Is it Friday yet?

**********Warning you might not want to see this************

OK now I'm a big fan of re purposing things but some people just take things to far.

This is what I'm talking about:

Ah, yes. Those boards under that nifty ice chest/grill all-in-one have definitely outlived their usefulness. The all-in-one deserves a place on a much nicer parking spot.

I certainly hope he left the flapper valve in,
or, as the heat melts the ice, the water will
put out the fire.

If it gets TOO hot, the heat will melt the flapper.
Same result.

10 ER, stripped down.
Basic 10ER, Parts machine. Will be a semi-dedicated drill-press machine.
10 ER, a "survivor" of the trailer fire, in the back yard, needing restoration. Has a Mk5 headrest. Finally, stripped down.
Numerous parts, for Model 10 stuff. Except for lower saw guard, A and B adapters, I've got it.

Looking for one more, or some 9 inch extension table raisers.

Somebody explain to me the ground fire and the suspended ice cubes.

It appears the normal inlet hole is being used as a drain.

I wonder how many uses it takes to break the porcelain.
