I dig hammocks.
Have fun LJ!
It wears you thin quick Jay!! I know!
About the time you get settled in and into a movie, or playing with the kid, or working on a project, the phone rings. "Well, gotta go!"
Went to get gas for my cutting torch today ,they certainly are proud of that stuff ,costa plenty anymore .
My problem here is I am having to wait out my time in my on-call area. I live an hour and a half away from my main on-call area, and an hour from the closet call site in my main on-call area(5 minutes in my secondary area ).
From A to B is about 2 and a half hours.
I guess the outfit I buy it from ,one time called Airco is owned by some German concern now BOC .When they bought out Airco they doubled the price of acetelene . I dispise propane and Mapp gas .It is cheaper though but doesn't burn as clean nor as hot . I might think about changing over if I used more of it . My two mid sized gas and o2 cost me almost 70 bucks .It used to be 8 for the oxegon and 12 for the acetelene .Al, I heard that there is no acetylene made in the US, and the last plant in Canada is going to, ore already has, shut down. I'll switch to propane at some point. Not as hot, but way cheaper, and less volatile.
I missed this the first time through .To tell the truth most of mine vents off from having my head in butt and not turning off the tank valves . Evidently I'm not the only one .I freakin left it on and had to fill it again about a week later. Made a couple of cuts with it.
Sounds like an uncomfortable evening, Andy. Hopefully you looked Mahvelous in your new suit.
