More information than one could ever hope to acquire in a life time.

I'd have guessed a kids wagon an engineer designed.

Suns out, cool, and winds finally died down.
Now to go find the cover for the BBQ.

My old one needs a new starter and that is $600+ so ill just upgrade instead. The shop welder is from the 50's.

Snap on at half price makes it about worth it.

Don't like their larger hand wrenches, to thin and hard on the hands, but considering Sears Craftsman tools are turning to junk, not sure what I'd buy now.

Free is always good, the junk stuff makes good borrow out stuff.

Not that I'd want to live there or anything........
I've read some farms have ozone generators for the barns to control bacteria and the smell, ever run across one like that? Farmer in one article said it smelled fresh in his pigsty, kinda hard to believe.

Never liked SnapOn wrenches for that reason, too slick and skinny. I got my daughter a good set of sockets and wrenches from Harbor Freight a couple Christmases ago (she actually asked for tools! Wanted a good rechargeable drill this past one) and I think I'd get their Chinese tools over Sears Chinese tools now, feel good, fit good. Got a 3/4 impact socket set and breaker bar from HF, won't have to worry about breaking sockets on the bigger Harley bolts now.

I have to say I have yet to ride by a pig farm that smelled fresh.

Hi Moldy,
Good to see you and Al and Russ the other night.
That might be some newer technology that I haven't heard of yet but agriculture is always full of innovation. Hahaha.
Those barns do have significant industrial ventilation systems because underneath the entire barn is the sewage pit which is pumped occasionally, like two or three times a year. If they couldn't successfully vent those gases all the pigs would die, which of course means all fumes are vented to the atmosphere for you and I to smell. The worst is when they are pumping pits and applying liquid manure. Ooooofff.
