I'm jealous. My grandsons' have a designated pee tree in their backyard. If I step out to take a leak behind the barn, I'd probably get arrested.

Something to consider on the new lot...

bigdano711 · 03-23-2024, 05:37 PM

Picked up a couple sets of these. Will I need to use the infamous o-ring or toss it? Oh, I started a leak by "fanagling" the JFG pipe on....such a n00b

When I'm out i my garage (not connected to the house) and don't want to bother with going back inside, I use a plastic coffee can to pee in, then dump it outside. I'm sure no one has ever thought of this before.....

Adjustable levers with the matching front master cylinder. Thanks to those that suggested them!

**cheesy** · 03-24-2024, 08:52 AM

Not bought, but given to me by my daughter and SIL. A HobbyZone Duet RC plane and a Moebius Models 1954 Hudson model kit.

I have a small RC copter I haven't flown since my last surgery and I sucked as a chopper pilot...many died. The weather looks to be blah this week, so no flying the plane for a while.

I went through the model kit and it's going to be somewhat of a challenge, though less so than the 1:35 scale sidecar rigs I was building before the unpleasantness of February 8th. Very detailed, very well designed, and I don't ever recall getting a model kit with full color instructions. I think 1954 was the last of the real Hudsons. They became re-badged Nashes in 1955.

There are a half dozen kits in front of it, so it will be awhile before I can get to building it.

25' of metal fuel line and various fittings. I'm converting the Corvair to electric fuel pump and the Corvair Guys say "NO RUBBER LINES IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT!!!"....even though Chevy did it. Fine. I'll play.

I bought an open air outhouse. Actually, just the ABS seat, which fits nicely on a 5 gallon paint can. Ultralight, ultraportable, perfect travelling accessory. Under $7 including tax. Bags, paper not included.

Been eyeing one of those "JFG Racing" replacement exhausts for my Templar but I'm not 100% sure one will fit my engine. Versus a Hawk or TBR7. There's even one for sale on here. But a local auction site I lurk on had one. Looks new in box. I bid and won it for $33. Going price is $98 on Amazon. Going to pick it up tomorrow and will find out if I wasted $33 or not maybe this weekend.

My tire finally got here. It took 5 days to walk it from Cedar Rapids, IA to Elburn, IL. I can drive that, round trip, in about 6 hours. It wasn't the seller, it was USPS.

Mrs. C was looking out the living room window and called me to watch as our substitute mail carrier tried to deliver it to the wrong address three times.

My ex-BIL and ex-SIL work for the post office. He's highly intelligent but she's--not so much.

Ordered some new head bolts and a steel oil separator plate for my mid 90's JDM Subaru engine rebuild project.

New motorcycle, maybe two. To be continued........
