Evening Woodrow's...

Long day at PK. Poured and stamped some paving for the beautiful people that live there.

Working up a bid this weekend for a multi-street paving job. This is a good one and I really want it.

I spent the evening crawling around on the garage floor ( my hoist won’t lift my truck with 80 gallons of fuel on board) servicing driveline components and changing filters. I didn’t get to far as I neglected to buy a differential cover gasket . So I drained the rear diff. cleaned up the surfaces , changed the transfer case fluid and replaced the rear fuel/water separator filter and replaced the sensor. Tomorrow I can hopefully get the transmission service done, along with the front differential service and front fuel/water filter…….O and the ccv filter too 🤪.

The effect was easy to achieve on wood. I put down a primer coat, and it turned glossy. I'm letting it dry, then I'll hit it with some 400 grit, very lightly

Evening Mick....we were right on the water at Juniper Ridge Marina. Strong breeze coming off the lake was nice, but when I got home, **** it's hot.
