Hey, guys.
Well, after my test post, and the answers by the curmudgeons and usual
suspects, I can see my new computer has been configured. I have been in Vegas for about a month now, taking care of business. Ready to go back north Thursday, and resume some metalworking projects, finish my boat, and get in some rainbow fishing. Got a couple of tons of stacked metal waiting assembly. Made some very good yard sale purchases here, as the economy is flat, and a lot of people are selling stuff off at very good prices. Got a Snap-On parts washing sink with tank today for $20, with ten gallons of extra cleaner. Will be posting here for a few days, then back to the home computer Thursday. Sorry, but there was too many messages to read and see what has been going on in the group, so will just start from zero. Steve Visit my site at http://cabgbypasssurgery.com |

I recently bought a Graymills parts washer (the real thing, not some kind of sink) for $40. Had to sell, with great sadness, due to lack of space. i Steve Visit my site at http://cabgbypasssurgery.com |

It stands on a medium sized barrel, has a sink type top made of formed steel, and a lid. IIRC, the cleaner is somewhat spendy, too. Just makes those jobs so easy when you want to get something cleaned up. Gas is dangerous, and dries out my hands to the point of cracking, not to mention the smell that lasts for days.

Steve Visit my site athttp://cabgbypasssurgery.com A long time ago (mid '70s), I used to rent a washer from Safety-Kleen. The rent was actually zero, and they only charged to come out and swap the drum. They charged maybe $15, and only came when I called. I have no idea what kind of deal they have now, but it was pretty good back then. |

It wasnt G Gunner I thought you just waited for summer if you wanted hot! Mark Rand RTFM Tuesday was 100F, yesterday a balmy 85F, today was in the 90s. I wasnt good for much today..I worked from 9am to 10pm last night, then picked up the ex wife at the train station after her 2 week visit with the grand kids in Utah, and didnt get home till 1am, then did the newsgroups till about 3am. Left for the job site at 9-10 am..its an hour drive each way and just got home..though it certainly wasnt one of my finest output days. Had to nap for an hour about 4pm Shrug..that stroke certainly did kick my ass, Im finding out as Im back to Manuel Labor again. But I digress..sheesh...by mid July..that cleaner will be putting out a nice 150F stream, because I set it so the stock tank is backed up to the south.
