Gonna start working on the OCD storage solution first thing Monday morning. [emoji847]

I just can’t seem to stop buying more Milwaukee tools. I upgraded to the new fuel version of the sub compact bandsaw. It has nearly double the cut space and doesn’t power out at all. I was working with pvc conduit and the cut speed is amazing. I’m still methodically replacing old corded...

ScottS built a set for one of his skis, I just can't remember if it was in his Matrix or one of the many modified SJ's that he built. I only have pics of his original build and it didn't have them at that time.

Moving sucks! We had everything set to close on our current home in the morning of Aug 15th and then close on the new home the same day, just in the afternoon. 3 days ago we get a call from our lender that they cannot find anyone to do the appraisal and had been sitting on this info for 10...

I can attest to the money, time and lack of progression. I botched my first tray job and ended up taking out 32lbs of waterlogged foam and replaced it with 28lbs of fiberglass mat and resin. It may have been dry foam in the end but the ski wasn't any more than 3-4 lbs lighter than when I started.

The Yamasaki coil is currently back ordered so options are slim. I've been getting pressure to do large batches of reman coils but I'm low on suitable cores and in the middle of packing up and moving. New shop won't be built and useable for a couple months most likely.

I'm not sure what the supply chain is looking like these days but Jetmaniac used to have clean used OEM stators available from time to time. Aftermarket components are available via ebay but the reviews say that the chinese knockoffs are not worth the savings.

I was offering those services briefly but stick to manufacturing cable an such now. My products, such as coils, cables, switches, etc are all available through Jetmaniac. Last time I checked, JSS, (Jetski Solutions) is the OG for rebuilding electrical systems.

Interested to see where this goes. I am a huge fan of PSB Alpha tower speakers and have a Denon 1000 W 7.1 AV receiver that pushes everything quite nicely. The last house didn't have room for the multi rears so I was forced to try out in-ceiling speakers for the first time. I went with 8" HTD...

Great story! Proud of all three of those guys for sure.

Pretty similar to the etrailer options but Northern tool and Tractor supply have some decent gauge steel fenders in stock. They are everywhere here but this is farming country. https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/NTESearch?storeId=6970&ipp=48&Ntt=fender...

I forgot about the finger belt sander. I bought the corded version and it’s been awesome. It’s bulky though so I need to look into the cordless version.

I picked up the Milwaukee M12 Cordless Inflator about a month before they released the M18 version. :confused: I have used it several times now. It's real handy and fits under the back seat of the truck but it's slow to pump up anything with any real volume. I also picked up the Milwaukee M12...

My first standup was a 92 SN with a ported 701, coffman pipe, Aluminum AC racing pole and a whole bunch of extra goodies. I was moving back to my home town and spotted it on the side of the road as I passed through some random little city. I paid $2k not running and tossed it in the u-haul on...

I like those bunks!

Got an offer for both skis that we couldn’t turn down so this ski is sold!!!!

Got a call today with an offer we couldn’t refuse so these are both sold.

Sold!!!!!!!!!

The silver lining in all this is that we found an awesome new home just days afterwards that puts me dead center in the middle of my service region. We had been looking for almost 2 years to get me closer to work but I was holding onto our current location for the turtles and the pond life. Once...

Well, you guys wil llikely be estatic but there will be no more Turtle pics from Turtle Island. It's the end of a wonderful chapter for us but it's time to move on to other interests. I set up a camera on shore to catch some close-ups of the turtles feeding on watermelon and one of our...
