I was keeping my youngest grandson today while his mom and dad
went to a funeral in Santa Fe. We were in the shop after lunch and I
was working on my wiring in the cab when I heard this banging going
on. I looked back and the little shop foreman was beating on the tail
gate with a hammer. I asked him what he was doing and he told me
"building a hot rod".
How can you argue with that from a three year old? I did suggest
that maybe we could "build" on piece of square tubing instead of my
tail gate. Then the little fart told me "easy turbo".
Didn't get a hole lot done so we went for ice cream. We had a blast
today.

Hahaha sounds like your grandson is a funny little dude. Its cool that you bring him out into the shop with you, gotta get them started early. My nephew does the same thing when i bring him out into my garage. Screw drivers and hammers are his toys of choice and usually end up in the weirdest places. Of course if there are any cardboard boxes around he likes to play inside those (with the lid open )... keeps him occupied so i can actually do something.

Ahhh, bitten at such a young and tender age
So what flavor of ice cream did you get him, Turbo

[I-R-POPS]

Yeah this kid is just like his dad, a wild child.

Old Iron, he likes a little ice cream with his caramel.

"he likes a little ice cream with his caramel"
Yep just what I figured, just not the caramel

[christcrusader13]

I like him! Good that he's doing something productive at a young age, much better than him getting hooked on video games!

Sorry about the tail gate

[I-R-POPS]

My son called and said when he was leaving, the wild child got up this morning at 5:00 and told him he was going back to Pops house to "finish his hot rod". It doesn't take him near as long as me to build one.

That's for sure. Cheap entertainment too.

I finally finished up my air supply system for the bags today.
Not really happy with the compressor. It's an Airmax 750.
They claimed it would fill a 5 gal system from 0 to 200 psi in 4 min 39 sec.
More like 10 min. I would go the York compressor direction but they are
butt ugly sitting on top of the engine.
I think I might put a 120-150 psi pressure switch on it instead of the
150-180 that it came with and see how it does. I don't need 180psi as light as this thing is.
