What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

A spoon. If it goes south firewood.

 

Spoonman!!

 

Caffeine! Going to have to bring some firewood in this morning while getting a workout done. ( 6 now but going up to 24. ) Then, when it warms up a bit this afternoon, I’ll get some outside work done. Hope all had a great Christmas. We took some time to relax and do almost nothing but visit yesterday, watching a movie, and have a couple cold ones before a Turkey Dinner.

 

Thanks.

 

560 square feet, looks to have plenty of room for most people's needs. A sensible little home, not a flashy McMansion.

All that's missing is an 800 square foot garage

 

We're opening a new location

But not where I want it.

 

I’m going to need a hook knife to finish this out. It’s won’t be the worst. The wood was split a couple weeks ago which didn’t help. Probably won’t throw it in the wood stove.

Maybe put it on Etsy as an artisan handmade spoon. 99.99.

 

My Mom Would have put that to good use as it is...whaling mine, my sister's and my little brothers behinds!!

 

Lol. Maybe I should bring it to the next GTG.

 

That's the other use for it. My wife got the wooden spoon from her mom growing up. Guess who broke that wooden spoon over her knee when she grew up and had enough of that abuse?

 

I got my new o ring and upper radiator y pipe replaced this afternoon on my F-150. Both the o ring and the y pipe had updated Ford part numbers, so it's possible that the y pipe was changed to be better as well as the I ring that was definitely changed because it was an actual o ring now.

That original o ring wasn't really an o ring. It was a flat faced ring gasket that should've been an o ring. Pretty easy fix really, but getting the drain hose hooked up to the radiator drain was far more difficult than it should've been.. also the hose clamp on the engine hose neck gave me trouble getting the old one off, and the new one on, despite that new one locked on should have been easy to lock down. Whatever, it's all good now. I flushed a couple of gallons of the orange antifreeze and put in the new yellow type antifreeze in. Once filled run though and received up to get any air out, the yellow new antifreeze in the overflow tank turned essentially back to orange as the block wasn't flushed. It's all compatible, so it's fine. Maybe I'll flush I'll out in summer and get all yellow antifreeze in the system then?

Having just turned 100,000 miles I will change the serpentine belt in Spring, along with the tensioner
