Maybe next time. We'll very likely be passing through Fruita in about 2 weeks or so. Black 2002 Explorer Sport Trac - keep an eye out!

Ever been to Goblin State Park in Utah? That place is crazy.

Built a rolling dolly for the pu cab I'm fixin' to turn into a roadster! My nephew is outta school & I'm gonna hire him to be my gopher so he can make a lil summer $$$ and give him a taste of some car buildin'!!! He already wants me to build him a car but I'm definitely gonna do it all by myself!!!

Broke a new Eastwood drum puller in the first few minutes and sent it back.Beat on the '40 ford rear brake drums on the A for a several hours until they finally came off. Found the brake cyls to be frozen,obviously the reason the rear brakes won't bleed out right? Apparently never driven after the hydraulic conversion , all new parts,clean, no brake dust. It sat for many years in Hermasillo Mexico however.
Went for a very enjoyable early Sunday morning ride on the Rustasuki.
Returned and got the brakes back together only to find they won't bleed out
any better than before

Last night Dan and I went to the shop and worked on mounting his fuel tank and lines. Got the mounts figured out and where the electric pump and regulator are going to go.

A few weeks ago I bought a commercial grade vertical metal cutting bandsaw and a 6 x 48 belt sander from a guy who was closing up his metal working shop. The belt sander scares the heck out of me because it runs so fast, and it has a 12 inch disc sander on the side that also runs way too fast. Last night Dan was shaping a piece of steel on the disc portion and the sanding disc exploded and it grazed his face. It knocked his safety glasses sideways on his face and put a good cut on his nose and cheek. I don't think he will have any permanent scarring as the cut wasn't real deep, but we are not plugging that thing in again until we can figure out how to slow it way down. If we can't do that we are going to put it in the dumpster so no one else will get hurt either. It's a shame too because it is a really heavy old cast iron one that you couldn't bog down if you tried.

Ouch..Don, that could have been very serious. So glad Dan wasn't hurt bad. You guys will figure out away to slow that thing down and make good use of it. Looking forward to more cool stuff coming out of your shop.
Good Luck.
