I went shopping to purchase anchors today. The guide rails (second picture) use 11 anchors per rail and the Water Wizard rails (last picture) use 22 anchors per rail. So I need 66 x1/2 x 5 1/2″ or 4 1/2″. I will know after the install guy tells me which one he wants to use. I also purchased some 1/2 all thread to install the boom and misc. anchors to anchor misc. things.
I cut out the asphalt for the drain in front of the bay today. It was fun!
I got some hay at the car wash today. Luckly only one had rope around it to help dump it.
I cut the lawn for the last time, I hope, this year!
The drain was still slow so I cleaned it out with my hose today. It was actually a pretty easy clog to clear, which is interesting.
I got to use my Handi-Clam to dig out my pit which is always fun. Looks like the pipe has some mud in it but I think it will work out by tomorrow.
I forgot to install the fourth bay to the weep system so I did that today. For some reason the equipment only had 3 connected to the weep system.
I went to the Birmingham International Car Show and is was okay!
Nissan did not have their 2009 370 Z but they did have a GT-R with the steering wheel on the wrong side.
Ford had the Intruder or something like that (left picture) and the ugliest car in the whole show with the Air Stream (middle picture). The last picture is the most expensive cheap plastic looking piece on a car, which is on the Corvette ZR1 around $110,000.
I think that my favorate car was the 1968 Shelby Cobra which cost $5263.03 new.
Of course the stupid Jags were locked like no one has ever seen a Ford Taurus before? I did like the super gay blue beacon that flashed in the car though (left picture). The next car reminded me of something from the 70s in the interior, very weird and had lots of shiny chrome.
I connected my Dixmor DX-1000 Weep Mizer to my new Jim Coleman equipment. The second picture shows how the hose is connected to the pump. The next picture shows the solenoid connected to city water pressure. Last picture is the solenoid power and constant power supply.
I had a vending problem in my Dilling & Harris Max-Vend II Vendor. The new ArmorAll Original package got stuck in the spindle. I removed about 2/3 of the packages and I hope maybe that will help it? I am using the same spindle as I previously used on the older 1/2 size packages.
