What are you doing right now??

well my future plans of checking out Hi Points, came to a screeching halt.

as i took out the wet clothing from the washer, i noticed black crud in the washer up against the tub...i thought it was grease, but i do not put any sort of greasy or oily rags or clothing in the washer.

my wife said she saw that too, and thinks it is from rust inside the washer...could be, the washer is almost 30 years old, but i gotta actually check the books on that.

so downstairs i gotta go now, scrub it all clean, rinse it out with a cycle of soap, water, Simple Green, Dawn dish soap, and maybe battery acid...i dunno
 
Just changed the oil in it and now I got this pile to split

well that really didn't take too long, i actually finished 40 minutes ago, but had to clean up..the cleaning

found it to be, all the caked up crud from years of fabric softener and detergent, not rust.

i got as deep down and dirty, into as many tiny areas that i could with paper towels, tiny screwdriver, and just scraped as much crud as i could see, then vacuumed up the crap in the tub....

then, added Dawn, bleach and Simple Green, and ran a full cycle of hot water..

now i got our bed sheets getting washed.

the machine was bought back in 1995?

so yeah, 30 years of a build up..

but, how many think about that build up....???
 
Just re-wiped the oil mix on the Garand stock curing in my garage. This coat gets to sit two weeks before final wet sanding with the last coat, which will sit for three. Then she goes back together. Probably one or two more coats of Blue Wonder on the buttplate, too, since it was crappy (service grade, came with mismatched wood and a 2014 cheaply stained stock).
 
Having the first cup and seeing that a thread I posted yesterday was deleted because we can't get along and play nice. Something must have happened after I signed off last night! Will be going to airport later this morning in El Paso. Supposed to be a nice day today.
 
finishing up my 4th cup of coffee, then off to wally's world emporium, for some stuff.

then gotta get one gun or another for a trip to the range for 9 AM.

quite cold again this morning, only about 52 degree's.

maybe this is natures way of saying, we are gonna be getting an early winter..??

i hope not.

that'll mean trips to the store for rock salt, kitty litter (or zip-zorb aka speedi-dri, used for oil spills, works great on ice too), and prepping the snow blowers.
