I dropped a 3/16" bearing ball on the shop floor...and it disappeared like socks in a dryer.
That maintenance project is on hold now, until the new bearings arrive.

Gun laws do not stop criminals. BULLETS do.
Watching the inauguration would be whatever.....but watching the media masturbate over all this and zoom in on W french kissing the Obamas and Clintons would make me throw up in my mouth......like finding out your dad is gay.
Ron Paul's following and revolution had legs for a little while but is long dead now. Trumptsers and deplorables and the following will last a lot longer and have an impact ..?we will see
Finished up reading Tool of War. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...99-tool-of-war
Got it at Dollar Tree. Many of their stores have a tiny book selection, but I've been able to find some decent ones. They're a hell of a lot more enjoyable than most television shows on now and for $1, even if I don't like it, it's not a big loss. I did enjoy this one.

Slim pickings at the Harley Davidson dealership in Yuma Arizona.
Talking to the guy at the parts desk.... apparently they are selling like hot cakes.
So I cut off the straight portion of bad crank, drilled to accept the 3/8 bolt that taper crank is tapped for and then bored the taper
Run out is 0.002, next to get a 5” 3/8 fine bolt to hold on the taper and then decide if I cut a secondary key or weld
run out is so good, welding concerns me but hand cutting that keyway on the crank is going to be a pain. It would also be a custom key, straight transitioning to 1/2 moon on high side of taper
Shaft may see some shock loads
Will see
Waiting for the snow thats arriving tonight, wife said i need to goto the grocery store cuz god forbid we don't have milk/bread for a day or whatever....
Lets see, i spent too much $200 on a rear shock that i dont even need but i couldn't pass up a what looks like a low hour shock.
Poured some tailight rubbers but i cant for the life of me figure out how honda got a large rectangle rubber through a half the size square hole...i'll probably try boiling (heat) them maybe so they soften up (they may have been a waist of time).
Also made a new headlight pin mold (much better than my last) planned on doing a run of 100 but the mold failed at or around 50. Actually happy with the result of those though, just wish i could of done more but the 4 part mold was not easy.
Still pissed about the whole "trump" fiasco then i read golightly's (sp) post about govt taking family land in florida..... unbelievable .....jerks (putting that nicely)
Oh theres a recent thread on chinese carbs, these are my 3 china junk ones (shelved) figure i'll melt them down this spring.
Got my new phone- my old phone had 16GB my new has 128GB (should be better)
Kinda really making this post to test loading pics and such.
