Got the old Karcher pressure washer working, little Tecumseh flathead vertical shaft engine with the carburetor bolted on with some of the most inacessible hardware possible. Luckily no need to pull it, the fuel float bowl nut is also the high jet, it had some varnish and sludge but no corrosion, easiest carburetor clean up ever. Replaced old fuel line with new, freed float needle with WD40, slapped it back together, added fresh fuel, and it fired up on the second pull. This isn't even a good Tecumseh engine but it is miles better than the B&S and PowerMore junk that is avalable today. Pressure washer itself seems to work fine for a little 2000psi/2.0GPM unit you just pick up and carry to where it's needed.

Don't remember the particular brand but all of the base cabinets needed considerable work to get them square enough just to install. Name-brand Euro-style soft-close door hinges and drawer guides but attached with minimal hardware and way out of level with the cabinet. Everything had to be taken apart and reattached. The uppers were a little better.

Amazing how the low-IQ LWNJ's and RINO's lose what's left of their tiny minds over unsubstantiated, poorly contextualized claims.
Can be incredibly lucrative and is a very solid business to get into.

Well no shite, they can only eat what they can afford and elevators are pay-to-use in most commercial and residential complexes. Not going to get too fat on a small food budget and walking up and down several flights of stairs every day.

The Liechtenstein rep? Sabine Monauni I think, also a deputy prime minister of the so-called conservative FBP.
Pretty much all 3rd world shite holes that usually spend their time begging for money at every UN assembly.
I went through that years ago, clearing vines from the back of my old property but couldn't burn them. Tried bagging them but that was quickly found to be a miserable chore. Went to HF and got a 5HP chipper/shredder just to see and it worked amazingly well. I tuned up the cutters myself before first use, made sure they were truly sharp. Made short work of the vines, dead oak limbs and other stuff, had mulch I could easily shovel most into bags and some spread along the back fence.

Bright and sunny mild weather today, good for a Citizen eco satelite. Also, for the discussion on smaller men's watches, my grandfather's Omega that was a Christmas gift from his wife in 1956. At one point in time, watchmakers demonstrated skill by showing how small they could package a movement.

Took 2.5 days of use-or-lose leave to have a 4.5 day weekend starting today, finally have cooler weather to use it with too. Replacing an outdated 50" TV with new one, washing my vehicles, see if I can get my dad's old Karcher 2000QT pressure washer going again, and then go to the local lumber yard for some stuff to finally build a heavy-duty work bench in my backyard. That's just for today...:lol: I have closet shelving and flooring work for the rest of my "time off".
