Paul, I was curious about those change gears on your lathe the other day. Were you trying to get a specific thread size on the lathe that you couldn’t get with the gears that you had ? Glad they had the gear that you needed !
On my lathe (Jet GHB 1340a) there are 3 possible gear setups for cutting threads. One does most imperial pitches, one does the remaining imperial pitches, and the last is for metric threads. Levers select the pitches within each gear setup.

Got a press here that still uses low and high stage hand pumps, and the handles stick out at just the right height to murder knee caps. It's ripe for conversion, but I'm very interested to see how you mounted the bottle jack. Did yours come with a foot control?

Is the cylinder separate from the pump and connected by a hose, or is it basically a bottle jack?
If it’s separate, you’ve got lots of options. I just hooked up an electric hydraulic power pack to mine. It has a foot switch, and works great. I had originally replaced the hand pump with a pneumatic powered pump, but like the electric much better.

After my trouble looking below my engine yesterday, looking for a good endoscope, that has it's own monitor that can record. Don't want one to connect to phone. Any recommendations?

I have this one, and am very pleased with it.

How do states come up with these weird laws?
Do the people that write them live only in town houses?

Time to get creative with how to make the piles burn fast/hot so they finish in the time allotted :unsure:

I had a couple large sheds to demolish, I asked the local VFD if they wanted to make a drill out of it. The chief said that they couldn’t burn buildings any more due to insurance requirements. I told him that I would burn them myself, to which he pointed out that while I was allowed to burn, there was a township ordinance against burning structures. I asked for a suggestion about how I should proceed. He said to start them burning very early in the morning, so by the time they might catch someone’s attention, they wouldn’t be structures any more, just a trash fire. That’s my kind of bureaucrat!

Hi, Don, maybe your 2 ships “passed in the night”! Anyway, I just checked and Michelle’s ship is now docked back in

P.S. The new knee is healing up nicely, and I just confirmed in a meeting with the surgeon yesterday that my surgery for the second knee on April 2 is still a “go“. How is your knee coming along, Don?
The knee is good did a bunch of stairs on the ship - we were on the 9th floor, food was on 11th and 5th floor.

Coffee is cooling in cup. 30° with partly cloudy skies this morning, Heading to 46° with SW winds. Yesterday was a good day to do some work in barn. Put a receiver hitch front of Mule. I have a way to pull Mule out from front if it gets stuck. NASCAR race was entertaining. Today I will start a project so I can use the Log Tongs on tractors. Its been hanging in barn since I got my Kubota. Had no boom pole off back of tractor. Will start work on make one that will work. Need to go around my 4 buildings and make sure melting snow has a place to drain.
