    Actually i was looking for a Mexican restaurant that wasn't in Seoul, but couldn't find one. That seems to be one of the few cuisines that is not well represented there. I was able to get a good burger and a decent pizza. That's a lot better than my 2006 visit, where i wasn't able to get a...

    Lots of kimchi, nobody wanted to get us BBQ. No bulgogi but i do like it. No bibimbap. I did fish a baby octopus out of one dish. NOPE.

    Sorry guys, i've been gone for a while. 2 weeks in Korea, just got back Saturday, and before that, a long slog on house projects and fixing the kid's truck AGAIN. I never seem to be able to get away from that thing. Now that i'm back, first order of business was finish putting the daily back...

    i was wondering if we were making a burn pit / box or a burner. seems like both. if you want lazy flame, don't add air. If you want a blowtorch, get some air blowing in there. all depends on what you're after.

    Harbor Freight: Quality vs. junk

    i can add a fail item to this thread. I recently bought a 10pc knockout punch set, intended as a copy of greenlee punches. I usually use the 1/2 in knockout for my work. Failed first use, the cutting die shattered, and the bolt bent, as a result, the bearing also deformed. Utter junk and...

    The hercules parts showed up. I get why there's 2 now. Front and rear oil pan adapters are the same. The design of this engine is weird. You bolt on the front cover and bellhousing FIRST then the oil pan adapters bolt to those, THEN the oil pan bolts on. Super weird. Anyway, they look like...

    Still waiting on the part for the hercules. I sent a message to the seller, who said they were closed last week, it was in the ad, and it would ship shortly. Went back and checked the ad. nothing about closure. Still waiting... It's always something.

    Stepping back into this from a ways back, with a holistic look... are you sort of getting out of collecting things to make the shop better, and more into buying/selling things? Sort of like industrial resales?

    An update on the engine for the genset. The oil pan adapter was broken, closes up the hole around the crank flange to the oil pan. Design is weird, but mine was broken. I was going to make one, but found two on ebay. Those are much cheaper than making.
