Hey Carl Are you gone use a both inner and outer bearing on the blower drive? VIP now? K ............................. Taildragger&fenderless
yep two and the seal on the inside to keep gas fumes out of the bearings actually Tom most of my drawings start out as chalk on the blackboard at my 50's table where I sit and tink.....
One of these days my shop will look like that.......NOT! This picture gives a little idea of my "shop". Just add two motorcycles and the mig welder along the left side and assorted other stuff stacked on the car that were moved out for the photo shoot and you'll get the idea.
great lookin shop Tom, I just hafta keep mine neat and it still takes me hrs to find anything............
That is why mine usually stays a mess! Search time is the same regardless! BTW, I posted a color drawing in my thread of the lakester. You don't have a spare flatty that would fit in it do you?
I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, she said I was doing fairly well for my age. <VAR id=yiv741644077yui-ie-cursor></VAR>A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking her, 'Do you think I'll live to be 80?' She asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?' 'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!' Then she asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?' 'I said, 'Not much... My former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!' 'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling or drag race a flathead FED?' 'No, I don't,' I said. She asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex, go bowling ?' 'No,' I said... She looked at me and said, 'Then, why do you even give a shit?'
Just finished the whole thread. 1- God that looks like fun; 2- Awesome work/craftsmanship; 3- God that looks like fun; 4- Love the flathead tech; 5- God that... you get the idea...
