How's everybody doing this weekend? How was your week last week? Anybody got any projects their working on, building related or otherwise? Summer plans? Etc.
Doing good working on a couple projects but messed one up. First time I’ve ever really jacked up pin holes. Used an old jig for a compact frame and man were the holes off!! I’ve never seen one hole be so off. I got the pins in but it looks terrible! So I just took it apart and now I gotta go get some Jb weld. Kinda nervous cause I’ve never did a Jb weld job before. Any way other than that everything is good 👍😅
Since I don’t use fetters to cut my tabs I’m lacking in that plastic material. I was thinking of maybe keeping my pins in and injecting the Jb weld into the pin hole area. Then going back and smoothing it out. Now I’ve never done this but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Well at least in my head it makes sense 🤣
I’m gonna try to do this first I have other frames I can grab material from so thank you Ram!
Bevel each side of the hole to be fixed, then put tape on the inside of the hole. Add JB Weld, cure overnight and then sand smooth, redrill. The only drawback in using JB Weld is you have to paint it to match the frame.
I did that Hawkeye and it didn't cure to the frame. I let it cure for 3 days and it punched it right back out as soon as the drill bit hit it. Did it on both sides and the jig I used is flawless...let's just say that I didnt mess the holes up to begin with.
This time of year, is really busy for me, garden is all planted now. I sold my bass boat last week, we bought another kayak. Making stencils for our Jeep (going to inter some Jeep shows this year}. Try to get a little building time in. OH, I spent three days grinding venison and pork making about 20# of sausage (half hot other half mild) and Mother's Day stuff yesterday.
Having every day, a Saturday I can't seem to get caught up on honey dos.
Yep, every night is Friday night and every day is Saturday. Still I have more projects than ever. I thought retirement would be easy. At least I am doing what I want to do and little pressure to get it done yesterday.
Not bad. Had a few looong work weeks including working through the weekend. Taking the wife out for mother's day and doing some projects for her that she's asked for help with. With what little spare time I've had, I'm trying to get my SCT-19 figured out so I can get it to the range for testing.
Long work week myself and trying to finish a project for Ram in my free time. Good weekend soo far, just busy, busy, busy. Plan to go to the State Fair here in a few weekends for the early summer pre launch (way less people). Then going camping in August with a few friends.
I gotta pull out all of my camping stuff from storage and take inventory of what we’re bringing and check our tents and shade covers/structures for mold etc. Storage is underground and ya never know. The wife and I have been wanting a bigger tent and if the other one has any mold damage we’re just gonna toss it. If not we’ll keep it as a backup/spare/friend tent etc.
Good, getting ready to host both families for Mothers Day. 45 project waiting on Rock rear rail, likely gonna order drill bits to start first MUP 1 in the mean time.
