Today in the Shop

Post by ERLover »

Hot and Humid today, Dew points in the 70s. Up early 730 ish, coffee, here, grocery store. I have an ER Speed Changer for the one in Rehap that I got new bushings from Skip, but no way to press them in. Well mom lives just West of a small community, Butler,WI, about 4 square miles, homes from the 30s to 60.
BUT many small machine shops also. So but the 2 Er SC bushings in he car and the center hub they get pressed into. Found one, Accurate Machining, stopped. all on CNC machines, said can you help me, 5 minutes later bushings pressed in, offered him a $10, he said any time, NICE.
So with that done, redid the SC, all apart, cleaned up, lubed, and reassembled.
With breaks from the heat and humidity, into the 74* house.
Life is good with Bro here for Mom the last 3 weeks, I gave him a break to night, made dinner, BA Chuck Roast, with onions, carrots and mushrooms in it, new potatoes on the side, I dont like them in the roast juice.
Up to Home for the weekend to set up another ER for my nephew, I got the new pulleys from Skip Tuesday. He is on Vacation now, then my 6" for my dedicated ER DP.
Bro leaves on the 19th then back to being a Jack in the Box for mom and different time frames for getting anything done much. Oh well, she made here famous chocolate chip cookies today!!!!!! :)

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them. :)
