I worked at a place where we would unload fire extinguishers into each others company trucks at night.

I watched my buddy find a gas line leak on his 1,000 gallon propane tank with a bic lighter.  But I am not going to jump on the net and tell people they can find propane leaks with lighters... 

you just did. 😁

@legume not much rain. 

My wife runs on a schedule, and that was scheduled.

Evans or Pikes?

Main fridge bottom freezer warm temp alert went off, ugh.
Took it apart for the first time and this:


Hugh hassle to empty and wait 24 hr so I speed thawed with hot water sponge bath. While I had the door and shelves removed it was easy to remove the pita in-freezer ice maker that was never hooked up. Reassembled and plugged in, temp dropping nicely now.  Keeping fingers crossed but won’t know for sure until after couple of defrost cycles.

i watched 2 of my guys divert a fire running out of a 3 inch natural gas line full open with a bunch of welders gloves and a metal trash can cover while on ladders while i looked for the main shutoff......and of course there was no shutoff handle in the line.   some nitwit years earlier put in cast iron fittings on a gas line that broke clean off when we cut out the steam line.  we were replacing the boiler with a water system in a big church from steam.  punched a long pilot drill thru a wall and thru 6 or 8 bibles on that job. asbestos everywhere, extension chords nailed thru the chord into the walls, childcare downstairs, a complete night mare. i blame those bibles for my luck over the years since   dont use cast iron on a gas line.  that church eventually burnt down.....an act of god

That’s crazy @fishlessman I bought some folding tables from a Catholic Church and they said they were trying to raise a million dollars to convert heating system.

Kidding aside,
C for climate, F for food, K for car, F for lumber, it's a mixed bag.

Name tat grinder … my son bought this at an antique store, keep telling him it’s not for meat, but no idea what it’s for 

fishlessman

coffee grinder?

Bellavista52

@lkapigian - could it be for grinding barley for making beer or grinding coffee beans for making coffee?

fishlessman

kinda similar to this design which looks like its maybe good for peanut grinding
