Not on the list of approved fuels.I assume you run a waste oil heater?Last of three days nibbling away at a batch of waste oil I got off Facebook marketplace. I really like it when someone has a barrel to give me, even if it’s not full. This batch was an old accumulation of five gallon pails and one gallon/five quart jugs. Five pails and thirty jugs. So I get to empty everything, rinse them with some bad gas someone else gave me, crush them and put them in the dumpster.
Most of the jugs were pretty good, but a couple had real sludge in the bottom. The pails, on the other hand were a trip. One was antifreeze, with a little oil floating on it. One was a solid block of ice, and two of the others had chunks of ice in them. At least in this weather, there was no liquid water.
I wound up with about forty five gallons of useable oil. I’m going to have to clean up the antifreeze and test it. I’ve got a tractor that will use it. The ice will melt some day, and I can float the residual oil off it.
My Harley would just fit through the front door of my apartment if I wiggled the handlebars right.
Buddy in college parked his dirt bike in the living room of his house over the winter. He was known to be found sitting on it making dirt bike noises with his mouth when it was really cold out. Every once in a while he would even start it up.My Harley would just fit through the front door of my apartment if I wiggled the handlebars right.
Not sure the layout of your house, but the living room would keep the bikes nice and toasty and make more room in the garage
Yes. Insurance company made me take out the wood furnace in my garage. I miss it, but it sure is nice to walk in and push the button, instant heat.
why not just get Tekton ratchets? I recently pick up a couple because they have the release button, replacing a couple of snap ons that don't have the release. My biggest complaint is the directional switch on the Tekton is just too low profile to easily switch directions on the fly.Kinda... didn't drill well, too hard. Got a starter hole drilled and carbide burr, hand filed real close. Final fit 320 grit wrapped on a sharpie.
For the Icon G1 1/4 drive flex head ONLY, Tekton small body, $9ea. 3 kits yields free shipping. I only used the toothed square drive out of the kits.
Can still see chrome layer on lower half, gray raw steel upper half.
Was some work but I got what I wanted.
Quick release, soft handle, small body flex head.
Thanks for the link. I just ordered one for my band saw.
I used to keep my BSA Victor (441cc single) in the kitchen of the little house I lived in so that it was possible to start it in below zero Wisconsin winters, so I could ride to visit my folks. I only dropped it once on the ice in the winter, on black ice on a city street.My Harley would just fit through the front door of my apartment if I wiggled the handlebars right.

Dad likes to tell a story of riding his Yamaha 650 across Texas one winter. Stopped at a hotel. Next morning he woke up and the bike had ice all over it frozen solid. He pushed it into the hotel room and used the blow dryer to melt the ice onto the floor so he could get it to start.
What, wrap in electrical tape?
Thanks.
Drilled n countersunk the fixed hold downs. Installed them in the burner. Tested. Shimmed n reinstalled. Tried to clean up the magnetic hold downs. Wound up soaking them in acetone and salvaging the magnets. Checked n relit the boiler pilot. Cleaned out the burner cabinet. Remixed and printing the magnetic hold downs with little retainer bumps for the magnets. Remeasured for the potential doors around the boiler, etc.
Edit: printing is done. And the burner is ready to go.
Pun interned of course!
I only have enough generator to run the fridge, the internet modem and the fan on the fireplace so in the event the electricity goes out the well won't be running so I bought some water storage capacity. 440 liters total so about 116 gallons. These were used to ship garlic stuffed olives from Greece. I think the terracotta color is more appealing than the blue barrels. Makes it feel like more Roman lol.
Well, it's like everything, I have many toys because I have many interests. You can't do them every day, or they'd be work. So they get used while I'm engaged, then left til the next enthusiasm in their direction. Sometimes I lose the inspiration to do things in a specific line for years, but then suddenly the desire comes back again. It's been my life.
Yes. After a couple good scrubbings they are acceptably non odorous.

Man this seems like a frequent occurrence for you!
True, all.
Can't run it through a softener and salt filter?
Its the actual brew water to be consumed.
