Cut this poplar Saturday. During a windstorm. It fell right where I hoped it would.

That old Case 730 was in it's element.

And the "grab hammer" worked to perfection.

It was a good day.

I hope you young'ens can get around this good when you are 65.

9.75 when it began to crack open.

For me, it doesn't hit the 9s until it's in falling on the house distance. When it is, I could squeeze a diamond out of a chunk of coal.

Absolutely love this. Wish our bathroom was big enough to do it. Only thing I see missing that I would want is a small bench. 100 gal water heater would be a must also

I like that bookcase!

This is what I tried to tear down around 7 years ago. Got my shin, knee, side, and arm. Yep, the lick caused my belly to swell up a little.

"The Lick?" I've not heard of that label. Lager? IPA?

Edited your post for humor.

redid this starter earlier, then painted. I kinda like this side gig. Like altenators more than starters though.

My hip has looked like that the last 5-7 years. Need a hip replacement. Maybe not quite that bad but relatively close

What did you charge

Idk on most stuff, but I do know rebuilding them is at least half of what a new one costs. Depends on what it's for, and if they just bring in the part, or we take it off. I did 2 starters today, and just happened to be up front when they came in. One was $45, the other $135. Cheaper one only needed a solenoid, other needed that, armature, and brushes. The guy who paid 135 asked what a new one costs, they looked it up, and it was $295. I did a couple of altenators, and they weren't much, except the one I had to take off and put back on the truck. He paid a little more for labor.
