Former Boston FD , B85F-1211 project, Mack Brothers....
mowerman replied to T-Mack1's topic in Fire Apparatus
Wound up moving 60 miles away though that’s the way it works in LA. Everything is so expensive down there. You have to move far away from town to afford anything. It’s pretty much the same way everywhere now though. -

That’s excellent. I did have three jobs as a teenage kid that were within a mile of my house. I had one trucking job in LA. That was very close as you said just a few minutes. Sure, makes it nice. -
I read somewhere in 66 they continued the manufacturing the B model on account of they had so many parts they needed to use up a bunch of them… so people were probably getting a really good deal on the last years model at that time

And about those drones...............................
mowerman replied to kscarbel2's topic in Odds and Ends
That was very interesting. I’m glad more and more people are aware of these things that I was wondering if they were picking them up on radars or do some of them just sneak on through without being detected. -
Plus you can do your own heads … I was able to use a valve lapping kit

Larry, somebody made one for me on a lathe I still have it if you want me to send you a picture of what I’ve got

We don’t have fleas here but one of my little dogs brought a flea back from San Diego when we were there for thanksgiving we’re going back down this week this time we bought Frontline for protection

That’s what I think about flies and mosquitoes

Yes, same here. They do a lot of pollinating echo balance if you will

But frankly, I hate winter so bad that I hardly ever cry no matter how hot it is
-
Yes, summer time is my favorite but sometimes it’s just too hot for me and a lot of times It just comes too hot too fast

That must’ve been creepy. Hopefully you didn’t run out of cigarettes ha ha and Tom. I found a huge mess like that behind some old planters. I was throwing out. I didn’t even know it was back there. Good thing it was winter time.

Well, the jackass already got one headed to him for doing absolutely nothing for it …. Incredible

Certain times of the summer my lawn is full of them. I don’t know a whole lot about them. They’re not Hornets or wasp some sort of yellow jackets. I just continue mowing and they don’t seem to bother me.or get annoyed by the mower
-
Yes, same here. Sometimes I get stung and I don’t even feel them just get swollen and itchy.
-
That’s really weird without the apartment on the back gives the truck an entire different look. I’m almost thinking it looks better, but I also thought that apartment made it look better confused now. Good luck yes with selling.

It does bind occasionally when I’m moving around, but I assume it’s probably air in the system since it keeps leaking and I have to keep filling it just to move it -

No, it was not on my number one to do list. I really wanted to finish the nose before I did anything else. -

Well, I didn’t do anything yesterday now we’re planning a barbecue for tomorrow. Gotta get ready for that shopping cleaning the yard cleaning the porch. Oh well, always something but Mrs mower didn’t tell me this morning that she has noticed I am getting very lazy She’s retiring in six months. Oh good. That means she’ll be here every day.
