    Dust

    Today I did my monthly mowing job for the land developer, to keep the sensitive California protected plant from growing. This plant, the california coastal sage, is what this special protected bird, the California Nat Catcher makes it's nest in, or eats. The ground is very sandy, and just...

    Update to "Guess what I was trying to do "..........Fire

    Fires scare me. Is it possible the bearings that failed, were they sealed bearings? I was using my chipper, the chaff built around the muffler, which real close to the ground. The ford V8 was running wide open, the muffler must have been red hot. I just about lost a tire before I got the fire...

    What were you doing on 9-11

    I have several motorcycle friends who I visit often. If all we talked about was motorcycles I would get rather boring. It is nice to bring up other subjects. Stan

    Changing oil

    I have been changing my own oil in everything with a motor, starting in 1957 with my 48 Cushman scooter. My tractors have a lot of room to move around to get the drain plug out. My cars are a different problem for me. I use ramps to drive up on, and put down a pieced of cardboard, and wiggle...

    Pay Day

    Made a trip to my local scrap yard today. I had 76 pounds of red brass @ 4.30, 62 pounds yellow brass @ 3.25 Don't think I did very good on my aluminum cans. I had three trash cans full. My receipt only shows I had 13 pounds. Need to watch my cans better next time. I am not collecting...

    Checks

    I don't think many people would do what you did, now days. A guy ran out of gas next to my place. I always have a can of gas in my truck. The guy asked if it was for people who run out of gas, no I said it was for when I run out of gas. Then he got in his car and left. He didn't even ask if He...

    Checks

    I have a rabbit story. I agreed to do a mowing job. One thing I needed to do was hang cans on the front of my tractor to scare the rabbits away. I probably looked like a fool with cans hanging on the front on my tractor. Stan

    Checks

    I find that also about people with money. I worked for a doctor. His wife paid me. When he retired and showed up he beat me up on my charge. It was a easy job I just lowered my price. I left a job like you one time. The job was full of rocks. I was mowing a little high, but would have passed...

    Checks

    I very seldom get paid with a check at my mowing jobs. Only one this year. Going through my 54 chevy flat bed a while back, I found a check that was at least 15 years old, when I was doing disking. it was for a small disking job, I just figure it a loss. Another time years ago my wife threw...

    Dad's water cooled air plane V 8 motor

    On the west coast of California in our town, it was a ideal climate to grow avocados, except the winter months is was too cold. To keep the trees from freezing some growers used air plane motors mounted above the trees to keep the wind moving preventing freezing. When the growers found out they...

    Plastic Oil Pan

    That's what happens when you have someone designing something that doesn't have a clue on how things work. I feel sorry for your grand son. The previous oil change shop probably over tightened the plug. Over size drain plugs are made for stripped threads in metal pans, I doubt for plastic. Stan
