She's got a lot of her dad in her, she loves speed. I've done my

was a
Honda Super 90, made for street but we used them in the woods.-

Wrenching on these is the easy part. Finding parts that can be
modified to fit is another. We don't ride red, yellow, blue, green, or
$$orange$$, so parts require some r+d Actually the only new skill I
think I will require is welding, or just find a cheap local shop that
is willing to barter..- Hide quoted text -

Stick welding is pretty easy to learn, but if you are going to weld
aluminum and such, things get harder! I grew up in the country on a
farm, so when things broke down you didn't take it to a shop, you
fixed it yourself. We had everything but a machine shop, so that's the
only outside sort of work we had anybody else do.- Hide quoted text -

I would just like to be able to lay on metal, re-enforce frames, stick
steel to steel, etc... Aluminum and other alloy work I knew was a
little more complicated. Stick welding? Is that gas, like torches?

Wire feed is actually easier to learn than stick welding. Also you can get
nicer welds, especially if using inert gas as opposed to flux cored wire.
Go to http://www.lincolnelectric.com/ And peruse the site. Take a course
at the local community college. If they have a welding for artists look at
that one. Is a more condensed one than the ones for professional
certification. Plus the correct wire feed welder will also support going to
a MIG spool gun for aluminum. My wire feed is a Lincoln 180C. Will weld up
to about 3/16 aluminum.

If you are going to put your kid on a motorcycle on which you did
welding, I suggest you get some real, formal training in the art. It's
very easy to learn how to do bad welds. Your kid could be killed because
a weld failed.

Aluminum and other alloy work a *little* more complicated?

snerk

You shouldn't be getting welding advice from an abject idiot like Loogy.
I doubt he can tie his shoelaces properly .

Hey Harry, how is the weather in your area? We are getting a new
furnace and AC unit installed tomorrow. My wife planted 2 ornamental
grasses today.

Let me know how things are going with you and your wife.


It's hot as hell here. I know that for a fact because Dick Cheney just
returned from his future retirement home and reported that it was 98F
there, just like here! :)

Mrs. Harry is doing well, thank you. :)

Oh...my neighbor's kid skinned his knee when he fell off his skateboard.

Harry,

Can you take some photos of your driveway, new basement kitchen and
septic tank. Make sure you keep us posted on the routing and delivery
of every product you order online? You two are too funny making fun of
someone else's banter.

Maybe JimH can tell us about his new tractor and his new "herloin" knife
set or whine about all of his problems on his boat and basement, caused
by lack of basic maintenance. I certainly hope he posts when it is too
hot to go boating, and keeps us up to date why he only uses his boat 2
or 3 times a year.

I was oiling up my air compressor yesterday, and it made me think of
you...it was a little greasy and full of hot air.

You still pimping for your alleged son's alleged girlfriend, or do you
spend most of your time pretending to be out on your imaginary boat on
Lake Lanier?

If there is a worse place to be during hot weather than Atlanta, I don't
know where it might be.

Third floor of the Woodstock Middle School yesterday at 11 AM.

Mrs. Wave told me it reached 106 degrees before they dismissed school.
Three kids in her home room passed out.

If you compare the temp along the east coast there is very little
difference in temp. If you want cool temp. you need to do what JohnH
did and go to Seattle.

Oh, we don't really want to get into that whole can of worms.

Let's just put it this way - it's been a major concern for the past
six years or so and I told them that it would be when we built the
school.

Nobody listens to me. :)

Why would I want to go to Seattle for anything? The only thing

I didn't say anything about wanting to go to Seattle (and starbucks
sucks), I said if you wanted to get away from the heat, you need to go
to Seattle. It is HOT up and down the entire east coast.

IT is HOT, DAMN HOT.

My Tilley and Kool Tie, was actually very kewl.

Sorry to hear about your neighbor's son..........a skinned knee can
become infected.

Did I ever show you the picture of the 1916 Victrola I restored?

Hey.......how often are you cutting your grass now? I cut mine once/
week with a fairly new John Deere lawn tractor. I grew up in the
suburbs and the lot was about an acre.......I had to cut it with a
push mower. We could not afford to have someone come over to fix it
so my Dad fixed it himself. It was usually just a spark plug though.

What did you have to eat last weekend?

Cool.
