yoink 321 #26 July 12, 2017 Stumpy ******Hi Keith, Quote Have learned quite a bit from this thread. We are here to serve. Jerry Baumchen PS) Now, start teaching that young daughter about this stuff; she might just make a bundle & really take care of you in your old age. Jerry, you have no idea. This new generation growing up in a world where STEM is pushed hard to young ladies is something to see. Her capacity to look at things and figure out how to take them apart and put them back together is astounding. Computers are a breeze, programming is boring.. She says she wans to be a mechanical engineer. I told her "You can do what you want as long as I never see you with wrenches around my Harley." "Errrr dad I managed to get it apart but I am having trouble putting it back together....." I destroyed a vintage valve amplifier when I was growing up. I think those were the EXACT words I said. Dad's were a little harsher. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,451 #27 July 12, 2017 I ended up with too many leftover pieces of my father's bicycle. But I got him a new one (with my brothers' help) Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
