  1. with a torch??? 🤣 i can just barely make a straight line with the plasma cutter anymore. 35-40 years ago i was very good with cutting torch, but than i got the plasma cutter and have only used 2 bottles of oxygen in 35 years. in the past 10 years i dont think i have fired up the plasma cutter but one time.
  2. a good "guide" or outfitter matches the horse to the rider. a very experienced rider gets a rowdy or rambunctious and hard to handle horse. an inexperienced rider gets the extremly tame horse that a 5 year old would feel safe on.
  3. moved to it's own thread.
  4. the word here in jersey is gov ratface is a flaming freaking @##&^%$ that does not know his asterisk from a hole in the ground. he is trying to make himself look good to the brain dead sheep. nothing will ever come of his stupidity, because by the time it is set to happen he will be long gone from state politics. besides, where is all this electricity going to come from to power everything once natural gas, coal, diesel and propane are banned? they are already in the process of banning wind farms.
  5. it took me a couple seconds to figure out what i was looking at!!
  6. how old was grandma Paul? my mom is 92
  7. sorry to hear about your grandmother Paul. my grandparents have been gone over 40 years.
  8. I am going to say angle Bob. Those trailers are usually 20 foot deck.
  9. nothing at all. they are saving the planet by driving an electric car. ..... the fact they have to charge it with a dirty polluting generator is not a problem.
  10. Tilt tray works here too Paul. At least it does for us old farts.
  11. 30? i think i was 18 in that one. i have one from my days on the police force, but for some reason it will not load .
  12. want a really good laugh? santa once looked like this:
  13. Nah...took a nap instead.. I am ready for ice cream now though. 😋
  14. Yea. 😄
  15. it aint me........i break cameras when they are pointed at me. 😁 i worked inside all day. replaced bathroom sink cartridge because the faucet was very hard to turn on. than fixed a leak in the cold shut off valve under sink i found when i turned it off. than replaced toilet tank fill valve. than replaced kitchen sink cartridge. than replaced the batteries on both front and rear door keyless entry locksets. also replaced the batteries in gun safe keyless entry lock, and the three smoke and two carbon monoxide detectors. than replaced fill hoses for washing machine, and replaced the flex pipe on clothes dryer with solid pipe. finished the day by running the 04 plow truck up to exhaust shop to have the broken studs pressed out of the "Y" pipe to cat flange. i was so busy i forgot to take a nap.
  16. and yes, i am bored. it is too cold outside to do anything, and my hip is on fire.
  17. boss posted this christmas eve on his bookface page, with the caption santa stopped by to help fix snow plow wiring before starting his runs:
  18. that AIN'T Bob. if it truly was Bob, the sign would read "will work for mack truck parts"
  19. no sorry, i don't remember who it was.
  20. any time pal.. 😁
  21. that only happens if you live in charlotte mecklenburg metro area.
  22. the frame machine in my old shop had a 35 long by 10 wide table with 200 ton hydraulics. when my 88 was 7 months old i hit a patch of ice while plowing and went straight on into a curb with the plow. the F750 behind me followed rite into the rear bumper. he saw he was gonna hit me and squared the plow to me so it was also a square hit. bent the frame so bad there was a 6 inch gap between top of bed and cab, and touching on bottom. went to the shop and chained it down on the table. put the 12 inch clamps on top of the center of the frame and pulled down, than started pushing up on the four outside corners of the frame. 34 years later and you still can't tell it was ever bent.
  23. i am thinking that was connected to a dump trailer?
  24. that looks like it hurt Paul!!
  25. yup. heavy steel scrap price near him highest price is 5 cents per pound. so they trailer would have to weigh 110,000 pounds to bring $5,500 in scrap.
