Popular Post other dog Posted December 6, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2015 miscellaneous pictures- I went up to the shop in Concord today to put a bumper on a Dodge pickup. I got a piece of 3" square tubing Monday from Moore's Machine in Spout Spring, Va. They cut it to length, capped the ends, ground everything smooth for me, loaded it in my pickup, and only charged me $39. I told them you couldn't beat that with a stick. They're the same folks that made a lid and put an offset smoker box on my grill last year and charged me $50. Looks like 4" tubing would have looked a little better, but it's thick wall tubing and pretty heavy so I was trying to save weight so I wouldn't have to put a counter weight on the front...this looks better than the "no bumper at all" I had at first anyway. I cut some brackets out of a piece of plate and bolted them on, then I was just going to weld the tubing to the brackets and paint everything black. I could have finished it today but I couldn't get the stupid welder to work. The wire wouldn't feed at all so I unscrewed the tip...still nothing...pulled on it with pliers...still nothing. The thing-a-ma-jig- or is it a thing-a-ma-bob?..I don't remember- anyhow, the thing in the machine was just spinning on the wire but it just wouldn't go through. Had plenty of wire. They should have the old fool-proof stick welder there, but they don't. I put the license plate on the front too, but I didn't put one on the back because there's no bumper to put it on yet. The truck washer guy took my truck to wash it too. He was just getting back when I was leaving so I went down to where he was hooking back up to the trailer and said "how am I supposed to be in Minneapolis at 7 in the morning when you're out riding around?" He started apologizing, then I told him I couldn't deliver in Troy, Va. until Tuesday. He said "man, that truck runs good- I left the stop light down here and it felt like somebody hit me in the ass!" The difference in the way it runs and pulls compared to the Paccar engine is like night and day. It almost- almost- makes me look forward to getting in it and going up the road. And, I saw this girl in Winfall on the way home. She appeared to be broke down, but I didn't have time to stop and investigate the situation. 5 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 I went up to Troy and unloaded those two coils today. When I was on the way back I might have seen Paul moving some things down to Fork Union, but I can't say for sure. Saw a colorful mixer too. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
