What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

[Richard Cranium]

Our house is 984 inches from the road, but our water meter is a mere 0.0508 of a yard from the street boundary.

Started up the Woodbridge facility a few years back. Wouldn't be your gig would it?

 

[JDmac72chrgr]

No, midtown Atlantic City, BABY GT gen, only 5Mw; worked at 100MW Cogen years ago.

 

[mrhemi]

Woodbridge is 600+MW, 2 on 1, GE machinery. The big CT's take more than 5MW just to start them now.

 

[JDmac72chrgr]

lmao!! A former coworker from the 100mw-er came down here, during interview, it was mentioned about the "NEW" GT, Mike said "...oh, a starter for a real gas turbine"!!! Great guy, passed a few years ago at 58. RIP MIKE!!!

Framing just started for basement family room, bedroom and bathroom. Plumber comes in tomorrow to set everything up before framing can continue. Thank goodness lumber prices have returned to normal.

I've been pricing wood fencing and even though it's come down some, it's no where near normal. Glad I'm only doing a 20' run with a gate.

2X4 8 footers around here are down to $4.00 now. They were in the high 3's about 3 years ago.

This is a biggee! The 1970 Coronet 500 is finally in our driveway. I bought it in Las Vegas NM in January of 2022. My son was nice enough to take it to his property by the San Juan Mountains here in Colorado. He bought it to my house yesterday when he came for Easter. I'm finally going to get good pictures of it and try to start it. All I did was make sure the engine wasn't locked up when I bought it.

Setting up an 8 3/4 for someone and removed and stuck on new bearing on the spool and did some cleaning in the shop. Also cleaned and advertised a 2 tier small pet cage on Facelessbook. Need to get rid of more several things.....

I changed out tail light modules on daily driver. And of course it was harder than should have. The new LED light modules although same part number as original fit slightly larger. Including the connector. And the middle screw insert on the plastic lens broke immediately on both taillight assembly removal. Thankfully the top and bottom lens screws did not. Thus tail light is secured.

The car is a 2014 cadillac XTS. And their tail light assembly I believe could have been of better design. But at least I have full brake lights back.

Side tracked by Granma again. Can't complain.. it was original our Daughter Jennifer's some 35 or so years ago. Bit of sanding... bit of chrome paint then back on my car letters.

 

[Beep!Beep!]

Put last 2 windows in my garage, put the ceiling hangers on the bathroom wall for the garage and cleaned out the bay for my 70 rr supposed to be done Thursday!

 

[Cranky]

Grocery pickup this morning.....almost missed out on a 20 buck discount on 100 bucks spent so replaced some things in the freezer. My total bill was 100.53 with 20 off of that. In the middle of changing oil in the 96 Dakota. Past due. Need to shovel more dirt out where the fence will be built and hope to do some of that later on.

 

[67 Mopar]

Started putting the OSB up on the walls of the new workshop.

 

[Beep!Beep!]

Put a receiver tube in my enclosed hauler for a winch ,so I can go get my 70 rr Monday evening it's a roller and is painted, don't want to take a chance at it getting chipped up before iam actually driving it.
