Random pic thread.

Several years ago my dad retired from being a pipefitter. He gave me a metal box of his old stuff that I took to my shop and forgot about it. Came across the box before Christmas and looked inside and holy sh!t there was some good stuff in there. I was about to buy a new cutting torch but found a brand new industrial model in there. Cuts sooooo nice. There were also some oxygen and acetylene regulators in there. I sent the acetylene one off to see if it could be rebuilt and man what came back was shocking. Looks brand new and the other regulator is getting rebuilt.

Yup I'm jealous, could definitely make large useless pieces of metal into smaller more useless pieces.
He was talking about taking 25 thou. Cuts on the radius on a smaller unit......Lord knows what this guy can roll off.

He said those where quite blue and stung a little in the wrong places!
 
Tried hauling out a clearing today, until it got too slick! Like waterfront? Working a lot beside this [abandoned?] house. Tried to find the property on the map, but only got close. So, it could be anywhere from 600K, to 1 Million. House property is not for sale.

Oak Island? Buy that sucker ..... There's Templar gold, pirate treasure, the Holy Grail, and Williams Shakespeare's notebook buried there!
 
Picked up a semi-famous ride toady! Most should recognize it. Going to do some clean up and maintenance but that's all she needs. Maybe do a body swap down the road.

Awesome. Didn't know it was for sale.
 
You shoulda got a gasser. I heard they are the hot new thang :p

Nice truck! Only thing I'd recommend is to swap to some 18" wheels when those 20s wear out. Love that color.

Is it a step up from your old Cummins in any way? :laughing:
Well, it probably won’t produce diesel going down the road like my old Cummins did, but the comfort factor makes up for that!

are you recommending swapping to 18s due to cost or something else? They put new tires on it today, so hopefully they will last a little while.

Cheaper and easier to find would be my guess.
