Thread: Happy Friday----Whatcha up to???

Tweet

The weatherman was half right all good, burned some fuel and highway miles Saturday . Sunday rain so I decided to mount the fire extinguisher I had stuffed behind the seat.

This friday, I'v got to put new head gaskets in my grandfathers lawn tractor. finish the frame for my gas powered compressor if I get the time. I 'guessed' when I built it and I'v had to modify it 3 times so far to fit the engines/ pumps on and had to buy taller wheels because of pump flywheel clearence so I bought wheelbarrow wheels, and had to get bushings to make them work on the 1/2" axle
