I'm Back

It's been a while since my last. Been busy with the latest project (can't say much it's a gift), and TRYING to find heat in my car. I think it's time for a new one. This old thing is requiring more T.L.C. that I want to give it. All the plumbing has been check to replaced and still no heat.

This week end will be one final attempt at the heater core. We'll see.

I really thing that auto engineers should spend a couple of years turning wrenches prior to designing automobiles. Change the water pump last weekend, had to almost disassemble the entire front-end of the engine to even see it. Same goes for the Heater core. It's under the dash, and you can't get it out without removing the dash. THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

No wonder it cost an arm and a leg to have simple service done these days. I almost think the engineers design in the labor costs for repairs.

Enough already.

I've spending some time with a new software tool (toy). I pulled a free version of a CAD program that I'm using to design some new things. It's a 3D CAD package which is overkill for what I need. Trying to find a cheap 2D drafting package, that's all I really need.

Enough for now. Short week next week with Thanksgiving. Can't believe that November is almost gone already. Gee how time flies when your having fun.
