Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die.

Happy weaseling Wat.

My great grandfather had a Luger, and I wonder whatever became of it.

My father had one. A fucking home care person stole it from him when he was in his last months of life. My sister didn't see the need to report it to the cops and she was in charge of his care. The guy also stole two other guns, and both are easily recognizable to me. I check the used market occasionally for them.

You didn't have the numbers?

P-08's are pretty, expensive, and temperamental. They're all virtually hand fitted.

Home/Scrotel13. Got some moar Numbah Wun Fuckee for supper grazing delight. It's good and it's cheap, and I'm not hungry an hour later.


Work was a fucking joke. No plumber arrived. TURRuh agreed that the pipe were leaking and we even tracked them down and found out where. One of them we could fix, but the other required The Loving Touch of a plumber with more skills than we agreed we have. Well, he hasn't got the skills, and I'm not going to take a chance on that piece fucking up and being responsible for it in any way. Fuck that shit. So I may be reporting to the next job come Monday and waiting for a phonecall to come back to this one to check it out. To be determined . . . .


So since I got off a bit early, I went to the HfD store again and perused the parts books to rebuild the cam "chest" on my engine. Seems that it can go to shit if run hard and put away wet. And it would benefit from some improved breathing anyway. I found a cam grind that I liked and noted that they didn't put the lobe separation angle in the specs, but it could be calculated from the opening and closing figures. But the whole front plate assembly is little improved from stock. Then we discussed the moment arm theory and why that mattered, and I know I lost one of them, and the other seemed to glaze over a bit himself, so it's good that Google is my friend.


They did tell me about their mechanic who keeps bending his Twin Cam's crank, but some people can destroy an anvil with a mallet, so there's that. It's kinda like the wood butcher who brags about the time he cut himself badly with the circular saw . . . .


The opening day of zucchini season:

Ping ponging jobs is kinda, well, a PITA. Long weekend this weekend?

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It is, but this one is finally short-court, so there's that.


I'm here tomorrow and blowing town in the afternoon.


Assuming I go down the road for Monday, I'll blow the hometown Sunday and go to see my friends over there come Sunday night.


Off to dive back into this epic tome on epic iron.

This is an FYI or a PSA post for those that tinker with firearms. I tried out a new coating and it is GREAT for firearms. It's a ceramic/silica/epoxy paint designed to coat exhaust headers. I figured if it stands up to that sort of abuse in that sort of environment, give it a shot. It's VHT Flame Proof. I bought it at O'Reilly's but I suspect you can get it at any decent auto parts store.

Obviously I used the flat black. When it lays down and is cured as directed it looks just like anodizing or Cerakote.

I think I related my problems when I used Duro-Kote. This stuff creates no interference issues. (I imagine if you kept building it up you'd get to that point though.)

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Friday!!!


To plumb or not to plumb, will they fuckers show up today, that is the question. I reckon we'll see.


Today is pack up and go home day. One tries to avoid getting too spread out in the motel room, but some is going to happen regardless.


Josh needs to be burnt, too . . . .

What's it called? Any good-or-better heavy duty high heat black coating has about half a gazillion uses.

Couldn’t type the words “rattle can”.

Those correctly are "shangles."


They go on "roughs."


It's good to be fluent in redneckese.

[notfeasance]

What's it called?

VHT.

I’m familiar with their rattle can stuff. Brake calipers, headers. Lipstick on a pig-grade.

BBQ paint with a different label, $2.50 more.

I have a friend with a 47 chief fully restored and original save electric start; whole bike, tires included, rattle can flat black. he carries a can in a saddlebag for frequent roadside touch ups.

 

[bellisarius]

VHT was so much easier.

I'd love to see how your friend oven cured his whole scooter. There's a U-Tube video right there.

 

[notfeasance]

I don’t doubt your application skills. I do question your material choice.

And i do find the notion of custom painted guns very very funny, but I will keep that to myself.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Just about packed and getting saddled up.


I got more shit to do this weekend than a little bit. It'll be challenging to shove some Quality Me-Time in there, but I'll get that done, too.


And I gotta go hunt a couple of people down, too.


I'll let you know later what the weasel count is . . . .

If you had been following the saga of what's going on you'd know, but you didn't so you don't. Suffice it to say that coating raw metal after a machining process is generally accepted good practice and we'll leave it at that.

VHT is consumer grade hardware store material.

Sorry for the interruption, cheers.

 

[Endrura]

At the range I go to, one of the men custom paints pin-up girls on the stock of his rifles.
I asked him about it once and he said each one has its own personality and the artwork
just lets it show. His artwork is really very good and they do add a bit of style to what
are just ordinary hunting tools.

Once he gets comfortable with flat black, he’ll try some matching boots and hat.

He’ll only use a little color to accessorize as an experiment after that.

Before long, hunting heels.

Now that's different. I've seen some carved stocks and grips but not pin-ups. I'm just using the stuff to coat the interior of the receiver where I've removed some material. Not even visible unless you disassemble the firearm. Protection against corrosion, not decoration.

 

[notfeasance]

See, no decoration.

And I said I’d keep it to myself. Sorry.
