Well that sucks, being at work hurting just sucks rusty rhino roots. Been there done that too many times.

Me too. Way too many times. :shakes head:

That's some real Larry Nasser **** right there.

Been too busy to keep up with you nerds (aka I was too lazy to pop in here), hope you all had a great Christmas!

Since you didn't stop by to see us yesterday. Think it's your turn to get picked on. :rofl2:

Have at it!

Dear God, changing out the starter on my truck was the worst! Top bolts came out 1/128th turn at a time! All that space in the engine bay, and they cram that sucker into the worst possible place!

Done now though, and hopefully good for a while.

Order some new tools :yum:

Bout to grab some chow; after piddling with wood a while...grabbed the hoe diggers & went down about blade deep & 12-15” diameter :ugh2:
Gave me a little painus :eek: :icon17:

I like the tag that just says "tag" :rofl2: :tup:

sssup duudes.

:hello:

i 'ont like any of those tags duude..:ugh:

Had a 137.

My crotch is sore :wtf2:
When I’m climbing around on my wooden play house; I must be making some awkward moves- as where my pelvis was broken gets sore :ugh2:

Well...Suck it up duuude :tup:

Motorhome went out tonight for rent. But not without some drama. :mad: Fill the water tank up yesterday. Turned the water pump on today. Sprung a water leak in the outside pullout kitchen. One of the hoses had broken a screw on fitting to the cold water side. No way to get to the fitting. So had to cut a hole in the back of a panel to get access. In the process of cutting the hole. I nicked the hot water line. Now it's leaking. Put some sealant on the line and wrapped it with fusion tape. The renters are going to let it sit over night before turning the water back on. hoping that it holds until they come back. Then I can spend some time on it to fix it right.

Was Santa good to ya?

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

:icon14:

santa is always good to me duude... what about you duude?

Oh yeah. I got a rebuild on my 50-year-old turntable, bunch of vinyl and an iou on some 19's for the Z.

iou :ugh2:

:ugh:

We supposed to have more rain coming,,,haven’t seen it on the radar yet :ugh2: :shakes head:

Night Folks :tiphat:
Beauty rest is getting past due :ugh2:

:icon14::icon14::icon14::icon14:

Not particularly pleased with how the long 2x6 turned out stain-wise. Sanded multiple times, final sanding with 320, and put three coats of stain on over two days. Must be the wood...

Still need to finish framing the tool chest. Bottom 2x6s were a tad too short, may go find some 2x8s. Table legs will run from top 2x6 to bottom 2x6s. On the plus side, staining the fence w a paint sprayer turned out pretty well for my first time using one. Made sure to park the Z on the street first too.

Edit: as you can tell by the pic, I'm standing on the bottom of rhe world. Suck it, Copernicus.

Since Coolerworks doesn't make shifters for simulators I had to buy this short shifter kit. :rofl2:

Depends on how wet the lumber is and what grade, species ect. Usually it is wet as **** at the home centers. Menards can have some decent dry stuff but its all usually still construction grade and not really meant for furniture making. If ever build another one you can try to use some pre-treatment to help the stain soak up a bit more evenly but ive never had good luck on 2x4s and the likes.
The good thing is after a few years and projects, it'll take a beating and you wont mind the patina.

:hello:

I'z up. :yawn:

I WAS TIRED last night. Went to bed at 10pm. :icon14:

Sprinkling rain mow. Temp is 54F.

:werd:






:tiphat:

2x4's and such as a general rule doesn't stain real good. Because of the treatment.

Exactly. I had some gel dyes work out OK but they tend to be the darker colors. Some of the lighter ones still look blotchy.

I be up :icon14:
No aches & pains yet :ugh2:

:tiphat: Happy Friday morning Folks
Gonna feel like another Monday, when I get to work @2:30 :wtf2:

I'z up. Mirror-fogging, feet-slogging, some ************ playing castanets all up in my noggin.

You’re giving me idears; though I seldom use 1.5x3.5’s for anything :ugh2:
I’m intentionally using long carriage bolts, from about knee high up & planning to put shelves around the whole inside & have plenty to anchor too :tup:
Watching the weather; as I’m planning to stick those other dozen 6x6 glider post in the ground & apply cement :eek: They just have to be on spot, as once they’re 3+ feet down w/2+ bags of cement...they don’t have much flex :nutswinger:
Then I’m gonna pick up a couple bottle jacks & set underneath post @ strategic locations & raise the whole box evenly...roughly about a foot :iagree:
Then bolt the double bottom 2x12’s to the 22 cemented post to hold suspended while prepping underneath (after they’ve hardened) :ugh2:
At least that’s what’s on my blueprints I drew up :eek::owned:

Good Friday Morning All. Well its the weekend. Coffee for now then off to gym to get things going after a couple of days off. Being Friday that means its also Mexican Food for dinner tonight with the Mrs. Going to try and get some things exchanged tomorrow, that is going to be Fun. :icon14: Anyway hope you all have a great Friday and don't forget to be safe out there. :xmastup::happyholidays:
