Springfield Mo I believe.....

 

Ah, for a minute there I thought we could've been classmates

 

Why you in "starting oneself on fire" welding class too up in KC?

 

Oneself? No.

Ones jacket sleeve?



But an Acetylene cutting torch can do that.

 

MTI here in springfield its a fairly new school but the welding program is pretty good with a heavy emphasis on pipe fitting

 

hehe i have a pull over fleece i wear to school that is covered in holes from slag hitting it no matter where i put the damn thing when i take it off it always has a new hole melted into the damn thing

 

Yea my sleeves are just riddled in tiny holes from vertical stick.

How long is the course? Mine is 90 weeks, and it's got a pretty well spread out course plan.

Mig, stick, Tig, FCAW, Pipe, Blueprints, and everything else I'll never use.

 

Evening All!

It's COLD out there. Ka'Bluey wouldn't start this morning. He even thought it was too friggin' cold this morning. I got a ride in this morning and an '03 Impala to cruise around in until it warms up a bit.

 

wifes car won't start either battery is dead jumped it let it run for 30 mins or so turned it off went out a hour or so later wouldn't start again. Guess its time for a new battery i do know the one that is in it is a little on old side. Still jumps just fine though. Funny thought she was all proud of her car after she backed it out of the driveway yesturday to go to work after i had told her she probably wouldn't make it till i shoveled it all off. She proved me wrong (and made me hate that little olds even more) but she got paid back coming home when it got stuck in the ROAD turning off of campbell onto our street.

 

Hello and good morning Rich!

I returned the APR header bolts and bought Summit's best. They are Nickel Plated Steel with a washer that prevents them from backing out. There is also Circlips to hold the washers on.

It is now -5 degrees with a high of 31 and clear skies.

Take care.

P.S. I also purchased the Copper Crush Washers but having a bit of trouble finding Grade 8 5/8-11 Bolts for the back of the heads.

 

Check with "Fastenal", they always have what ever I need as far as hardware (nuts, bolts metric and standard), steel stock, Dewalt tools, HD cutting and drilling tools.

Alan I've had MANY..... cold mornings that I wanted to take Ka'Bluey out for a drive, and he just didn't have it in him. That carb needs a choke!
So how is everybody doing? The cold weather has bade it's way east, it's only up to 11 degrees here, it was 8 when I got up at 6am. Looks/feels like a good day to hang around inside the house.
