Well to celebrate National dog day yesterday, my shop pupper, Jax, decided to eat something he shouldn't, and it has formed a blockage in his stomach. I don't know what it is yet. The nice folks at the emergency vet, where he stayed with last night should be letting me know soon, along with how...

bdbecker- That looks like a good unit. You will be happy to just have to plug it in, and flip a breaker or two. Be careful about your enclosure, you will need plenty of airflow to keep everything cool, as well as routing your exhaust out. Amkluttz- I did not run it constantly for 4 days, more...

Amkluttz- no issues with overheating, I used the generator with just the compressor on, and used an air hose and blew all the **** out of the radiator right after I powered it up. I But we did have the fuel filter plug up from using dirty heating oil. (I ordered a filter setup for my transfer...

We had a storm last Tuesday, and the power was out till Sunday afternoon. we always had a small generator that would power the esentials, but After Irene and a freak blizzard on halloween that left CT without power for a week, in 2011, and Sandy, in 2012, my dad decided to get a pto generator...

Nice Collection of squares Bob! I probably only have 3 speed squares, but then there is the 4 t squares, 3 adjustable machinist's squares, and who knows how many tape measures. Probably 20 tape measures, and I can never find one. Does anyone know their favorite habitat to hide in?

Shopnut, Do you have more pictures of Pekoe, I am reading your thread from the beginning, and I am on pg 48, about the time when you broke your heel in 2011. You posted a picture of him playing nurse, (sleeping on your leg) that looks JUST like my dog. She was a rescue, and we do not know what...

Cute pup, and I love your shirt!:rocker:

My biggest takeaway from that well spoken post, WE ARE A COMMUNITY. We need to start acting like it!

Sorry to hear about your best friend, Hewey. Remember the good times.

Love the garage, and the lean-to is interesting. If there is anything chewable in those totes, make sure you tape them up before winter... mice love totes in sheds... ask me how I know!

Awesome TimeWarp! I have loved following your projects, and can't wait to hear that truck fire up again!

Andy, just wanted to drop you a note, to say that this is one of my favorite threads. I started from the beginning around Thanksgiving, after I caught up on Bob's thread. I read a little each day on breaks at work, and loved it. The way that you connect with others here is amazing, and I feel...

I may be way oversimplifying this, but what if you grafted the capless fuel filler into the existing filler neck, and then simply but a vented cap on the outside (a dummy cap). then since the stock tank is in the cab and the custom tank is under the bed, just gravity feed the custom tank from...

Glad your friend found a good bus. My Wife's sister's husband's sister's soon to be husband runs the first place in CT that you went to look. He has some real junk there. Lol it's almost like you came to see me! :lol_hitti

Good luck with the burial. About 8 years ago, I moved into a basement apartment at my grandfather's house while I was attending college in a neighboring town. It worked well, because grandpa lived alone, but was getting to the age where he needed some extra help around the house. Anyway, I had...

Sorry to hear about Ellie, here's to her!

I love the cribbage board. I made an aluminum one for my dad's retirement a few years ago. I can't find a picture of the final product, but here's a prototype I made from tooling foam before I cut the aluminum.

Its Friday night, I drank a few cold ones and made a pot of wood stove chili!:beer:

Love all these pictures of our best friends. I have a question, What kind of dog beds do you guys have in your garage for the "help"? We spend a lot of time in my garage, and most of the year, I leave the doors open so my two "helpers" can come and go as they please, but with winter woodstove...

My Dad and I have done several remodeling jobs together. My father was a general contractor for 35 years, and I learned everything I know from him. I found that I have exactly the same experience as Harley Jim. If I argue with him on something, he will fight me every step of the way, even to the...
