    Strange construction sighting

    Yup. They built a big plant by where i worked by pouring a very large floor then forming individual wall panels and pouring them. Then after curing standing them up.

    Observation at 7-11 today..

    Yah but those candy bar prices dont stop anyone from buying. I used to stop at 7-11 regularly on my way to work a few years ago before I retired. I would see a dozen or so people lined up with candy bars, single drinks ("power" type), cookies etc. Usually with a $25 to $30 total...EVERY DAY.

    Parts Cleaner Sovent

    I have a very nice commercial quality Graymills parts washer that has sat empty for years. Its exactly like the one we had in our garage in the plant where I worked. At that time ours were serviced by Safety Clean of whom came and changed the solvent monthly. I once bought 55 gals of mineral...

    Finding some thing of value that isn't yours how did you handle it? Share your stories.

    Probably 20 years ago I was walking out if a store at night in the rain. A pickup went around the corner at the intersection and "wham" i heard what i knew was a tool box hitting the road. I ran to get it. Mostly because it was a usually a very busy corner and in the dark and rain someone would...

    Carburetor cleaner

    You may be thinking of Hydroseal? We had 5 gallon pails at the shop i worked at. One dip and sparkling carb. You're right about the smell. If you did a carb the whole building knew it. I would use nitrile gloves and tongs to place carb on gutter drain grate. Then approach it with hot power...

    Plugged Grease Fittings

    The times ive been successful, I've removed the zerk and cleaned out the old grease and crud with a small wire and gumout. I try to leave a little gumout in the hole and put in new zerk. I've have the best luck with a good brand name long handled lever gun instead of the grip squeeze type. Some...

    Torch set

    My torch set is a Werco brand which when I bought it in 1977 I was told was an entry level brand made by Victor. I don't know if that was true and I don't think Werco is around anymore. Its the medium size set like most available in many stores. Anyways, my hoses are now like wood and likely...

    Power recliner

    I think maybe there are two different types of chairs. One being the powered lift chair to help a person stand up. I believe those are required to have battery backup- at least my dad's did. The other type is a traditional reclining chair that uses power to recline back instead of manually but...

    Anyone Want Some Grinding Compound ?

    I think it would work at one of the stages in rock polishing in a polisher.

    Personal windmill, again

    I may have brought this up before, my memory isn't that good. I've been sitting here in this brutal cold weather, by the wood stove, watching the wind blow pretty much every day and most nights. I can't help but wonder if or why can't I buy or build a do it yourself small windmill. It could be...

    Brother paid off his tractor. Somebody took his $100K check.

    Since my printer, as do most, makes copies, I make a copy of many checks. Both paid and received. Mostly for my records. While its not proof or legal tender, it does provide some evidence.
