Scott, I have done the same thing....bought a bunch of stuff a couple of times. I need to take inventory as well to see where I am and where I am going.
Sounds like your getting to grips with the jibberly bits, that can take a long time to bring them up to spec too, cleaning and lubing + loads of swearing where that roll pin wont move but you cant smack it with a persuader because of the fragile nature of the casting its in. Fun fun fun :-D.
Dang that's better than finding a 20 dollar bill you hid away. I say that cause I just found one that I stashed in a book. Nice find but yours was better.
love the hat...lol im a retired gasket maker from one of the worlds largest companys in Houston. comes in handy....rubber is the worst now days....its all from china and the guilty is worthless. dries up
That's the biggest problem I'm finding, buying stuff because it is a bargain and end up having to do it again, buy the proper stuff like you used to produce - fit it & forget it, just how it should be, ah well that's progress!
