Bov it's 99.5% USP...Thing is though it's about a buck an ounce...Convenient but not exactly the same deal you get buying a gallon of PG...

908 I run all my mixes at 70/30...

Gotta run by the boat store and give an estimate tomorrow...This place is the largest jon{aluminum} boat dealer in the Southeast...I fixed a trailer and a boat for them last fall...There will never be a ton of work from them but at least I get what they frigg up...I kept hearing about a skilled aluminum welder they had used previously...I claim rookie status myself...When I saw his welds I laughed...I got that new rig to further my skills but there ain't been no time for practice...

I used to have all them tools when I had my bodyshop. Couldn't work on many cars without Mig, arc, and acetylene\oxygen. I miss it but the doc told me way back then that I had to get out of it because of lung issues.

Good morning

 

[Bovinia]

Morning folks

Thanks Tracy!

Yes Dee, it is a lot more expensive buying VG that way, but VG in general is more expensive than PG. I was looking to buy a gallon online and they want more for the shipping than the VG!

Oppressive humid today, wish it would rain and get it over with.

Good morning,Bov and Moon

It's yucky humid here too,Bov. Hope the rain doesn't hold off too long.

There is always this offer if it helps- they have the gal of glycerin by itself for 18.12 but shipping to me is 18.40. Walmart has glycerin used to keep it in the foot and skin care aisle for like 3.50 for 6oz if not still there ask at the pharmacy counter but charge more like 6 or 7 bucks last time I did that.

Thanks Moon, yep the shipping is what hurts. I'll probably grab it from our local Rite Aid or look at wal mart for the smaller size.

I need too order some VG...Old last minute out of juice Dee...that's getting ready too change..

What ya'll talking about??? HOT???? Just be glad you ain't here...Still way better than winter....

Spike trotted his happy little azz right over a 4 foot Black Snake earlier...He never even saw it...I watched it slide on off...They eat Copperheads and rodents so they good!!!

Boat store job didn't pan out...2 new Yamaha outboards damaged in shipping...Told them it was best to let Yamaha eat it...

Just re-built both my KayFuns...Made myself a coil building tool with a 1X2 piece of wood, a screw and the old 5/64ths bit...It worked and the coils are hammering down !!!

Seems Mom and Sis' family had some disagreements at the beach...Mom is 84 and they are most of 50...I choose my battles and I also realize 84 is getting up there...Everything ain't gonna be peaches and creme...As usual Mom likes too work and they DON"T!!! They are .... hurt...Like I said I choose my battles and I fully well know sometimes my opinion don't mean sheet too other people...I'll just roll on...

 

[Bovinia]

Thank you for the offer Fran, I'm not completely out of VG yet. I don't mind getting it in a smaller amount at Rite Aid...my last gallon lasted almost 2 years

And thanks for the ebay link J5!

We had a nice fat black racer that hung out near our place in Fl. Dee. They eat the rattlers down there so he was welcome to stay.

Couple three years back I saw a Black Snake constricting a Copperhead...I've been a fan since...

Around 1977 my Grandparents were still around and the farm was rolling strong..A friend came by one day to pick me up and watched as I fed the cows from the corn crib in the barn..There was a huge black snake laying on a barn rafter...I'd seen him many times.. My Granny had hung some old pocket books near where the snake was...My friend devised the plan....capture the snake....put it into a pocket book...leave the pocket book where it would be picked up by someone knowing they were stealing it...So off too the local grocery we go snake in tow...We left it on a bench by the curb and waited...about thirty seconds later a car stops and we see an arm come out and the pocket book is GONE!!!...Less than the time it took for the theft we see the pocketbook flying out of the car and four guys bailing out...Priceless is what that was...I peed my pants...They finally got the snake out of the car and I watched as it crawled away...They left in a mad rush...I then recaptured the snake and put it back into the pocket book....My friend wanted to do it again but I made him take me back...That snake had been thru enough and those four guys were .........No use pushing your luck...I put the snake safely back into the barn but never did see it again...

Got my special trans fluid ordered....added a ...... Headers T shirt as I've already worn out two....Yeah I roll w/...... on my Bronco and Harley...Jegs has free shipping...FedX but free...

Love the snake story,Dee!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Clmarti78]

How you all been, I really need to check in more often but I've been stuck at walmart trying to decide what color of yarn to buy for coils.... Never made a choice. Hope you guys are doing well I didn't have to much time to read the last couple weeks on here although I want to eventually. But thought I would throw a couple words out give you guys something to waste a few minutes on. I will try to check in more frequently I feel out of the loop already.

 

[FranC]

Hiya Clmart You don't want colored yarn for coils.

 

[Bovinia]

Hahaha Dee!!

Hey Marti! I'd go with a nice blue or purple yarn No...really, what Fran said!

 

[FranC]

 

[El Dee]

My yarn and coils were black...black and crusty...very crusty....they're clean now!!

240mls of the Dragon's Blood and Snake Oil....120 mls of an old favorite Strawberry Cheesecake...Ran out of Bavarian Creme on the Oil and had planned on adding a shot too the Cake...Thought about Cotton candy as a sub but decided too just add extra Cheesecake,,,then flubbed up and added double the Cotton Candy needed...only 2mls extra in 120mls but dang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My snake buddy....he went on to become a preacher...Presbetarian as my church is...not that I go but my church at any rate...his dad and I are great friends and old Dad told me his Son was looking a church nearby...So yeah...I tried too hook him up...Then I found out there are two branches of the Presbetarians...We had a female preacher....all men before but we were replacing a woman...His branch sees a female preacher as a holy sin....What got me was how quick he was to condemn people I've known all my life...good salt of the earth people...I shoulda beat his azz...I still might...
