We want a little info on that book, 2LZ. I didn't realize we had an author in our midst.
My son has written a book, but has not been published yet.

Ah geez, guys. It's nothing big, though it was a project I'd been working on for a year or so. I enjoy writing as a hobby and also do a wildlife column for a local paper.
I just thought I'd pen something satirical and humorous in a short book. Mom has been bugging me for years...., ;-) She's happy now.

An air line outlet kit for the garage. Plan on putting an outlet and hose reel near the garage door and a second outlet at the work benches.

That is handy! We have 3 compressors, different psi and volume for different jobs, and new hose reels in boxes, after several years, waiting for a mount project. Ironic?


The air hose we use, we buy in 500ft spools, made by flexilla, that makes up 5 100ft hoses. That darn stuff stays flexible in cold weather and wears like iron. We got rid of all the premium rubber air hoses.

Found a good used snapon 18v charger on the snap on truck....cheap! The mrs has a 18v snapon hot glue gun, and found her some glue sticks for polycarbonate off the internet.

Reordered fasteners, electrical connectors, and air brake brass today.

This was yesterday but i traded the car trailer from the F250 thread for a '72 Vw Beetle roller. I will still have use of the trailer and first chance at buying it back later. But really at this point if i need to haul something i can still get away with a dolly technically. So i will probably watch for one in the spring...that or an older 1 ton wrecker with a wheel lift.

A brand new Ural drum brake wheel in OD green. Never had so much as rim strip on it. I learned about the wheel when I bought my new mirrors from a former Ural/RE dealer that's calling it a career. I was quoted $250, which I thought was steep, until I priced one from a current Ural dealer. I stole it at $250.

My 3/8 aircat air ratchet shot craps. Bought a 3/8 ingersoll rand. Been converting to all I R air tools. Aircat is good brand, but I R is a tad bit better.
