I was surprised when I was in London that I couldn't understand a word.  In Paris, most of the waiters, hotel staff, and taxi drivers spoke or understood English.  Paris Uber drivers...not so much.

Hell, DJ's command of the English language is better than mine...   :003:

Anyways, I got my final Electrical Inspection yesterday and the inspector was very impressed with the neatness of the Electricians work  and liked the way everything was labeled.







He even kept the GFI's for the wall receptacles near the electric panel and then fed the individual receptacles from there.



When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

Well, my original plan was to bring my 12K, 4 post lift from my shop to my house, but, the thing is too massive for my needs.



The footprint is 17'6" long and 14'5" wide and I really do not need anything that big so, I sold it to a friend and I ordered a BendPak HD-7W. It's 3"10" shorter and 2'5" narrower, perfect for my new shop. It also does not need to be bolted to the floor and can be moved around with the optional Caster kit.
I think it worked out good for both parties involved as it basically was an even swap.

Such neat stuff!!  Chain driven blower.  Rubber hose is a little scary.

Now why would you think that routing a rubber fuel line over a chain drive spinning a 6.000 rpm is bad?

Been back and forth with BendPak and I wouldn't have my lift until July so I ended up doing some research and ended up getting an Advantage Lift . In the end it was much better quality and higher GVW (by 2,000 lbs.) than the BendPak and a $1K cheaper and it will be delivered in about a week. (y)

It also came with a jacking tray, 4 drip pans as well as the casters; all extras from BendPak.

I finally managed to got my 16" Southbend lathe home. My buddy picked it up with his Kubota and set it in place for me. Just need to get someone to degrease it and paint it grey and then get the electrician to  wire it up. Looking forward to the day when I may be able to use it, Baby steps.....

Well Rich, you'd be proud of me; I managed to get my nephew to get my 1950 Southbend cleaned up and painted.
 It looks so much more modern now, I'm thinking circa 1965.   :003:





I still have the original Southbend collets, in their original Southbend plastic containers and orignal Southbend labeled cardboard box from 1950.
