I have too much going on this year and not near organized enough to bother with a booth, I used some of a buddies space last year as he gets 5 stalls every year and had room.

Hopefully I will work good enough deals to make it worth buying things this year.

See you're taking on fab work, gonna have anything setup to advertise business at the swap meet?

 

I thought about dragging my LUV out there for some attention, but I'm not going to have the time. I'll certainly be out there browsing through the junk though.

 

I'll throw that cab visor in the back of my truck and get it to you there.

 

Cool beans. I'll have to dig through my junk pile and see if there's anything else in there to give ya

 

I won't argue with that. If you're bored with the bumpers on your truck I'd be willing to save them from the scrap pile. haha

 

Well they're welded on so I guess you have to take the entire truck

 

I'll be sure to bring a tow strap so I can drag it home and have yet another POS to move around. haha.

How's the Hauler coming along?

 

Just pick up some C-4 universal disassemble. Place it just right
and you won't even have to load it. It will be self-loading. Misplace
it and you might be finding parts all the way at your place.

Hey john to continue the conv from the other thread, if I can assist in moving I will, having a second truck bed might be nice. Plus I can help with lifting. I'm not sure when you'll be doing it though.

 

Sounds like we are going to sign papers tomorrow for the place in Shelton with the 24X36 shop!

I am scrambling to get a Lift Pump for the Box Van right now.

Move would probably be in a couple weeks as we'd be giving 20 days notice for vacating where we are.

My first trip in the box van will be up north to unload all the crap in it to a few places then to my buddies shop in Marysville to get all my tools and take them out to Shelton. Figure there's no sence driving it all the way up north and coming back empty.

 

WE GOT THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!

In Shelton, 1,000 sqft, fully fenced yard and a 24X36 Shop for $825 a month! HUGE upgrade in living situation for less than we are paying at the our current place.

Planning to do the move on the 14th.

Picking up an IP for the Box Van tomorrow, will grab the seals/O-rings needed and put it on. Do licensing on it Monday then my trip up north sometime soon.

May just do the trip next weekend and drive the box van to the swap meet as it would be on the way back and in case I get any large items or anyone else needs something hauled vaguely on the way between Puyallup and Shelton.

 

No need to bring a strap, it comes equipped with one. Haven't done anything to the hauler, been working on a samurai for a buddy. Good to hear you got the house

 

Can't tell you how much relief it is getting any place to get our little one out of this Lead coated $#!thole. None the less that this new pace is ideal for us in every way.

Now I have an entire shop I need to outfit. Been so long since I've unpacked all of my tools and parts I'm going to need to inventory what I own. Then I can start looking for things I need/want. Going to be selling things to come up with money but that's just the way it is, first project then vehicle to go will either be the 89 Toyota pickup or the 61 Econoline pickup. After I get through both of those then I can bring down the "Memory Machine" which is a dead friends 68 Dodge A108 van he had in high school and I (with help) saved from the junkyard when I saw it in the processing area. That will probably become the wife's cruiser so I can get her interested in going to car shows and stuff. All the while doing smaller projects on my crew cab, wife's Buell, Harley and who knows what else. I'm too excited to sleep.

 

Your up late.
Know of any welding shops that are reasonably close by that
just happen to be open on Sunday and also have ArCo2 bottles
that are full?


Sean

 

I do not, I have only filled my bottle up north as that's where my welder's at, for a couple more weeks at least.

What do you need welded?

I would check all the usual suspects Central, Praxair, Gasair etc etc. You need a Rental or an Owner bottle?
