Need to call it a night. Got to get up and go at it in the earlier am than I am used to lately, so till later, folks… 😉And it’s back up with no problems that I see. Nice!And it says it’s done. Guess its time to reboot and see if it comes back up…In the process of upgrading the new Debian system from Squeeze to Wheezy. Hoping it all works out.
And now am really beat. Time to sit, unlax, and browse for a bit.Assorted tools and items that rain could hurt are under cover. Hoping precautions not necessary but will be working at the mall tomorrow.Both outside firewood piles that were uncovered are recovered as well as the pile of building materials. Rest of the table parts now inside.Hoping the stuff I have got to get done is now done. Rest of wood unloaded from trailer. Back porch wood pile replenished.Now to go out and see if I can get the other legs done. After coffee…Stuff mostly done. Am much tireder now than before I went over to the other trailer, but got the shelving in the back of the truck.Got one leg done. Kinda sorta. 3 more to go. And totally worn out with stuff I still gotta do before tomorrow. Guess I need to get at it…Guess this is just one of those days. Gonna eat lunch and start on the table again…Hammered the hole down a bit and drove it back in. Went to find the locktite. No joy. Neither bottle. 🙁 Found super glue, used that.Went to put the 1/4 inch in the drill and the chuck key cross handle fell out. You know, on the new one I just put on the chain. 🙁Found dowel centers in the 4th or 5th toolbox I looked in. Then the hunt for the drills was on. Found them after a short (5 minute) hunt.The table was assembled with nails & glue originally, so not really sure why I’m even trying, but if it’s worth doing it’s worth overdoing.Now to find the bag of dowel centers so I can do all the other doweling that I’m gonna have to do to finish the reassembly correctly.Find the drill bits. Locate the dowels. And the glue. And the clamps. Finally after about an hour get the leg doweled, and clamped down.On the small diameter leg they won’t work. Grind the points to the same length and then resharpen. Find the center on both pieces.
Now to update and install some additional software.Was also one of the fastest installs I have seen. I figured something had screwed up but seems to all be working fine. 😉Got it (Debian LXDE) installed on a hard drive now and it’s actually not quite as fast (on first boot anyway) as on the usb drive.Gmail doesn’t like Iceweasel. Course I am liking Google anything less and less, so piss on em…Well that the FASTEST I have rebooted into a new OS on this or any machine!Going to reboot into Debian Live on usb thumb drive and see how it looks. Hope to be back in a bit… 😉Think I’ll tear into the other Korean mech next as it’s the same as the one I just finished.Which makes 4 clocks ticking away in the room around me. Which leaves either 5 or 6 more to get going.Got one of the 31 day Korean clocks ticking away after much filing & notching of teeth. Along with replacing 3 bushings & polishing pivots.
live http://t.co/D9uNwYa9 Gonna have to try this out. They have cd, dvd, and usb images. Cool!Suspect I’ll have to disassemble it and do a through cleaning soon. Lots of crud around the pivots. Gonna let it run a while first though.Got the Russian Submarine clock down from the wall upstairs, took it apart, oiled it, and got it running again. Tis ticking away nicely. 😉Still under the weather. Been playing around with Puppy Linux most of the day. Tis extremely fast on this machine running from thumb drive.
The login bit may have been our internet connection as Twitter is acting f lackey now.Took quite a while to log in but tis now online and connected. Now to figure out what other apps I can’t live without.Looks like it will download and install now that I have restarted and saved the previous session to disk.Trying the newest Puppy Linux and so far am much pleased. Now if I can get Skype running…Writing the 32 bit version to thumbdrive to try again.Had hoped it would work, but guess I should have tried it from the thumb drive.So much for the 64 bit version of Pear OS. 🙁 Another coaster created…Managed to get it burned. Now to see if I can get it to install in an unused partition.Was within about a minute of starting a dvd of Pear OS Linux when the power went out here. 🙁 Gonna try again now the winds calmed some.
And after hours trying to figure it out/fix the problems, just not worth the effort to me.Supposed to be in persistant mode but after 4 or 5 installs think I’m gonna give up on it. Tis fast, but still lotta stuff not right.Have caught a bug so spending the day on the computer. Been trying to install Dreamlinux on a thumb drive and its not working right.
Happy New Year all! Am now gonna call it a night, if I can sleep with all the explosions going on around here…Will most likely make a new one. Most likely of stainless steel. Tis good to have a new project, as I don’t have enought to do already. 😉Missing pieces, I plan to make in iron or steel in the forge. Water tank has a hole or two in it. Enamaled so not sure how to repair.But since I’m gonna have to build the room/kitchen it will reside in, don’t think that should be much of a problem.Has a few cracked cast iron bits. A piece or two missing, but overall looks to be in good condition. Am looking to do a complete tear down.After an hour + of taking it apart enough to get into the back of the truck with the camper shell still on that is. Needs lots of TLC.Am the new owner of a 6 eye wood burning cook stove. After I finished cutting wood went to look at it, bought it & brought it home.
