55°F and light rain this morning, going all the way up to 59° today ... which is where it is now. Heard one of the voices on the radio this morning use the "s" word for the first time this season with regards to Friday's forecast, but only for areas north of STL. Not interested in any of that stuff just yet.

Big thank you to all the veterans who've served their country with honor, regardless of what country that is.

The new bender is operated by a variety of direct drives, gear boxes, and screw drives. This one is a stationary head assembly. We do have another one with a rotating head assembly in our facility in Texas (which is currently being moved to a new location), but not here in St. Louis. All nine of our other older benders are electro-hydraulic.

Here's a YouTube video I found of the same model we just bought, doing fixed radius bends and a variable roll bend. No idea what's making that constant noise in the video, but it's not the bender. You can hear the occasional "whirring" of the motors, though.

Good afternoon! A very pleasant 69 now. Supposed to work it’s way down to the low 40’s for a high this weekend. The “S” word is in the forecast. We have not had a single fire yet this season. It has been mild enough to not need the wood burner. May change this weekend.

Thank you to all the veterans.

Gee RNG, we’re you thinking about coming out of retirement if someone would pay you to ride a motorcycle?

Everyone stay safe out there

Kale in the garden and I
Found some volunteer dill growing by the house. Looks like a good opportunity to make some dill pickle kale chips.
