I picked up one of those used Cricut machines. Like I need something else to distract me... Going to see if I can do some logo stuff that I've had rattling around in my head. Can't do volume but maybe onsies and twosies.

Started downloading the design software today. We'll see where it goes. I'll mess with it tonight.,

Yeah Fred, I like to stay busy. If I have two or maybe three small jobs in my shop per week, I am happy. I have just a few regular customers, and that's the way I like it. Gives me more time for my Projects. I do try to help the single, divorced, widowed women from my Church. I hate to see them taken advantage of by the local Repair Shops.... :thumbsup:

Same here I have a lot of old single gals around that I help keep their lawn mowers going and a bit of car work.
MIL just text me and looks like I'm doing some work on her car today instead of the minibike.
 
Morning, hot one here today, need to get some fuel for the tractor so I can mow some more.

Saw that the Mcgregor match is off.... And the Tyson vs YouTube is off as well. Anyone ever reveal what his "inflight emergency" was? Figure he's into certain organics...wonder if it was a panic attack?

I will never watch anything mcgregor... the tyson thing is pushed back to december.. he had an actually medical issue but i can't recall what it was.. i wish he would call the thing off, but i would kill to see Paul get beat to piss

Went to his site to order, only smalls available. Like that shirt better, also has the Crusher Camaro on it. Speaking of Chev's I saw the 2025 El Camino, nice that they're putting a V-8 in it and weird I think it will have AWD available? I'd have to see that one in person, not sure if I hate it or not lol!

El camino with AWD is interesting to me.. i would like a smaller truck and being in michigan AWD is a must for year round driving... just took a look and it looks like they are making it small like a aussie Yute.. which isn't bad but a decent sized bed would be cool

Promoters keep throwing money at him...

Yeah.. i can't stand the guy.. i like fighters that don't act like complete assholes outside the ring.. plus the guy supposedly is worth millions but all his clothes look like he shops in the teen boys section..

at 1/3 the price i'm ok with that... people should look at the label on their american flags they wave as they call themselves patriots :) "Made in china"

The point I need to make is that the reason Frieburger was upset with it is that people buying them off Amazon are wearing the cheap ones out stupid fast, or shrinking them on the first washing etc and trying to turn them into HIS website for exchange or return. That’s where the issue lies.

Saw him wearing one on an episode, didn't know it was his shirt and that he sold them on his site, maybe when this one wears out, gets a lot of comments and the sneers I love so there's that

They restock often, I had to wait I think 3-4 days for my size to come in stock.

The wind chimes are just startin' to jingle outside. Weather geeks guess 45-50 mph gusts in nearby areas today. That's Spring weather, not June Gloom! :wtf: :lol:

When you figure it out…. I might have a job for you haha
 
Not too excited today. Slowly picking away. I need a nap. Guess i could stretch out in the office recliner. Find a youtube video to help me relax.

Anyone use konk automatic dispenser? Tried to find refills, $43 a can on the amazon. Ouch. Suddenly its all gone.
 
Got windy, black clouds moved in. Now its sunny. No rain yet.
 
Progress

Found that there are dimples in the firewall where the V8 plate attachment studs are.

Also, located the attachment point holes in the floorboard for the pedal pivot.

The indent on the plate matches the same point on the bulkhead connector.

Need to patch up the other trauma from the old pedal setup. Maybe tape the engine bay side and JB Weld the holes?

What's a workaround substitute for the foam firewall gaskets?

Thinking of going to find some craft foam... but don't want that if the stuff like I have from DMT is somehow moisture resistant?
