1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Sounds like something I would do. Follow it up with the Eagles to seal the deal.

 

21

 

shit now i feel old at 25... i know its not a big difference.. but it feels like it!

 

Ah that aint old at all!

 

What is a good tailgate worth? I would pay at least that if it was white. I would run it for a while.

 

Well now's your chance, the bars are open and you're 21 so go find yourself a cougar.

 

The cougars in my area are a little crazy. Not sure I could handle it.

 

Come on now, they might have the money for some more Tundra mods.

 

This fella here is from @FirstGenVol, and @jpink's neck of the woods. Give it a listen.

There was a cover band playing all the classics. They didn't get to the eagles while I was there, but if they had hit Easy Feeling that might have been a slam dunk

 

Was on my way home from running some errands and the wife calls to tell me she sees a leak in the garage but doesn't know where its coming from.

I've been home for 15 minutes, the chase is on. @FrenchToasty I need a hose clamp

 

Guess it's a good time to show her where the shut off valve is? Ugh, if I didn't go to college I'd be spending the rest of my life patching drywall like that and butterknife holes cut by sparky.

 

Found in less than 30 minutes. Here's the shit I ripped out, hammer for size reference



Here's the chase, about 8'x1'


And the pin hole I suspect is right on the back of where that 3/4 comes off the 1x3/4x3/4 tee. I don't have one of those so I will have to fix this tomorrow and let a bucket catch it for now. Seems like it has been leaking for a few days, found a small patch of mold right where the drips dropped.

 

Haha, our shut off is a gate valve and I wouldn't touch it. I used the meter a few times, need to cut out and replace my front service. The shut off, tie to sprinklers, pressure regulator, and hose bib. Just need to find the time to do it.

I'm glad she noticed it. The drip went right in my work boots.

 

There you go. I'd just spray some bleach on the small mold patch and let it get some air, then reuse all the dry insulation. Good thing it's just a pinhole and not a supersoaker, that would suck to come home to.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071GNWHKN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_82MGT6PGYMT6VHR0VVGH anyone know how much weight I could pull with a ball hitch on this aftermarket bumper? Would like to tow a uhaul trailer

 

Do you not have a hitch? I have my old hitch you can have for 40 bucks

 

If you do want it im off tomorrow and can probably even install it.

 

Yeah I'm gonna leave this hole open for a while since its in the garage. I'm sure all the corrosion came from this rookie move some landscaper did who knows how long ago.

They pulled the hose bib and used a galvanized tee directly on the copper. I'm sure most landscapers don't know about dielectric couplers and soldering copper is outside their range. Too bad this caused so much corrosion, I'm tempted to replace a lot more pipe than I need to as prevention. I'm going to replace the front service here in the next few weeks.

 

@jImmegart here is a better rear bumper

 

That kinda stuff can be stressful to find huh! Whenever I get one of those call outs my anxiety level raises.
It looks like you found it pretty quickly without having to cut to much.
I’m sure our painters love the on call guys; I made about 8 holes and a strip from floor to ceiling one night looking for a pin hole.
I’m sure I’m going to get a pinhole leak call out now, after talking about it

 

I just saw Starlink go overhead. Pretty trippy.

 

Last winter, my wife woke up to a strange noise coming from the house. (Our house is a quad-level. Bedrooms on top floor.) She thought it was the water softener at first and then, even in her sleepiness, she thought it was too loud.
A galvanized pipe in our basement (the mainline off the well) had developed a pinhole leak and was spraying a jet of water.
When she got down to the basement, there was ~2" of water on the floor.
That was fun followed by expensive.

That's a strange design for a high-clearance bumper. Looks like the vertical section at the very end hangs down. Seems like it'd be likely to catch any rock that got close.

 

Having a great time today directing humans for Covid testing.

 

Thats true, but its not lower than the spare tire. The owner really should do something about that tailpipe though, needs some viagra.

 

I propose we ban people under 45 from posting pictures or their ages....ya'll are making me feel old. I think I'm going to go have a Milwaukee's Best (the Beast!) and throw on some 80's metal (Wasted Years by Iron Maiden seems appropriate) this weekend....fk it...I'm going high dollar and gonna have a Lowenbrau....do they still make that?


"Here's to good friends...so tonight, tonight, let if be Lowenbrau..."

 

Now you are REALLY showing your age. My dad talks about that beer. I've never had it.

 

I'm not too far behind that 45 the mask helps hide the parts of my beard that are white.
