Tempe, Arizona.  Home of Arizona State University.  Temperature was 115 degrees F, gets down to 100 at night!  Had dust storms last two nights, visibility down to 500 ft or less.  Hard to work in garage or use my welder when it is like this.    :bang:

I'm in south central Arkansas.Anybody here living near me??
.
.I check in here periodically hoping to see somebody build fullscale gas engine.... When weather cools soon I will be casting parts to build  a 2hp water cooled single cylinder 2 stroke outboard boat engine,, fullsized copy of one of the 1939 Muncies that I have. I might use an original iron cylinder so maybe I wont be building every single part myself...Several of the parts are very challenging parts to make anyway...Most of the pieces will be bronze castings....Its very cool having all the machines and the skills to build virtually anything .Its a very special hobby....unfortunate that I know nobody local that shares my interests .
I am not actually retired ,I merely find myself disabled by an intolerance for productive activity.

How about moving up here were I am. It's a bit cooler for doing castings.  :)

Ya, it's a bummer when there's nobody around close that shares your interest. One thing you need to rememeber too is that many people have no idea were the products orginate from. All they know is that you buy it at the store.

   Its hot and humid and uncomfortable here right now but its real nice  here in the winter. I run the air conditioning in the shop all summer but I do not heat it in the winter.Seldom goes lower than 50F inside my well insulated shop.....Much of the year its pleasant to be outside doing castings... ...
.
 True enough that 'many' people have no idea how anything is manufactured..And its not too satisfying to show'em something you built or repaired because they have no idea , and no interest in how you did it..For that reason the internet helps a lot, can finally carry on a conversation with folks with same interests.....

I've started a new thread called "Making things" in the Watercooler so this thread won't go off topic with our discusion of making things.
