Should have had body shop rust kill and replace the cab corners on my old Ford LONG ago, no coin or time at that time so was dismissed, Now needs a Cab I have no intention of changing. Engine had several under VC harness sets, a full set glow plugs, glow plug control, vacuum controls for 4wd and vacuum pump, misc tubing seals beyond the other recorded stuff.

Looks great. For something different, try making a roux first. Then make your stew, or gravy, or gumbo with that roux.
Here is a video about making roux.

Although I m afraid that this thread d be deleted. I think we need this kinda thread where may talk bout things not conected to each other, or smthing special. Look at this machine, these guys have good ideas. There are many other options.

That machine is crazy - I like it :)

Covid19. Second round, many sick ppl in my city. My bro and whole his family are sick, he and his wify are in regional hosp. At my work one man of 47 died a week ago, . about four other ppl I ve known died also. Me n my wify took vaccine shots. My daughter and her husb are not sick but are virus carrier, got positive results. Every day I take a antivirus medicine just to suppres it if I get infected. And every evening we do pine oil inhalation. Put four drops of oil into a boiled water and breath fumes weth face covered over it. No panic outside still not many ppl wear a face mask. only in shops. Mostly older ppl and those who have heart and lung decease got died/

We have a lot of people sick according to the news people. My son in law caught it and brought it home from work. He was pretty sick but fought it off pretty well. It went through the rest of that family. None of them got real sick at all. Most people are wearing masks when I go to the stores. Everyone on work sites has a mask and puts it on when someone gets close. We do have people who protest and gather to make noise so the media can record and broadcast it. Around here most seem to be church people. There have been a wide range of ages in people who are dying around here. I know of a couple my client's who have lost relatives to the disease. Stay well and healthy.

It's beef stew for supper tonight. Beautiful weather here lately. Lows in the 50s at night and highs in the 70s F. during the day.

Everybody around here is tired of the Corona Virus. We wear masks when we have to. We have not been sick. We have been around some who got it though. Maybe we are lucky. We do take vitamins and immune booster with Vitamin D gummies every day. No vaccine is available to us yet here. My dad is 81 year old and he needs the vaccine.
