I went out searching for my assortment of small screws. I needed it to help the wife hang some pictures. I couldn't find it and became slightly irritated. I strumbled across a pot metal aluminum light fixture cover in the process. It has a single retaining screw in the top. It needed...

Yesterday, I repaired a car seat and fought with Christmas decorations. It was starting to go full tilt Griswold at times. 🙄🤣 The foam sides were no longer attached to the seat once the cover was removed. I glued both left and ride sides onto the seat. The top headrest foam was loose and...

It makes a world of difference. Makes sure you turn the gas off in between welds. If I leave mine on too long it tends to leak out. I regularly turn it off in between setups during a weld project.

Yesterday, I found the and repaired the small gas leak in the garage. It was leaking at the quick disconnect fitting and I didn't realize until trying to snug it up that it was cracked. A little too tight on the original install. Oopsie 🙄 I also stumbled across some finish nails I spilled in...

I made all those old DVD cases find their way into our recycling tote and cleaned the gutters. We were blessed with beautiful weather today. Happy Thanksgiving! 👍😁

My daughter asked for a video that is no longer offered on our streaming services. Mom thought we had an old dvd version of the movie, but it was stored in a pile of DVDs. I finally organized the boxes of DVD's and stored them in the new cases. In the process I logged each video in a Google...

It's a temporary location and it will need relocated again. I forget my original logic behind it's placement, but I only moved it enough to install my rack beam. I need a bigger service wire to feed the entire shop with a single box.

It doesn't look like a huge accomplishment, but I made good headway on the new pallet rack installation. The top bar on this rack couldn't be installed until I relocated the sub panel. Summarizing I moved a sub panel, installed the top beam/bar of the rack, and finally installed my welder...

Test for fit the new side shift hose & fitting combo on the forklift. I think it's going to work.

Emptied there over full garbage can into the hopper, removed the side shift hoses on my forklift and squeaked out three sets of deadlift. Baby steps, but forward progress 👍😁

I started getting the new pallet racking in position. Wow! I was kind of annoyed I couldn't find used stuff at first, but after clipping the firt couple bars in I adjusted my attitude. This stuff is great! Nice new paint and they clip together so nice! I should gain some massive floor space...

Yesterday I changed the battery on old Margaret (62' C750). Someone forgot to disconnect it on the last drive. Then I took it for a short spin around the parking lot. Still fishing around for that second gear downshift thru double clutches. I got one smooth shift but it only happened when I...

It looks nice! 👍. The design reminds me of the fence project I started this year. So far I'm 40' into a 250' plus project. I hung up my fence building hat for the year.

Squats, three sets of 10 @ 135. I'm challenging a colleague at work to encourage regular physical activity. The goal is to perform 3 days of the same workout this week. Otherwise nada I was on Dad duty tonight! 👍😁

I hooked up my toy and generated the 4th state of matter for a few passes. It's my first attempt at using one since about 2015 ish. It works, but it isn't too pretty..... Yet!

Relatively productive day for me....I got the deck sealed for winter, installed several short 2x4's in part of my basement wall to support the seams of the cedar lining, reconfigured the 3/4" main water line, and hung five sheets of drywall on the basement project...... Most importantly I...

Worked on my pressure washer.... This seal is a cool design, but it's also bothering me! 🙄

I played with the laser burner for a few minutes and let it run a batch of branded novelty coasters.

I have a similar pile that could use some more organizing. I might try to burn some novelty phrases or simple pictures on a few. All depends on my level of creative motivation! My burner works decent but has an extended run time.

I turned all the wood into short drops. Now I have to find a way to use these little leftovers!
