Hey everyone, just stopping by real quick to say hi. My damn internet service these past few days is so slow it's not even worth getting on sometimes. I think my comm guy screwed the team by giving another team a few ports on our server, but he swear that wasn't what slowed it down..... I find it hard to believe such a coincidence..... Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Not much going on here at the moment. My grandparents left about over an hour ago, Troy just went to bed, Chase is getting ready for his interview and I have bread in the oven. We need to leave in about 20 mins to take Chase to his interview, I hope he gets this one, it's less than 2 miles down the road unlike the one yesterday that was 30 miles away. After that the kids and I are heading to my moms house for a bit just to get them out of the house for a couple hours.

Cant wait to see the pics Brad.
Well I'm going to head into town and get me some breakfast. The wife is working this weekend and I'm not messing up any dishes to have clean myself. I might try to get my new depth finder on my boat today but all depends on the temps and how many beers I decide to drink. Have fun folks.
Been here a week and havent messed up much more than utensils!

I am glad I went in there to check before GG showed up, she would have beat my *** if she didn't have a squeaky clean bathroom to use.

Anyone have any big plans today?
Nope, just got home at 4 my time. Imma fix me some dinner and probably go out again tonight!

In other news I'm spending the night dog-sitting for 3 dogs. 2 older ones. One is an English Setter. And a puppy who is probably 6 months or 7 months old who is a Britney Spaniel.

The puppy is a total jackhole.

And now for the grinder report:

This morning as we were going out the door the client we are grinding for called and said that their magnet jammed up with material and so did their feed chain. So we went there and they had a 5 gallon pale full of nails from our wood. And it had jammed up because of the magnet blocking the conveyor because of all the nails plus the material size. So I spent my day fabricating and installing a nail chute. The machine already had a magnetic drum that the conveyor rides on. Then we went to start the machine up to test out our new nail chute. Then we couldn't get the grinder clutch to engage without stalling the 500hp CAT even when it was at full bore. So we had to pick all the wood out from around the drum so we could get the machine going. Then after we got it going and started letting it run out off material it started flinging wood a few hundred feet in the air so I had to sprint over to the 6.0 in order to get it out of the line of fire.

It looks like we're going to have to change out the screens to smaller screens. The screens that are in there are 2" screens. We want to put in 1" screens. The screen sits below the rotating drum that holds the hammers so that material larger than the screen holes can't get there. The current one is welded in. And they're good welds. It looks like someone is going to be spending some quality time with a demolition saw to get that out.
