    we used to have a machine,,,back in the tireshop days had 2 big steel wheels that would angle in right where you needed them,,on hydraulics,,,,,and spin the tire at the same time,,,,it was a magic machine for stubborn split rims,,,but that was 52 years ago and 3000 miles from here,,,,bob

    Well, I never thought of that. Paul seems when I’m working. I don’t really notice it but just standing still I seem to get hotter. That’s very interesting. Took everything to the dump a little while ago. Now I’ve got to do an errand and then come back and mess with my tree Water drip system always something.

    Hippy ,,, confused about manufacturing and service hourly rate I’m seeing 35 an hour for plant jobs versus trying to survive on 13 an hour cashier in 7-11 those penny anny positions used to be held by high.school kids and spouses trying to help out .. instead people are trying to raise a family on it nowadays… let’s hope some of these plans actually make a difference and fast .. bob

    I’m surprised you don’t have hired ranch hands to do all your bull work

    Right on man that’s a cute little truck. I’m sure it does well for what you use it bar but it sure is not a DM 800 ha ha thanks for that Paul. Glad to see you’re making progress.
