    Fulfilling a dream

    No trim pot on this board. This welder would act really funny sometimes feeding wire after the button was released. I'm wonder if that was the solder shorts I scraped off and those also caused the blown rectifier. #1 and I just got done running lights around the menu boards. They turn on...

    Fulfilling a dream

    It's an asian flavor inspired glaze that I've been trying out different methods of making over the past year or so and friday nights was almost perfect. I think that all it needed was some orange zest. . Just came in, I was going to do some welding today to make a spare tire mount and my welder...

    Fulfilling a dream

    At 8:19 this morning my cell phone rang, thought it was my Amish friend because that's when he's making morning phone calls after the morning chores are done. Nope, not that farmer, another farmer. We had stopped by and met him a few weeks ago, he runs a huge turkey farm and we wanted to talk...

    Ebikes "at work"

    Holmes County at Mount Hope. I was there for Progress days, big horse event. We're going to try to the trailer into progress days next year since they're being held in Lancaster next year. The year I was there there were 3 truck/trailers there and no one was selling food, only snacks.

    Ebikes "at work"

    I was at an event in Ohio, with 3000-4000 people lots of cash changing hands. At one fence there were easily 40 Ebikes lined up after dark, not a single one was chained.

    Groundbreaking Trike?

    His first post in this thread seems to imply he's just another joe schmuck bragging about a bike he ordered but hadn't yet received. But his last post in this thread seem to imply he's an employee of the company that builds the bike he's shilling. There certainly seems to be a level of...

    Groundbreaking Trike?

    If it was so groundbreaking it shouldn't need improvements. Maybe it's not as groundbreaking as you've shilled.

    Fulfilling a dream

    We're closer to being done. We met with the guy that runs the commercial kitchen we're renting to get the paperwork finished up so we can get inspected. He looked everything over and is sure we'll pass inspection. The only thing I need to do is build a screen over the serving window that can...

    Fulfilling a dream

    We made dinner in the trailer lastnight, we've been doing that just to get practice with serving. Doing it again tonight, making burgers and testing a couple of ideas using the broiler. We harvested all the peppers we could find today. I have the wife and kids working on getting things...

    I do my best to buy vintage tools to use in my workshop. The oldest one I have is a Sprunger Jointer made in 1958. I have a lathe from 1962, Radial Arm Saw from 1977, Table saw from 1987 a Rockwell full size Drill Press from 1965. Some of them needed fixed when I got them, the lathe, I'm the...

    Fulfilling a dream

    We took the trailer out for a test drive after putting new tires and suspension on it. Rides a lot better and is more stable. I fixed the tow mode in the truck, and pulled it up a rather steep hill without any problems, then took it down the highway. It handled perfectly, tracked straight...

    Show Us a Tool

    Huge isn't it? It weighs almost 1000lbs. I think I know which shop one of them ended up in. I had a local carriage shop fix the top to my large canopy. They were using an industrial machine, but not one like that. Nice young Amish man fixed it for me. Those going into Amish shops mean...

    Battery safety education - Only you can prevent battery fires!

    Only "I" can? Who gave me this responsibility? I do not accept it, neither do I accept the responsibility of preventing forest fires.

    Here's one probably most have never seen. Under 20 of them were made in the early 1900's. Not many of them are left, but those that are still working all reside in Lancaster. This one was in Holmes County Ohio in a harness shop that was going out of business. They had two of them and both...
