    Biden Gets the Middle Finger

    When little Billy and Sally are told they cannot have the new toy or go on the trip they wanted thanks to Bidenomics no one has to coach them on hand signals!

    Larson SBC valve covers, $1,200

    I think I can probably buy aluminum spacers to modify cheaper than the raw material to make them, really. Folk in the USA do not get the subsidized prices of material all the countries (Illegally*) dumping products on us do. *With "The big guy" smirking all the way to the bank.

    Larson SBC valve covers, $1,200

    I think I will be using aluminum spacers and Corvette reproductions. I had to modify the heads to clear the push-rods with the shaft rockers, and that leaves a very narrow sealing surface. :( This is one of the reasons I let the Larson's go, I did not want to modify their bases to clear pushrods.

    Larson SBC valve covers, $1,200

    It looked like they would not sell but I finally got a bid. May get another but I doubt it, I should end up with my $1,200 after feeBay takes their cut. Now I need to figure out how to get a set of Corvette script valve covers to fit with the shaft rockers. They will be a bit of a joke, when I...

    What’d you work on today?

    Busy day, plowed some fertilizer into the ground with the toy Sears tractor. So planting and gardening chores are almost ready to begin in earnest. Then one of the neighbors young steers decided the tufts of fresh green grass on my side of the fence looked really tasty. It jumped over the...

    What’d you work on today?

    China-Mart has a 40" 1080p TV with the right cable connection for $135.00 That should work for me. It is not resolution of the screen that is an issue, it is trying to make put the tiny little characters on the task bar that define what the cursor is going to do next. Getting close to having the...

    What’d you work on today?

    Old system, I will have to look into what it can handle and are video cards still available for it. For now I will have to get by with the 27" I dug out of storage. That seems to be the common limit for an affordable monitor, but 48"-60" TV's are cheap. I'm guessing the TV's are lower...

    What’d you work on today?

    I'm not real good with operating PC's, do most things on a Mac. Somewhere there should be a way to look up max screen size capability. I did find a larger screen to use for now, but even bigger would be better.

    What’d you work on today?

    Dug out the PC I had used for running my CNC machines and doing CAD over three years ago. WOW, my eyes and memory have both failed in the last three years! Have to get a much larger screen, maybe this is what those super-size TV's are really for? :unsure: (Doubt the PC could drive one.) Going...

    Larson SBC valve covers, $1,200

    I put them on feeBay with a $1,500 starting bid. Over 75 looks so far and 7 watchers. I have also had questions and a guy trying to get his wife to Okay a bid. :rolleyes: I am semi-confident of a sale Thursday evening. If not I expect to get a couple of low-ball offers. I have to list higher on...

    Larson SBC valve covers, $1,200

    Not enough money involved for a loan. Bank won't even talk to you for less than $10K and usually $20K min. Supposed to have just sold a Triumph rolling chassis that gets me most of the way there.

    Francis Scott Key Bridge, I-695 Baltimore

    Don't laugh, I have seen the video of the guy sacrificing a foot to commit insurance fraud. His buddy/partner rams his ankle with a car, crushing it against a tree. They both went to prison, no pay-day.

    Francis Scott Key Bridge, I-695 Baltimore

    Just commenting on the law as written. Seems there is a worry of workers falling off bridges built over water. Probably rare, but the requirement is there. The contractor did not have a boat as required, there will be consequences for that.
