better loaf pans too..

Ive noticed baking in glass or heavy wall aluminum is a bit more forgiving..

but year,, take a lipitor and grease that up
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

im a big fan of Nortic ware well worth the cost for USA aluminum.  i have slowly changed over all of my cooking sheets/tins/pans to whatever they offer. 



butter then flour.

Had to fill oil furnace today. Lots of dead space in its tank, probably 50 gallons or so.

Third barrel I went to pump in was thicker. Started overdrawing my 15a voltage converter. Was using my 12v pump on 20v dewar batteries.

I need to get proper fittings and hoses for the 120v pumps I have so priming them can not suck. Fought with the pump on my red fuel station more since I was having some pump time. More frustration and poor results. Long story.

man i would have loved to think to grab one of the air powered trash pumps we used at work to suck gas / oil / goo out of anything.  those things would pass a 1/2" pipe plug with out care.  self priming diaphragm pumps of some kind.

That would suck it all. I think smaller versions of those are amazonable for 400-500?

Hoping a couple more fittings and I can make the centrifugal pumps I have work.

I think I still have a 4” trash pump from the small engine shop that we closed like 10 years ago

Put a spigot on the 55 gallon barrel & put it on its side & lift it up with fork lift and drain into the tank, open the small bung for venting is what we did at my old work.

Alternative is to use the good ol’ hand crank pump, remove the handle & adapt the drill to it.

I’ll take it if it’s up for grab! To fix it up & use for the track in Attica

Curb picked this Thursday night omw home through bloomfield.



5.5hp Tecumseh engine has a bunch of loose head bolts and one missing. Appears they secure accessories (fuel tank) with head bolts (!)

Turns over smooth, has oil-like oil and fresh gas. Haven’t pulled spark plug yet.

Claims electric start but I see no battery or 110v plug so that may have been deleted.

Might be a motor swap candidate if this is junk. Rest of it seems in working order, though surface rises from outside storage.

Marketplace says only worth $200 at most in claimed working order.

But what a cesspool of “ships via usps for $8” that has turned into. I’m quite certain that’s not true of any snowblower.
