Good Morning!!!! 70F @ 6:00AM. Sunny. High 97F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.
I think your siding would be safe with the salt gun, Ron. It’ll barely put a hole in a sheet of aluminum foil, but it did scuff up what was left of the stain on a wooden table top I use outside. The video Don posted shoed the guy shooting himself in the hand, but I wouldn’t make a habbit of it...
I’m a charter member of the two-left-feet club, having bungled my way through several embarassing rounds of dance classes with various iterations of lady friends. I think I’d rather go to the dentist than sign up for another one, so I hope your adventures are good ones, Don.
Sounds like your uncle was badly taken advantage of, PJ, and now has a horrible mess on his hands. On one of the hoarder TV shows a few years back, a local volunteer group was contacted to help with the cleanup. Maybe there’s something like that in your area? An LDS friend of mine went to homes flooded out when levies broke in the Sacramento Delta areas a few years back to clean out the debris. It was done through his church, so there’s another possible source of help. If you end up getting roped into doing it, my friend said he used a scarf onto which he sprinkled cologne before tying it over his nose and mouth to help him deal with the stench. But hopefully it won’d come to that.
Made a few touch ups to the paint on that motorcycle frame yesterday. The idea to use paint instead of powder coat is already paying dividends because the touch ups blended in almost invisibly. Then I rounded up the parts for the forks, and bead blasted some of them to get off the oxides and leave a nice polished surface. Gave the same treatment to the rusted Honda gas cap, and used the same paint on it, which is very fuel resistant. Found the new set of bearings I’d ordered a while back, and will get those installed this morning before it gets too warm to work out there.
The big laptop is freaking out again, and attempts yesterday to revive it weren’t successful. I’ll have another go at it this afternoon, or maybe it’ll be siesta time?:laughing:
