Trouble maker!! Don't you have a road trip to write about... :>)
<Rustling around in his bag> Nothing really has changed that much.
November was a busy month with SEMA -- My 35th Anniversary -- and TurkeyDay travels etc.
But I did start to piece together something I've always wanted in my sheds - a dirty room vacuum system for the grinding and dirt making area. This is 6" "Nordfab" industrial piping -- that goes up thru the concrete floor and connects to a big ass dust collector that is remote controlled.
I had to stop and order another $3K worth of pipe and fittings when my design idea got "added to". I needed some T's -- and more reducers etc. They were ordered last week and should arrive shortly. Nordfab has a great website and you can order this stuff directly from them. I decided in the interest of safety that I should include their spark arrestor and I wanted to add a floor sweep and on and on. WTF - go big or go home! LOL
Lots of parts and pieces -- but like everything I do -- not always the RIGHT parts and pieces to complete the job!!
PS --- I HATE the painted floors!! Drop one thing - that's a week looking around trying to find it. UGH!!
Since I live high in the mountains and it gets REALLY cold here -- it was very nice to be able to use my indoor mixing valve to have warm water and be able to wash the Jeep INDOORS! There is a big ass drain (more for snow melting off vehicles) in the floor.... works like a charm!!! I'm so glad I had the plumber put this in.
I'd also ordered a few more 1 ton 30' chain hoists for making better use of the "free" sky in the old shed! The stuff I don't use often is being hung up there.
