Random pic thread.

I've lost a 5/16 quarter drive with drill driver adapter! Last week attempted a Roof repair, & had it, drill driver, various screws, in a magnetic bowl. Getting off the Roof, I had too much to carry, so I gently, dropped the loaded bowl, onto a set of bushes, eight foot below. Half the things in the mag bowl, bounced out. They were all right there next to the bowl, Except the 5/16 & adapter! Even with a BIGGER magnet, I Still haven't found it! :poop:
 
Forgot I took this pic, Wednesday evening, around 7 pm. Withe the scattered showers everywhere, Mount Holly got a Rainbow! Looks like it landed behind the Food Lion Shopping Cnt.!

Did a little machinery moving today. Well kinda a lot. A friend of mine has built a nice little machine shop in his garage, so then he sold his house. His new place doesn't have a shop, so we put everything in storage for a few months. We used my skidsteer as a pusher/puller/forklift/etc. Once we unloaded the mill into the 10ft wide storage unit, it really looked like we might have to push it back out.

Fortunately we're both pretty conniving engineer-machinist types, so we found a way to make it work.

Also, I feel like Ford could find a better way to describe a circuitry issue instead of telling me my trailer just disconnected while I'm going down the interstate at 70mph :rolleyes:

Dammit, you just made me remember I still can't find my favorite, long 10m socket :mad:......I suspect I left it under the hood when I went on a test drive :(

Know what the most used/lost tool in the salvage yard business is?? A #2 Phillips screwdriver.

Hey Matt I spy a shaper in the corner.

Yep. Big items were the shaper, mill, and lathe. You know if the guy has a shaper he is hardcore! I need to make new friends who are in to golf or something. Would be a heck of a lot easier to help them move!

Tekonsha did the same when I lost my brakes on the way back from Potts last year. Turns out where Big Tex tied the electric brake wiring into a knot for the "optional" front brakes it came in contact with the bumpstop and rubbed a short in the line. That was the message on my Tekonsha controller
 
My Chevy is smart enough to tell me I have a "Brake issue" & "Brake Harness", when my brakes died on my trailer! It seemed to rotate between messages, but also allowed me to "Dismiss" the warning. I did have a broken brake wire.
 
Autopsy complete. Wrist pin seized in piston #6, breaking piston, probably got the valves on that cylinder also. Oh well.

A pic of the ported intake ports @Jeff B

I noticed on one exhaust port I had done that I probably should cut some out where the carbon build up is, interesting because it's got a swirl in the carbon, I guess that indicates it's turbulent?

Can't remember who has all the black vehicles, but saw this in Raleigh today...
