Thread: What are you working on?

@ Sloan,
beautiful sheen on your scales and I love the layered contrast on the scales and wedge.

@ AlanQ
Sometimes you just have to pay the piper, but hopefully you have travel points on your credit card.

Same here, Tech arrived and I'll have my sporadic heating and he found the problem...but no replacement parts till Monday. I do know where to kick it though!
Seems to be working
My friend with the plow was just here and I am again connected to the outside world.
The older we survive to, the more we know the meaning of "Friends!" PIF in spades!

Whole new electric furnace for me. Old one was leaking right near where the wires lead to the heating elements.
Yeah friends are very good to have, neighbour lent us an extra space heater. Electrician is done, plumber thinks maybe 1 more hour, well till it works hes gonna come back when its warmer to finish off, there are a few other issues but heat is the primary concern

Well... -16°F this AM and I was warm in the house for the first time in a long time. Temperature is now a stable 70°. No parts so he service man made a new igniter from the same sub parts from other devices, we tested it for an hour and now it is fine. I shall be happy to pay my bill!
God love a good technician of whatever trade !!!

Glad to hear she's up an running,Richard. Stay warm brother, the season's still early.

Put in a half-day on my room yesterday.. Got my fixture up in the corner. Engineered a way to hang the barber pole sign.
Some foam weatherstrip on the edges keeps the light from blowing out of the sides.
Worked-out nice, I think.



Finished the wiring for the LED's in the sterilizer cabinets...Bingo!



These cabinets are plenty old, despite the slick-black exterior. No telling where they had been during wartime.
They came out of a local barber shop.



Decided to omit the wireless switch and dimmer. I sometimes have lousy luck with such things, so I returned them to the store for credit and went more 'analog'



Got the mirror hung. Wotta pain! A little shelf under. Disliked the way it mounted, so some L-brackets engineered under!



Cooking a 'brunch' now and will try to get in there and finish to-day!
