Hooked up the tiller to the Satoh and tilled the lower potato, onion and squash garden. I need to let the tilled dirt dry a couple of days and run it again.

Dad had come out for a visit and got a lot of stuff done on the car. Installed the drive shaft with new U joints. I didn't know about the whole 1310, 1330, 1350 thing and just let them give me what Autozone's computer said for a 67 with a 327. Obvious they gave me the wrong U joints that were too big. Made a trip back and got the right ones, but at home discovered that it looked like a returned part and one needle bearing was missing. . Finally got what I needed after third trip to the store.

Finally got what I needed after third trip to the store.

Seems like every project I do takes more than one or two trips to get the job done.

Rained last night. I tilled the garden today, I did it with it damp so the tines would dig in. Hopefully it will dry enough tomorrow to run another till and plant potatoes.

Replacing my buddies golf cart motor with a "NOS" one, that sat outside for a few years.
Disassembled to clean it up and remove the rust.
Of course the nuts on the studs were so rusty that after the first one snapped off I cut the rest of the nuts with a Dremel tool.
Cart is new enough that brushes are hard to find and expensive.
So I cut off and ground down the old stud leaving just enough of the head to weld onto a new bolt/stud.
Fired up the TIG welder for the first time in a couple of year to do it.
Found out I am now essentially blind, just cannot see to do a decent weld.
Should still work, but I will not be showing it off.

don't feel bad, it's common and I've got the same problem. Can't tig anymore, can see well enough to lay a short mig bead, but anything longer than 1.5 inches and I have to stop and check my aim.

 

[cheveslakr]

Bit of work on the trailing arms for the vette, then started the prep work for a mini-split add to the shop........the panel is out of space and rather than change the last 2 breakers to wafers, I talked myself into a new and bigger panel. Prepped everything I could and tomorrow I'll do the swap. This way I'll have several available spots for future.

No heat or A/C in the shop currently?

 

[cheveslakr]

Nope, can't figure out the furnace and this will give me both and it's something I wanted anyway.

 

[kmakar]

If I may, I'd suggest you lay a pleated filter on top of the filter that comes with it. I did it at my last place (2 ton mini split) and I think it benefited with less being sucked in.

 

[cheveslakr]

Yeah, my furnace filter needs changed at least 4 times a year and it doesn't run constantly, so a pre-filter is a must on the mini.

 

[Shovelrick]

I had a few discussions with Mitsubishi and Gree tech support (I'm a dealer of both) about a better filter or using a pre filter and was told by both of them that using anything other than the filter designed for the unit will damage the unit, I installed a 2 ton mini in a 2 story high dispatch tower at a local cement plant that gets dirty way to often, Kevin if you say it worked well doing that I'm going to give that a try at the cement plant

I did not do great in my welding class because I can't see well anymore.
