Best Of

Got to wondering if Iran scrambled their AF response to bombings and found this video. 🤔

Happy Father's Day, nerds. My son got me this. More specifically, he got it running properly with me, if a little lean ATM.

Judging by the 4-lug wheels that's an 83 or 84? I had an 83 with those **** metric rims. Cost a fortune to buy tires for it.

79-93 (except Cobra R) all used 4 lug. A disc conversion should be in the cards.

@Vision She originally came with the 10 hole phone dials. Lost to the timeline. 17x8 phone dial replicas are made and will be purchased one day. For now, Ro bought a set of 17x8 ponies, powder coat black with a machined lip. You are correct, a 4 corner 5 lug disc conversion is imminent.
@ShawnOL 1985, buddy. Last of the carbureted.

Happy anniversary, Todd! @TRayB

Nice goats, Steve. @Stubble

Cool mower, @edz. Never seen one like it.

Bread machine = demerit points. ;-)

Absolutely correct Big time minus points. Plus points at 90 degrees to hot to fire up our coal/wood stove. And the fact that t was made from milk left over from making butter and made from from a combination of speltz flour and and another gran should add a bonus point. With a wood/coal ktchen stove we have two seasons, pizza and summer

A rickshaw mower? Who pulls?

Depends on who gets in the seat first. Great way to keep our son outside and the pony in shape

Oh. I thought it might be the other way around

Guess I may not be real smart, but man am I in better shape than I realized

No more tripped breakers (uncommon) and no more having to defer laundry because I'm roasting.

Today I hooked my Aillio Bullet R1 roaster to my Geneverse Homepower Two solar generator to roast instead of the usual connection to house main power. The roasts went well, the voltage appeared very stable, and my solar generator went from 96% capacity when I started to 64% capacity now as I'm cooling the roaster down after two roasts, one 9:21 and the second 13:23 and the ~30 minute initial pre-heat and ~5 minute between batch pre-heat. Capacity ended up at 63% by the time the roaster cooled off and shut down.

Looks like I have the capacity to do at least three roasts off the solar generator (battery bank) and I'll recharge it when I'm done with solar panels.
