Just boring clear skies, no wind, t-shirt weather, no pictures because it's so boring. 🤪

I can relate, am looking at some models with broken parts from over two years ago.

Every home owner's favorite kind of IRK, in this case a water leak. I've known about this for (I better not admit it in public 🫢) and today had a plumber do the investigation. He loved that I had the Kodak slide projector set up, with a picture of the wet wall (where all the plumbing for the bathroom is) when I built it 40 years ago. So even with that, it was the last hole cut that he figured out it's in the cold supply to the kitchen sink which runs under the slab. I know the fix is to run under the base cabinets, under the range, using the PEX plastic pipe so it shouldn't be a total pain. But still..... should I make mouse house facades to cover that? Just for giggles, 40 years ago I broke ground. I have that '77 Honda Civic CVCC 4 speed dealer a/c in many pictures. I currently drive a '16 Civic.

This is the drill head pipe, the slight bend is intentional, for the direction. The bit that got across first. The Ditch Witch pulling pipe out. The third bit will be this one. The tail end, another bit is in the middle going back. This truck is sucking up the fluid, taking it back to the other side several times a day. More augers to use. This is the sleeve pipe. HDPE if I heard that right. 40 feet long, kinda heavy. It's welded together. Using this machine. The first step is machining the ends, then the heater melts the pipe, then the machine smashes the pipes together. Then holds at 796 PSI, takes about 45 minutes when it goes well, data logs each joint. They are going to drag it all down the street, then turn the corner and push/pull it through under the highway.

bud that fried

I have not seen a completed one, you did a fine job. If you were to correct everything, it would still be a WIP. 😏

This irk of having a jerk neighbor, is going to be more than one day long. What irks me is Double Standards, neighbor didn't report the other Shipping Container up my street that we drive past. The last aerial image on the County G.I.S. does not show mine yet, so I look forward to asking the County to explain.

Rocky Mountain oysters

Today, about a week later, they punched through the other side, but about 100 feet farther. It's been one of those jobs for them. This is the second hole, first stopped. Then they had to pull out to replace the beacon battery, here it's about to go in. The other day, showed up when they were finishing a repair. Half of the vice on the right, don't know what broke but looks bad. Today they broke through.

While I'm waiting for a frozen dinner to warm up, posting this cookout recently, third time this summer. Oh wait it's Fall.

Another trigger post..... why couldn't Ford think of GalaxE instead? Just another bloated SUV, no Coupe eh? Old School here, proud of it, I'm not going to last. I'm just sprucing up this thread a little.

Very nice, impressed you have finished already. 😊 Spot Model still has my order on hold, not holding my breath.

Dead pedal missing.

Nice to see someone has a fix for that glorified curbside! Your next mission, if you dare to accept it, make real looking taillights. That's the main reason I'm hoping a whole new kit will be produced. My build:

Bother the wrong dude, get a result you don't like.

Last girlfriend cleaned

Be or not to be, that is too easy to pontificate.

The you-know-what seems to hitting the fan..... 1. One neighbor down the street got Carbon Monoxide poisoning, but seems to be recovering in some ways. Good neighbors helping out. 2. Next door neighbor (to protect the guilty with the name) Mr. South has snitched on me to the County for the second time, got a letter Saturday before attending a wedding. I'm good with Ms. North, she had a big Juniper cut down near her septic that I pointed out, she's cool. Mr. South has a massive grudge with me, which I can't explain because of forum rules. 🤐 In the second complaint the pictures are taken from his front porch, not the street like the first time, which was dismissed. I found pictures I took to show the County that he installed two mini-splits without a permit, right after the (again rules) happened and I trolled him. He had to cut a massive vine down to access the condenser units, so now the view of my Shipping Container bothers him, Ms. North let the backhoe drive around to pull it back. The funnier thing, they moved into town almost a year ago, basically abandoned the property. Vacant, not even being rented like their other properties. Then being curious, I looked at the public accessible County Global Information System, of their new house in town, the first layer shows no structures, the latest arial photo shows a finished house and garage, makes me think no permit for that too, hmmm.... Need to go in through the City's portal for "how to submit [gotta love that Power word] a public record request." Good thing I learned how to use the government websites for work, now it's to defend myself. That's how I know he didn't snitch on the one delivered about a month before mine up my street, plain sight on a vacant lot. Isn't bothering me, or him, or the County drone who drove by three times for harassing me. Today he fired up the mower, but didn't do anything with overgrown trees, so I need to call the Fire Department to evaluate my risk from Mr. South. A sailboat has also sat in the same spot for way over 16 years (any old satellite pictures are too pixelated). 3. How sad that my older brother was at his only daughter's wedding, and she didn't want him near her, not the walk, ring, pictures, nothing. Dead ex-wife's sister sold our mom's house, so he thinks she likes him. Mr. Dark Cloud now thinks I'll listen to his drama. Since mom died he showed how much he hated her, I'm done. 4. Still haven't worked on a model. Should clean the bench. 🫣

I just pulled up a chair.... 😳 So there is a limit on curves, putty to the rescue.

Second picture Chevy C-10 in back. 😁 Those are tricked out. The turbo come off a locomotive? 😳 The dash should trigger the anti-Lambo shredded carbon-fiber decal folks. 😏
