[AT] Air hose stupid attack...

[Gene Dotson]

    Sounds normal for a 63 year old like us. I was holding the
air chuck in my hand and hunting for it and wondering who took
it out of the storage rack.
    Been really confusing here for the last 2 weeks. I hosted
our family 4 day reunion last week and had to move everything
out of the barn and shop to accommodate everyone. Now the
process of finding everything and getting it back to where it
can be used. The upside is that I now have a clean and organized
barn and shop. A lot of hard work preparing for it, but I will
gladly do it again my next turn.

: I had to put a new matched set of 3 Vee belts on son Scott's
New Idea "Cut/conditioner"
: (large flail cutter / windrower) today. A previous owner had
put the wrong sized belts on
: it. The pully Vee's are 5/8" wide but they had put 1/2" wide
belts on it and they were
: running in the bottom of the grooves instead of gripping the
sides. It had been slipping
: at times even though they were quite tight under spring
tension. Yesterday one let go and
: another was about to go so I sent Diana off to find me 3 new
ones. Several places could
: order them but it was going to take too long. Local NAPA to
the rescue. They could have
: them by 7:00 AM this morning and only $42.55 for all three. As
I started getting stuff
: together to change them I got my little butterfly impact
wrench out so I could use it on
: the mile long tension spring bolt. I was not parked real close
to the shop (the MTA and
: the baler were sitting where I usually work) so I pulled
almost all of the air hose off
: of the hanger and tossed it out the door. I then started
looking for the snap coupler end
: and didn't see it in the pile of hose. I started kicking the
pile of hose around looking
: for the end but it was nowhere on the ground. After mumbling
some things that shouldn't
: be said in mixed company I finally found it securely attached
to the air tool in my
: hand... DUH!!!  I wonder if they still have another empty room
out at the home...   :-)
: Sure made a big difference in the way the unit handled the
tough spots of extra tall
: hay.
