Things you have made

Both My C-max Energi and Chevy Volt have EVSE plugs... which for the last two years have been plugged in to the shed/garage to charge them up. The shed won’t fit a car, but it does have power. My solution to where to keep the business end has been simply to hang it on the door handle.

That is until today:

I bought the plastic doohickey to Holster the plug, and had a nostalgic fit when painting it.

I like to always have a few active projects going. One of my most recent projects was a custom table for my Primo Kamado. In truth my wife said I needed to finish it and get it out of the garage before I could start my tiny trailer build :)

It's 100% cedar on industrial casters. The main structure is 4x4 stock with hidden fasteners. The large side tables provide all of the room I need for cooking outside. It's roughly 6' long and 2' deep.

Unfortunately downsizing the photos robs them of much detail.

Found this in Raton, a good deal for $25 but it needs a "little bit" of work to make it run. I've stretched the frame 8" for stability, added a bigger motor with a few mods (milled the head .030" to raise the compression & ported it a little, 22mm Mikuni, header, heavier valve springs), installed a hydraulic braking system, new tires & a "few" more things. I still need a few more parts to get it running, but it's getting closer to being finished, perhaps next week I'll be able to run it for the first time & report back on top speed. I'm hoping for about 60 mph with this motor, but we'll have to see how it goes. It's a milder cam than the red bike's Isky Black Mamba, so it might not run up on top end quite as well.

Nice looking Catio :thumbsup:
We too made a Catio last week for the 10 year old inside cat my wife adopted a couple months ago.
It's attached to an old wiener dog house I made years ago.
The side door is for cleaning and if we want to close it off at sometime.
It has easy access through two flap doors from the laundry room and old dog house.
We used 2" x 3" sturdy wire so she could enjoy the outdoors.
The dog house now holds a cat box for her.
Last night something outside spooked her so much :frightened:she came ripping into the house, up and down the stairs, around and around until she calmed down. :LOL:
:D Danny

Should have been my first post, to much detail;
I was paid and turned free with a idea explaining a problem Pacific Power had.
Given a tour with Both companies engineers, and a few extras dressed pretty
I was given a cocktail napkin drawing to work with. Then a few cards when our engineer found another job.
Pacific Power called a few years later,
I declined a multi million dollar deal because the company I worked for was too busy to build
& I didn't want to move :thinking:
Someone else was buying the rest of the parts, equipment, personal, transportation, property & Labor, while I supervised.

Camshaft?
 
No , It does look like one in a Italian machine that kicks out 40,000 capsules per Hour in the Pharmaceutical Industry though, The guys that tune them are a hoot and are pampered like you can't imagine. Some part replacement tuning requires shipping the machine.
I learned a lot about these machines; Their dailey rate was phenomenal, And a klunk in one got you fired :shock:
Ordering parts for these were easy if the part # matched everything / My boss tried to order a part for some place? That only had one, we had 8 I wouldn't.
They Weren't making payments, Wrong # s Got caught :applause: Jackass
We Had Machines the Very large Breweries have and will not touch (Liabilities) only run them; There are few techs, that were Kida a hoot, but very similar story.
Except ordering parts from Germany :roll:

One of my Employes was a R/N & I worked with a DR.
I signed papers and can't say what they feed me. :R

Next guess only for what this is / Does before, I show another picture?
 
I have seen something similar to this on someones trailer table for easy set up :thumbsup:
These are a few drop in tabs I use and made. not going to ex plane the order, don't no yet.

I just finished six more raised bed gardens. I’ve built 18 of these (14 this size) for us, some friends, and our church since May. Building stuff is a good way to keep sane during the pandemic.
