There is a good reason they enjoy each others company, one is just slightly smarter than the other....

As a former contractor, if it is not written down and signed, then any agreement made does not exist. On the other hand, if I messed up and installed a door that swings the wrong way, I should fix it. The best way to deal with this IMHO, is to talk it over with the contractor, and give him the oppourtunity to make it right. As for the split trim, that should have been replaced no questions asked. With air nailers it is rare to split trim from nailing.

How could nothing turn into a hot topic?????? It's the winternet!

A man of few words I see....

IMHO a lot of his "games" border on criminal behavior.

As the owner/renovator of a "cat house" I can say with certainty that they are very destructive when left free.

Why not use a packpack blower? They move snow quite well.

Speaking of Commander Tom:

As I leave to rehearse for a Christmas performance I am now going to have this as an earworm.....thanks

Durn ingineers, always makin us handy guys look like idjits.... Thanks for the tip, Wayne, handy having an electrical engineer at our disposal Today was not a waste, I learned something.

take the motors into duke electric on Barton, they might be able to rewind them.

The first time I had that it was straight out of the shell, mmm mmmm GOOD! Mind I was in Belguim at the time, boy can they cook there.

You REALLY need to get mobile again, don't you?? Thanks for the read (s)!

I am planning on drifting a big creek, the Niagara.

I'm in the same boat, I'm up for it, heck we can even go in my boat....

How it was:

How about Saturday morning cartoons, Bugs bunny, mighty mouse, all in glorious black and white.

I am going to drop the motor, and see if that makes a difference, spun hubs and all that are way to early to diagnose, it has only been run 1/2 hour by a very inexperienced captain. BTW no rubber in the prop either. The fellow who rigged the motor was not the most impressive guy I met. He has a NGD attitude about the whole thing. (NGD = nobody gives a damn)

I also need driving lessons, I am afraid of the up trim button.

It had a bent pin in the wiring harness that was preventing #4 from firing. As well, two cracked coil drivers and a cracked starter soleniod. It runs like a scalded cat now though....

I was finally able to launch my boat today with a running motor. This is the restored 1985 370V that i have been working on this year. I launched in Hamilton harbour, and after warm up, I trolled out to the main water and punched it. 3 second hole shot. Top speed is unknown as my GPS is not working right now but I was impressed. Bayfront park to the Skyway bridge in 4 minutes of face freezing exhiliration. Now on to the questions...I had the prop break loose on me twice, (blow out) and the hull swung out and got back in line right away, so I am wondering if I have the motor too high? It is on a 6" manual jackplate set at I think 3.5" below the pad. The motor is a 2004 150HP Optimax. Any input is welcome.

If you don't show up, Kenzy's gonna Merder you.....

A very good rendition of the Halleluja chorus.

Thanks to both of you. I will run it past my brother in law and see what he thinks.
