Off the beaten path of beaten up roads (pun intended)...I know I've been a bit of a ghost on here for the last 3 years. I have missed you all(except for that one guy that kept putting my "desk for sale" post in the trash. Lol) Anyway, I went to work at the local casino here in Duncan and it's been a very interesting job. I haven't worked with the public since early 2002 and I now know why I went back into manufacturing so long ago. I'm going to try to use my ABA within the Chickasaw nation, so I'm not certain where this road will lead. I've missed alot during my absence from the forum, but I've come up with a few tidbits of helpful info to share. Here are 2....Do you dip snuff? Those plastic cans are perfect for removing the thin sheet of icy frost from auto glass. Place the open side down on the glass and while holding it, press down firm enough to shave the ice away. Don't use the lid, especially if it is metal. #2. If you have plastic chip cans, they make a great form for those pockets in the utility bag that goes into a 5 gallon bucket. The bottom of the can helps keep screwdrivers from pushing through the pockets and keeps longer tools from flopping around. Coincidentally, these plastic cans also serve for scraping frost from windows and scaring the crap out of the cat when it saunters close by to your feet. Make the lid pop off by pressing on it with your foot. Use caution when doing this. Cats can be very vindictive, so your pillows could become a liter box out of spite for your having some fun at your feline's expense. I hope these tidbits help out in a pinch. I have more, but not enough time to post them now. Glad to be back y'all! :)

Well got a parts kit in and rebuilt my first SCUBA regulator. Thing is too dirt simple to not rebuild yourself too. 2 O-rings and a seat after it is cleaned up good, ScubaPro 109. Need to rebuild a G250 next which isn't much more, 8 O-rings and a seat plus a C-clip after cleaning. Will need to make some minor adjustments to the orifice on them but otherwise no big deal. The first stages will be a pain as one has 14 O-rings and the other has at least that many.

Also have a 19.5X36 flag to the point where I need to stain it so should have that done tomorrow. Started work on a smaller one as requested 13X24.

And for anyone who games I have a steal for you. 20 bucks off Company of Heroes 2 until the 17th https://store.steampowered.com/app/231430/Company_of_Heroes_2/ so if you have steam just grab it and sit on it for later.

Think'n that today may be a good day to go to the range...…….. Well, any day is a good day for that. Maybe I meant that it may be possible to go to the range today.
