How can you leave your Johnson hanging out like that?

Yep there's a can of it being used on the cart project.
Transmission fluid works good too but I'm not using any on the rust. (Top body bolts are upside down to be trying to dab fluid on.)
Mixed 1/2&1/2 with acetone it is supposed to penetrate well. Does well enough alone for me.
I've taken a week with daily soakings and freed up old brake lines before with transmission fluid alone.

I put one spring hanger and it's bolt frozen to bushing liner in the vice.
Heated with torch and kept applying P.B. Blaster while working the liner with vice grips after using a punch to move it a couple millimeters (but not crushing it) for the slightest movement gains as it slowly got looser.
After getting full rotations I used the punch again and then a chisel to move the liner off the bolt.
(The bolt then showed it had been fully wetted by the P.B. Blaster.)

PB plaster does work well and is ALOT cheaper then Kroil. Kroil was introduced to me when I broke a couple of exhaust manifold bolts and then.... had to remove the head !! I use a plasma cutter when nuts and bolts piss me off !!

No.......

Irish coffee !!!!

Irish coffee (Irish: caife Gaelach) is a caffeinated alcoholic drink consisting of Irish whiskey, hot coffee and sugar, which has been stirred and topped with cream (sometimes cream liqueur). The coffee is drunk through the cream.

They want the doors and trim in the rooms.... white. Cherry and burl wainscoting I like a lot better.

 

[Oregon Viking]

That's OK, I'm working inside and the air conditioner is on !!

I use a generator if power is required.
Been using the little one that seems to want to warm up before I get electricity out of it.

Back when in the shop guys kept insisting we neededa new plasma cutter.
I had to convince them that if they drain the water out of the drop more often ; AND quit using the lowest fitting for air supply they will find the plasma cutter works just fine.

I'll be wanting to use one when when I get my next barrel stoves hole locations marked...
