Well I certainly hope everyone got as much of a smile out of that as I did...

Alright, guys. I’m reliving Billy’s 1976 Chicago concert running through my head. Thanks. Seriously, thank you.

I plan to do a whole lot more than just the carbs, so the extra room was a must. The CL450 I have waiting to get rebuilt spent the past 30 years out in a field on its side. I made the investment in the carb cleaning solution because once you've got it, you've pretty much got it forever. You can drain it out of the cleaner basin and run it through a coffee filter to get all the particulate out, then dump it back in. It's also safer for all the different types of metal, not just aluminum. Any drawbacks to the ultrasonic cleaner? Anything that it doesn't do well?

I’ve found mine doesn’t do grease well, but that could be what I use for a solution which is whatever’s handy diluted.

I'm going to set this up the same way I setup my parts washer. Get a high quality cleaning fluid that can be used forever, and I'm off to the races. I use mineral spirits in the parts washer, and it works amazingly well. Got the good carb solution for the ultrasonic, and we'll see what I can scare up with that. I think that between the heating function and the chemical dip, grease shouldn't be a problem. Ideally, I'm going to try to get as much foreign matter off the parts before they go into the dip as possible, so that I don't have to clean my cleaner every week.

A big fire pit.
https://www.ruralking.com/ranch-fire-pit-lattice I had it shipped to Rural King. Shipping to the house was ridiculous.

Nice. I've always liked those ones that you could cook on. I always thought it was a waste to load up a fire pit, put the torch to it and just watch all your timber burn down. Break out the burgers and sausages, and when it's all done and over, the coals should be just right for the marshmallows.
