That's awesome, yeah future service is huge for us, since we do both new installs and a lot of service. I work that into boiler installs with extra isolation valves and unions for example.

ChrisK Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Our new home has a side entry and a double deck to our pool. The upper deck to the pool had so,e weird upper structure like a cheap-o arbor like frame work. I spent two days over this weeks vacation power washing the deck and today bought some 5/4 16' PT lumber to replace all of the railings. The cuts were interesting and involved a lot of different tools. My Festool HKC55 and T18, my Dewalt DCF887, my Makita DJV181 and XRJ05, a antique firmer chisel I got off of eBay, love that thing, my new mallet and a framing hammer. Lots of fun, many interesting miters, some heavy demo. More pics to follow, I am hoping to finish the lower deck rails tomorrow and hopefully put a coat of Thompson sealer stain on.... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeldfabNeil Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 I myself didnt really do much with tools today. My Lincoln vantage did come in handy today at a Memorial Day event. I was just gonna stop by for a few minutes. Heard they were haveing generator troubles. I didn't really care at first. After I thought about it I offered they could use my welder as a generator for there service. It's truck mounted an I was already there. It was a little loud but did the job for 3 hours. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigmikez Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Changed out a fuel pump on my buddy's Tahoe yesterday 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fm2176 Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Had an Army cop tell me that my company's deuce was deadlined due to the left side head and tail lights being out. I picked up a couple bulbs after dropping a graduate off at the airport and used the trusty Gerber to remove the tail light cover. Other than that, the only tool I've used so far today has been Statcrunch for my Statistics exam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my 1998 Jetta and a buddy's 2001 Jetta, there's an access plate like someone was actually thinking about the future maintenance on their vehicles. Because pulling a tank is a pia compared to the access cover! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Not really work today but tomorrow I will be at the Weirs for Bike Week. I am partnered up with another guy for a commercial enforcement check point hopefully preventing bad people from going in and causing problems. There are a bunch of guys from my Troop that will be assigned over there at multiple points in addition to patrol units from all over the State. I'm actually tickled pink because every year I get assigned a patrol beat and am down there for multiple layover shifts till 0200 ish so this year only one shift and I'll be using a creeper and a mag light and hopefully that's it and will be home by 9pm. I have a first Dads day weeken to enjoy! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much everything. Because of recent events outside and inside the USA we are being tasked with this job. More likely than not results will be mechanical issues however it won't be too surprising if we find other issues too. Hopefully it'll just be plain quiet, I'm not anticipating seeing too many pieces of equipment trying to get into the Weirs so... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnarlyCarl Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 I made a video, thought I'd give the vlog style a shot, incorporate a few tools into the mix as well, any critiques, feel free to share... I want to expand on this, give an insight into what this trade involves and include the tools of the trades as well... We'll see where this takes me... . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
