  1. Great work. I can't believe how quickly this one is coming together, you are really putting some work in. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  2. How do you want the underside finished? Looks like you may be able to year the gutter/fascia off above the window and bring that pitch on out. May not have to touch the roof above the door that way, just flash into that wall. If you aren't going for cheap/simple, you could always bring a new ridge line adjacent to the window wall and valley the roof lines above the door. It'd give you a tall ceiling and gable end with lots of aesthetic possibilities. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  3. Yeah, I don't understand why this would ever be a debate? The treadmill is moving, not the plane in relation to the environment around it, ie: the air. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Whisky

    Good work on the whiskepoxy. Duff, I like the Western Reserve 14 yr. It's not replacing my AE rye, but I'd say I like it better than the popular buffalo trace, eagle rare, etc.. I'm not sure if it's $100 better, but I'm definitely going to keep a couple bottles around. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Better be good Duff!! At least it's purdy...
  7. Nice looking truck, I'm also interested in hearing your thoughts on this drivetrain. I hope it proves to be durable and GM puts it in a lot of vehicles, could make a good swap candidate for off-road projects. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  8. Great looking mustang. I like that dash setup. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  9. I believe the NAPA in Newark gets all of the machine work. If you want to talk to the guys that do the work, call that branch. They were very reasonable on a set of toyota heads. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  10. Same, I had to replace every coolant line and fitting on our GL450. I just can't see the idea behind the plastic fittings, but it makes mercedes a 100,000 mile car to avoid. Also the engine bay is tight with twin turbos, so $500 in coolant system parts were a PIA to replace. Don't get me started on the intake tubes that crumble when you look at them sideways.

    Looks like it's readily available, I'll have to try it out. What are some of your other favorites, to get a sense of your preferences? Including other liquors? Apparently they haven't been around long enough to age much so their older stuff is sourced dickel. I'm sure some of the other guys here can give you comps from the same mash.

  14. Awesome, looks great man! I'll be following along to see your impression of durability etc.... Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Old elevators

    There are still several, most are service/freight elevators that only get used by the specific building/company employees. That's just in our locals work area I'm sure there are quite a few in cleveland, toledo and cincinnati areas. There are also some where you pull a rope up or down to drive the car.

  16. Agreed, but still tough to beat the value of this 14 when you want 4 doors and LS3 sounds. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Definitely, we often have to switch wires in the travel cable, or run all new. I've seen old installs with phone line hanging in the hoist way like the travel cable, moving with the car! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  21. I've done daily fasting, like eating nothing from 8pm to noon. What are your fasts like? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Hahaha, some of the phone/networking rooms I see in buildings are terrifying, I feel for you. Weeknd up working with a lot of phone/it guys because customers go to voice over IP or data lines and the elevator phones don't work anymore. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
  23. I had been blaming my fatigue on being old (38) and fat, but I'm really wondering now. We had Covid in late July, and while I was only hot hard for about 3 days, the fatigue was ridiculous. I walk a lot of stairs at work, as when I get called the elevator is broken. Buildings I've walked a dozen times with my tool backpack, exhaust me now. I have really been struggling to get any intensity in my workouts, it's frustrating. I'm determined to get it back, and looking into anti-inflammatory supplements for brain and heart.

    Old elevators

    Yeah, the crt was pretty cool for it's era. It basically showed inputs and outputs for each circuit. As long as you knew which row/column to look at, you could see your I/O's. That controller looks worse than usual, because it's actually a '90s O Thompson that we were in the middle of modding. Basically that's the group controller that handled dispatching for all the cars, and we had to integrate the new controllers as we replaced nine elevators one at a time, until we could switch to the new hall risers. Essentially integrating discrete with serial. I'll dig up some pics of that machine room, I'm pretty proud of the transformation. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
