GOOD MORNING EVERYONE
 

To Friends turned into enemies, winter bound sailors, Flonkers,
netkkopprs everyone. GOOD MORNING!!

A beautiful Day here in the Pacific Northwest. 6 AM and the Sun is
shining. Dog and I are going the get in a morning sail and then to my
Son house for a Ham Dinner.

Took the family out to Dinner last night for my Son Fifty-fourth
Birthday. Great Dinner

A good nights sleep and woke up to a beautiful day. Everything is right
with the world

Decided it was time to start repairing the bent and battered ASA! It
was hit hard by Gale Winds but it survived!

Time to be friends again. Let's get this group back to the ASA that was
the best damn, most active sailing group on the 'net

So! Good Morning; The first day of the rest of our lives! Let's make
them count!!!

Ole Thom

Top of the morning back to ya Thom!

Its a fine cool crisp morning here is well. Had a nice sunrise sail
Winds kickin from the north and has a fast jib only run E&W along the
north shore.

Oiling up the needle gun, the asshole next door...the guy with the loud
stereo need to wake up.

Joe

Well, I awoke to a good 6" of snow on the ground here. We have had two or
three weeks of 70's and 80's, sunshine, getting the boat ready, etc. But
today is an indoors day! Strange weather, probably due to global cooling
due to the work of evil liberals.

Red Cloud, or your dinghy?

What's a needle gun? Something for rust, I presume.

Scotty,
A Snark that actually gets sailed would be a better choice
than any boat that bobspit uses for bragging on the Internet.

Right you are, old friend. The weather here also couldn't be more
beautiful.

The Dink..

Yes an air powered chipping hammer like this one:

Removes all rust! sounds like 12 people banging on iron skillets all at
once.

Morning to you Scott,

Back from my morning sail. Breeze quit about 10:00 AM ( For picky, picky
Lon;- sorry about the extra 0)

Made a cup of coffee and a cup of soup. Dog didn't get sick! Finally
fired up the metal Genny and powered in.

No complaints. Got out and home in time to check list and get ready for
Sunday Dinner

Take it easy on the Folgers..
the caffeine will take its toll..
a powerful drug that would be on the prescribed prescription
list if it were discovered today.

Do you wire wheel after using that? Or is that better than a wire
wheel?

It is better than a wire wheel, but I do go over it with a wheel to
make sure I have bright shiny steel, then feather the paint edges with
a 100 grit sanding disk. After than apply Ends all Rust a Dupont rust
converter similar to Ospho or Navel Jelly. After that 3 sprayed on
coats of Primer, waiting till each coat dries. After that 2 thick coats
of Paint. Today I was removing old paint with the neddle gun, in the
area where the deck meets the bulwarks around the stern, it had just
buildt up to thick in areas and needed removing, also spotting out the
bulwarks in prep to paint all the decks and apply new non-skid.

Wasent a planned job but it was soooo nice out today with no humidity
which is rare in Houston I figured Id never get a beeter day to do this
annoying job, This area is one of the hardest to get to due to the aft
stays, the mizzen stay and handrails all pinning you against the stern
cabin. It's one of those jobs you want perfect conditions so you do not
have to do it again for 5-7 years.

I'm finished working ...and your earlier thread convinced me to make a
fresh pot of Folgers.

Soon I will have to head out and put up the air compressor, spray rig,
and tools, clean up the dock, wash the car, and then I have a couple
hours of Work work I have to get done tonight for the AM. And I get to
do a couple of Honey Dew projects....

Joe

I use an air chisel with for the big stuff, then wire cup in a 7''
grinder. Sand blast the corners and brackets where the wheel can't
get. 3 coats primer, 3 coats paint, from a spray gun..

I wonder if I could get a head ,like the one you showed, for my air
chisel?
