  1. Me and my buds would ride our Schwinn's from Welsh and the Blvd with our Zebco's to play with the trout. Many a memory from that time!
  2. My now deceased father-in-law had a number of items sent back or brought back from the war. They saw these items as a small reward for kicking the Nazi's collective ass.
  3. She could eat my soul and I wouldn't care! I'd die very happy.
  4. Back it off a 1/4 or 1/2 a turn. Then snug it down. It may take a little pressure to break it free.
  5. The nut just behind the valve handle. Tighten it a smidge. The packing washer will re-compress.
  6. Honestly, I would tear it all out. Save the pavers, lose the wood. Build a paver pad at the bottom of the stairs then slope and grade the path down to the bottom. Pavers on a pitched slope. No more steps, no more tripping. You may need a few more blocks though.
  7. If it were me, I'd put the cement board up on the knee wall and cut it to the height of the fence. Put 4 or 6 screws through the cement board and fasten to the top (2-3 screws) bottom (2-3 screws) rail should hold it in place, even with the fence holding brackets (just don't tighten the screws down, just pull the panel snug). This should provide sufficient air flow to keep the panels cool as well. For the left side "partition" I would make some kind of hinged arrangement for the loose cement board and only open when grill is in use. You could even find some sort of locking hinge to keep it open when in use. Add a coat of white paint and it would blend in nicely.
  8. Personally, I would use the bit you posted on a router table with a fence and a featherboard above the material. Keep making easy passes until the shape is formed along the length of the material. You could then rip the piece to the 2" width on a table saw. Any 1/2" material would work so long as it's wider than 2".
  9. Found my dad's old 60's tube gear when cleaning out my parents house. Brought back many memories of my twisted youth in the 70's. Brought it home and re-capped the receiver and the speakers. God I love the sound of that system.
  10. Skype for Business call. Internet based phone call.
  11. Bought an Astro new in 2002 and drove it until 2018. Loved that van, used it on the beaches mainly from IBSP to OCNJ but drove it all over from PTown to Islamorada. I lifted mine 2" and put slightly larger tires on it to drive the softer beaches. Ran the hell out of it until all the bushings and bearings went from the sand corrosion. I'd still have it today if it wasn't for the expense to replace all the suspension parts. Air down to 15 psi and you should be fine. Mine also had a G80 locking rear diff. Check the RPO code on the Safari and see if it has that. I think it did make a difference on the sand. 3 wheel drive (front, rear, rear) versus 2 wheel drive (front, rear). Good luck.
