your chin.
I use Velcro on the legs to hold them together under your chin.
Did you know that Velcro is actually Alien technology. I read that on the net, it must be true.
