I found it really fun to see that I’m not the only one to have an old epa standing at home, it belongs to a guy in my village but it stands here at the farm 
I would think that I would be buying the second ticket

I love old equipment. It reminds me of stuff I had to leave behind though. 
I could really use this old HD5 right now! My favorite part of it was the heavy duty winch.

I was invited to a local event on Sathurday, to show the BCS.
Mr Wayne also made it to the show, thanks for joining us!
Ofcorse, things always go wrong when you need to show something.
I probably got some kind of food poisoning or something in the morning with all the benefits that follow that so l wasnt right in the head when l prepared the gasifier. It kept plugging my gas pipes and filter with charcoal and it took me way too long to figure out l forgot to put corse charcoal on the grate first, like l always do to prevent fine char from sliping trugh the grate. Well, luckly the demonstration was a flawless sucsess, l managed to camouflage the problem by only leting the motor suck gently.

Happy 4th of July to everyone, and a happy American Independence Day for my fellow Americans at home and abroad.
Going to be helping my dad do some catering for a wedding today, dad has smoked 62 pounds of Boston Butt pork to make Carolina Style vinegar sauce pulled pork BBQ and we will be charcoal grilling 16 whole chickens on site.
Of course no day can ever be perfect so we need to change the wheels out on the pull behind grill trailer.
Dad and the entire Detail department were let go last week at the Chevrolet dealership due to cost analysis, the dealership thinks they can do it cheaper with an outside 3rd party.
Hopefully today will cheer dad up, he can’t stand sitting around without work to do even at 73 years old, he’s worked since he was about 11-12. Even with comfortable retirement you can’t let yourself sit still too long in your old age.
But dad only ever has Temporary Setbacks so he’ll bounce back just like with Freightliner.
I need to secure a good source of raw peanuts so he can maybe pursue a dream of his to sell boiled peanuts. He wants to run a simple food cart with a limited menu. I recently made for him a stainless cooking pot that runs on an electric hot water heater element so the brine doesn’t eat away at the cooker and so he doesn’t have to buy propane when he’s boiling peanuts at home.

I was going to make a remark about smoking 62 pounds of Boston Butt but I decided it was a little childish. 
I was thinking it was like smoking crack. You know, Butt crack. Give me a break. I’m old and probably semi-senile.

Here’s the chicken, or about half of it actually. Cut into breasts, thighs, wings. Little pot to the side has butter and chopped garlic for basting on.

The ‘special tool’ for our garage door springs is literally two 5/8" rods that fit into holes on the cap of the spring. They probably do have some safer tool where you are less likely to lose teeth, but that is what the garage door repair guys uses. You just have to get the right number of turns and be aware of what you are doing.

Nope same tools industry wide, they all use a pair of bars. The extra safety is vise grips to prevent a back slip that results in “sum’er teeth”
Sum are here sum’er are over there

Just fyi and you quite possibly don’t care. I found these a while ago, and was surprised that the garagedoor guy didn’t use them:

I know a guy that had a set of those, he had issues with them and sent them back and went back to his bars. Personally I like a regular chain fall door, no springs please. I’m in enough danger as it is, I saw a door come apart once when a spring failed and came crashing down. Granted it was a 16’ wide 18’ tall bay door,still rocked the whole building when it came down. Almost needed a new set of drawers after that one
