Oh yeah - while you get to rub elbows in the General Committee with Senators and such - your truly slaving away on your 5 ton.
Wanna trade a paint gun for a pen and paper - but you have that gift bro and we have come a long way - did they all ask you to go golfing with the PRESIDENT YET ...
That Ga red clay is going to get all leveled out around the garage and the mess I made out in the power lines from the monsoon era.
FYI - by the time I get home and by the time it become O Dark Thirty - it only gives me about and hour and a half each night to work on the 5 ton - with the...
The delivery came - Swiss got the cargo cover off and loaded up in his truck - had one light load of paint mixed to keep after that dash that needs to be sprayed in increments - just keep after it till it comes into color without nailing it hard with paint and they watch the runs dribble off...
Indeed Swiss's 5 ton is plucking along - tenative plans to head to CAMO March 1st to take some detailed pics so I can get my head wrapped around the project - besides being able to get some good before and after pics as well.
Another good reason is I need to get out of here for a day and see...
Just need to be carefull shooting that dash - like the back sides of the drop side - lots of obstacles in the way that cause turbulance with the spray - when you think your getting the area's sprayed you also might be just as well creating huge runs when you go back and look at it - just because...
Swiss already had contact and got personally involved at this time which at this point still only was to handle what I was going through and also Papabear - we could not title or register our 5 tons.
It has NOTHING to do with only BMY HARSCO and do not assume it is only them that are in...
Well members - its been almost a long year since I purchased the 5 ton finding out I could not register it or title it in Georgia even with an SF97 and T22B form in hand.
This progressed into starting from the bottom of the totem pole and keeping exact records all along the way of all documents...
I switched to a 1.8 spray tip for the thickness (even though thinned) to get the coverage with this product - for those taking notes.
OK - seeing how the weather was fricking awesome tonight - I started with the interior (I was honkering to see it come to life) and it still needs the second...
Bring all ya got big boy :hammer:
Besides I might learn something - gotta do that before I grow up. Place to plug in by the garage and kick you out when its done and parked in front of the house again when PB and CAMO come to get it - now that is PRICELESS.
Ditto on the above advice - also when the military added any product for punctures the MFG's had specific ounces per tire size and it never states a balancer - BEADS is the way to go - use them all the time in the fleet trucks.
Commander Zouts ability to control the paint gun
Its absolutely amazing what CROWN can help you do when your a nutcase holding a spray gun.
ANYHOW - a word from out sponsor Now that the business end is done - got the interior taped off and yes I see that little corner of a data plate that...
I almost had RickF as a helper PB and you went and ruined it - he was almost a sure thing to head down to lend a hand - I bet I could have had his attention all through the re-do or whatever ya call it. He would have stuck around just to make sure I never picked up the air saw and started in on...
EH - I did have some beers MIA from the fridge - and that painting glass is a tale tale sign of DOC - that sneeky fella might have been in and out before I had a chance to see him.
Suppose to rain later tonight - so the plan is to clean off the windshield before I hear any more about it & get on the interior of the cab taping data plates - gauges etc all off and prepare for paint warfare. Do not want that liquid humidity interupting any paint if I were to shoot the...
While you all sit here and decide who has won - did I tell ya all one day I called PB and told him after the third day his WC was at my place and stripped down farther than what he imagined or wanted when he dropped it off.
So I call him on the phone and tell him - EY BRO - I shoved the WC...
When I spoke to Swiss earlier this past week indeed the weather played a big part in the house gathering. OUR lobbyist was still busting arse on work on the floor and calling and whatever else they needed to do so it was still kept fresh in their minds when it comes to voting on it - that is...
