Blueberry - of course the Chief is watching Elk shows and eating hot dogs - didn’t Nero fiddle while Rome burned…
Look - Dallas drivers ballet on ice! This way, everyone behind these guys do not have to worry about wrecking their cars - nor do they need to worry about getting home anytime soon!
I have a former student teaching in Mission TX and he says the funniest thing in the world is watching TX drivers on the snow & ice, sadly that’s also true here in snow country.
Legs [used 2X4’s as cheaper and I did not want to rip. I really have some challenges. 1940’s house, plaster and now 1" thick baseboards and 3/4 inch wide shoe molding at the carpet. Funny, the subflooring particle board I’m using as sub-top is 49 inches wide. 8 foot long but crazy width. Well, will work OK as legs are inside 1X6 [free lumber] and 1X4’s [moves them in 3/4"] and the extra 1" over hang with make the legs hit the shoe molding just right. Here is what I’m using to level the top.
Cheif don’t let them get to you,…I am still in the preperation stage of the basement I have got the musty smell out and removed the 50/60’s loose tile from the floor and that is where the smell had been comeing from the loose tiles where hidding moisture and probably did not stick that well because some one had painted the floor at some point in time. I have to finnish scrubbing the floor to get the last of the tile adhesive up. then I will paint the walls and get carpet then I will finaly start the benchwork. The last few winters here in OHIO have been mostly cold and dry. When I was a kid in the 70’s we used to have blizzards that would shut the whole town down.
Nice work Roy, glad to hear Texan’s is getting a chance to work on their driving skills. Up here it is cold and the roads get stable making the driving easy. Seldom have the pile ups like you just experienced! Yikes! As the Chief keeps building the Texan’s keep sliding.
About 25 years ago Dallas had a big snow storm and shut the city down, maybe 6" - 8" of snow. Anyway the front page of the Dallas paper had a picture of a friend of mine x-country skiing to work down the middle of deserted downtown Dallas streets. She worked at one the local hospitals as a nurse. At the time I lived in Grand Marais MN and we got a real kick out of seeing her skiing in the southland.
Keep your feet off the brake, slow down and triple your stopping distance and get that saw and square out of Chiefs hands.
