Framed in the last set of joists for the fantastic fan that's being transferred from the kit to the Amerigo, ordered the fiberglass cloth and resin to glass the raised roof area that's going in above the new bathroom in the Amerigo.

Applied PB Blaster penetrating lubricant to the threaded rods in my Torklift "Fastgun" tiedowns and hung upside down 'till next time.
This is the first time they've been lubricated in over ten years.

Fantastic Fan was running slowly and sounding anemic. Too much fine dust from working so many dusty horse shows had built up a thick gritty mass between the motor and fan blades. Did a deep cleaning and now it's spinning like it's brand new.

Looks great, Dan. I need one of those, too. Did you hire this out or do the job yourself?

Replaced a refrigerator vent on top after breaking the other one on a low hanging limb.

I think I have to replace my city water intake valve. After using it and then disconnecting, my pump will not prime.
