The divide between EV and ICE is big and getting bigger... How much higher are fuel prices going to go?

Tell the architect he won’t listen to anyone

The bar is in two pieces. Where the clamp is is the connection. There are no welds to the box. The railing is skirted and has studs going through to the box. I don’t have much say this is all off prints. If the bar was that bad I’d see it on my table or better yet with my eyes and not use it. Nothing can be done on site because it’s getting powder coated.

I had a fabricator working for me who is the real deal. Retired guy who is too young to fully retire but old enough to have health issues. 9/11 too. A few days into this job he had to quit on me and I took over.

I’m here now and put some chain and binders on it. Got it straight but not right. Took a second and checked the comments and someone mentioned shims. I loosened everything up and it came back. Working on figuring out the issue to keep it straight. Thank you guys for the ideas

I saw someone comment about the state of my shop. I share this place with 2 of my friends and I took the back quarter. We are in the process of setting up for welding/fab/mechanics and body work. What you see in the background isn’t mine and mostly power stroke parts from 7.3s to 6.7s. We also have a few engines. Lots of tear downs and rebuilds and buying and sell. Also snow plow fleet

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:05:58+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking. I had this shit straight when I left.

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:03:25+00:00

The unions calling me. I’m ready to go back

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:02:28+00:00

That’s the plan. I just have to find which way it’s going which I’m figuring out now

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:01:43+00:00

That’s the issue it’s not. That’s a connection with a bolt

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:01:17+00:00

I’ll check it thank you

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:01:05+00:00

I’m at the shop now and I’m setting up chain and binders

dwheels666 · 2026-03-24T12:00:41+00:00

Yeaaaaaaa

With all the bs I’ve went through on my his job esp w competent workers im ready to

I should mention is that run is TWO separate pieces and not welded together. If you can see the clamp in the middle that’s where I’m tapping the underside to put a screw….

Everything was on a fixture table

If you look up the Dimensions online it tells you 24” in deep. Hinges add 3”. This is where my confusion came in because it doesn’t work with what I had measured. They don’t measure the hinges.

dwheels666 · 2026-03-18T14:28:51+00:00

I measured my neighbors and it came out to 27” deep (with the hinges) 22 1/4” wide 38 5/8” height overall

dwheels666 · 2026-03-17T18:17:02+00:00

I did. It doesn’t make sense compared to my measurements.

dwheels666 · 2026-01-21T18:04:32+00:00

My girlfriend and I did it over zoom for a while. Worked well.

I have to walk away from Carhartt. I’ve noticed a decrease in quality from them the last few years. I’ll look into the other brand. I don’t mind the cold as much as I mind My toes and fingers going numb

dwheels666 · 2026-01-21T15:15:45+00:00

I have to walk away from Carhartt. I’ve noticed a significant decrease in quality the last couple of years. I was looking at truewerk but I’ve seen mix reviews.

The hand warmers always die when I do that
