What Manly Things Did You Do Today?

Yes, I mostly make metal constructions for bridges and partial prosthesis.

 

Replaced a fused disconnect on one of my children's Furness.

It doesn't look bad.
But if you look just below the mains bolt where the disconnect inserts, you can tell where the plastic has been heated from bad connection.
Good for a few more years.

Moved some chain and pipe.

 

1992 Buick. Replaced water pump and painted and installed new side view mirror. Both jobs were pain. Had to support the motor and remove the PS motor mount just to replace the friggin' water pump!

 

Hacked a Bic 4 color pen to deploy highlighter ink in one cylinder.

 

That's a beast of a chain ...... what is it anchor chain?

 

Line wall chain out of a coal mine. 140 feet of it and a pain to load.

 

Thanks for the info ..... BTW nice looking dog.

 

Learned a new word. Vexillology.

 

Re-wiring a Garrard syncro lab 75 turntable.

 

Probably shoveling snow.

I live in the Buffalo area and don’t have that.

 

I wish I didn't have it either. Gotta love the New England weather.

Sleeping on the hard floor to try to fix my back. Manly? Don't know. Will it work? Don't know.

 

@gorgo2 I hope you are feeling better.

 

Yes, somewhat! Thanks for asking.

 

Not just today, but May 1 to November 1, I managed 2,200 miles (3540 km) on my bicycle. For the year I am about 1000 miles (2800 mi total) ahead of where I finished the year last year and still have 2 months to go. Feeling pretty good about the progress for a fat old guy.

 

awesome Dale..

 

Thanks. Now if I could just drop below 250 lbs....
