Bring it! I'd love nothing more than to watch this town take on a good 3 footer. They'd probably declare a state of emergency and I could wrench for a week in my garage while they figured out what to do with the snow or just waited for it to melt.
Careful what you wish for..........................

On those pistons, couple of possible explanations for that number. Throw a mike at the piston diameter and measure it in metric mode; could be 36mm in dia. Second poss might be the alloy from which they were machined. Third, it could be last two digits of their part number. Just me noodling aloud here.

They just got more thoughtful is all when it comes to making their parts.

I'm not here with them. They're here with me.

Natasha and I are laughing hysterically at the Southern States' confusion about cold and precipitation.

I have lived in a hole I dug in the snow... so a few flakes and and some sub-zero temps are very survivable.

Since it has been like 10+ days without the high being above 0F, (I guess the high of one day was +1F) my garage motivation has been low. I went to the garage on Saturday but since I am too cheap to run the heater 24/7, the concrete is cold soaked and not overly comfortable to lay on.

Finally had a front move through and got some snow yesterday and the high today is 15F with upper 20's looking possible this weekend and MAYBE a 30 early next week!

Been staying inside and building models for customers as usual. I like replicating these old sales brochure photos.

Also picked up an arbor press for $40 off the marketplace. Need to find a nice place on my bench for it.

My buddy that I have had my Lathe at is moving and my lathe is getting evicted to my house, so I gotta clear some space for the big haul in a few weeks.
