Re: PO has me PO'd
I spent WAY more on fittings and braided hoses than I anticipated.

Re: PO has me PO'd
I spent a lot of time when I was in high school using a Bridge Port Mill. Made a lot of cool stuff out of chunks of Aluminum/Brass that we had cast with our forge in school as well as some really awesome wood boxes. This was in the late 90's. Sad that most kids in high school will never know the joy(pain in the rear) controlling three dimensions by hand. Computers do it now and will even rotate the piece for you.
People only see the finished job not the work that we have put in to build and recreate these "projects" we have. Similar to you I own a 1905 Farm House. The only original plaster that is left is a 3 foot by 3 foot chunk that I just couldn't bring my self to tear down. It is covered by Quarter Sawn White Oak so I left it. Otherwise the entire house has been massaged and updated. No one understood the process and the total Love(hate) i have with the house now. Thank you for sharing all you do with the community! Sorry I am posting about a few pages ago about 106 to 108 maybe...

Re: PO has me PO'd
I really thought about it. I had them in a cart and everything from Wes. He has a lot of cool parts.
Just the thought of the fight that it would start when the CC bill shows up this month. I do have to say though, Last year at this time for Christmas my wife surprised me with the title to the Jimmy. I had the guys number in my phone for the Jimmy and she called and bought it for me... So there is that... She thought it ran and drove, and was really kinda upset that it didn't. Have a great day!

Re: PO has me PO'd
All the parts came in from unity, switch bezel, pillar mount (202), not received the actual switch itself...
[url=https://flic.kr/p/Q3utVH]  somehow, I have to rotate the mounting plate for the adaptor [url=https://flic.kr/p/NFUSb9]

Re: PO has me PO'd
Hey Jim,
I stop by frequently to check on progress here..  . Seems like you have things well in hand, so I usually just keep quiet and enjoy the pics. Kurt is around, seems like he is busy with his new business venture and spending time skiing with his kids.... -G

Re: PO has me PO'd
Looks good Jim hopefully those hoses don't get to much in the way of getting the filter off. Cant wait to see how that hood works out.

Looks like enough clearance, and the hoses now enter through the front of the engine, keeping them away from the exhaust, as much as possible don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight, as the hoods been a month and a half process
