I bet that's fun having a lathe! Someday when I have more space, I'd love to play around with one of those

[aw12345]

Mill is even more fun, I just borrow one of those when the need arises

bummer, are you gonna use the brakes ?

[aw12345]

Drive shaft is made, need to make a new mount for the aluminum driveshaft bearing housing, after that it's trail time.
Hasd hoped to get thye 4:1 gears early this week, won't be here till some time Friday, kinda sucks but oh well will start on that Sunday. Might have some extra time to work on the transfercase next week depending on how Jury duty pans out.
Looks like Saturday will be spend at the Hammers, going there without my bud Fred, he's busy swapping a LS 3 into his Jeep.

If you get called in on a case at jury duty, all you have to do is tell them you can't wait to be on a jury. When they ask why, tell them you know you'll be great at it. You can tell if someone is guilty just by looking at them. DISMISSED! Lol

[aw12345]

We get paid our regular wage for sitting on a jury so it isn't so bad

Dang, that's nice! I don't get paid squat when I'm on Jury Duty. But I actually kinda like sitting through the court cases, it's kinda like law and order if it's an interesting case. Guns, drugs, all that stuff. haha Would be better if I got paid for it.

Driveshaft tinkering done.

Spend most of the day hanging out with my bud Fred, watching his tinkering on the silver bullet. The V8 is sitting in there mighty pretty, most of the stuff he has figured out, like his oiling problem fix and oil pan mod. Simple is always better.;
Gonna spend tomorrow working on my tigging aluminum skills.
Also want to go shopping for some aluminum to build a hood and some other fancy pieces for my ugly duckling

[aw12345]

Always a brain fart lol. With some modification to the top frame it will work. Would require new light bar mounts of sorts or simply make it removable. Would be cool or warm for winter use and keep the weather of the interior.
