WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY - WAYDT (PICS)

I had to have a leaky tube replaced in a gas boiler last December. It's interesting how they're press fitted into place.
@Filthy25ozJunkie:
I work for a contractor on heat exchangers in power plants, refineries, and factories. They have these heat transfer tubes and I clean them, test them in various ways, and retube them.
-
It's interesting for sure. I've never pulled just one tube before. In a scenario like that for just one tube we'd plug it on each end.
I did this a couple months ago pulling some tubes out with a slide hammer.
-
Well if We need some one the check the tubes on the old boiler at Bauman's. We know who to call on @Filthy25ozJunkie BTW next time don't hurt your self.

Thanks @twin I need some heavier slide hammerin' gloves.

Right now slowing sewing on a patch to the summer IH shirt since I wasn't digging the Iron to the Bone one.
I have aslo been making vintage looking signs for the outdoor studio which will look like a motorcycle shop. All signs are pretty much done but have one more sign I want to make.
This is the design I am going to work off of for the last sign
-
Done
-
Tonight's work, last sign. Might be a late one….
-
Tedious part done
-
Now I have to see if I want to do the hardest thing to it….a black outline/stroke. Probably won't due to the ridiculous amount if time it would take to get it perfect. Still have to age it and then protect it from the weather.
-
Aging stage 1
Aging stage 2
Just need to protect it then
-
If shipping wasn't an arm and a leg I could make you one at your desired size @Giles
