Yesterdays projects(after work):
-Repaired my favorite Matco ratchet(would be nice if there was a Matco guy around here but I'm told the last guy intentionally burnt his truck
). As a side note, the reverse lever out of a GearWrench 84 tooth fit in a Matco 88 tooth flexhead(both 3/8" drive)).
-Repaired a couple sticky 10" adjustable wrenches((1) old Utica brand that required a little filing on the thumbscrew to stock binding in places, and (1) old Diamond that just required some lubriction and working it back and forth to get some dirt out of the moving parts).
-Painted the Switch Panel I've been making to go on the front of the bin of the center console. Using a aluminum faceplate off a Radio Shack Project enclosure, painted with self etch primer, a thing coat of flat black, and then a coat of DupliColor Graphite wheel paint. Going to hold (3) toggle switches when I'm done.
Today I'm thinking of going out and figuring out a way of mounting up the 20" LED bar behind the grille. I'm not sure on how long it's going to last as I cut it down from a mangled 48" bar and all the integrated control circuitry was on one of the mangled boards, so my intention is to make it a universal 20" mount so if/when it dies, I can easily mount up another bar in it's place, without a lot of rewiring and modifying the mounts.
