Starting a "What did you Get today" thread. Let's give it a try (dont forget pics)

Needed a new grill. Tired of not so cheap crap that only lasts a couple of years before I have to rebuild it, replace burners, grates, etc.

Weber's are expensive but get good reviews. Broke down and bought a Weber. I had to assemble it. Seems well thought-out and designed and decent quality.

Went past a barn sale yesterday. They had a sign out - "Classy Crap Horders"

Nice score. I really need to get my cast iron cookware out and use it in the house.

We have stopped in their before. Chuckled at a couple of MREs they had for sale. Small place but decent pricing. We were on the way to Tractor Supply when we noticed them.

Got Propane today. Had to go to three different places to find some but I found two tanks to exchange. I put 10 gallons of gas in my boss’s car. He took care of my cats while I was up north. He was happy. Many Gas stations around here are still bone dry. The ones that have gas have cars lined up for 1/2 mile. If they get a delivery in the morning They usually run out by the evening. I have a full tank in the truck and 22 gallons in gas cans I brought down from NY. I should be good to go for a couple of weeks if I don’t telework. If I do I will be good for a month.

the Cmmg 22LR bolt, barrel and four 25 round mags which I ordered 12 weeks ago

Cool, I was wondering how that was going for you.

Just started to mill 80% Lower for it a minute ago. Bought a CMC 2.5 pound drop in trigger for it too.

My limited edition hats came in today. They are some sweet snapback caps made with tanned leather American flags that are sewn over sections of Navy SEAL Slade Cutrer’s used combat uniforms (one AOR1 and one AOR2) that he donated for the cause. 20% of the proceeds went to the Danny Dietz foundation. Slade Cutrer was on SEAL Team 8 and then made it to SEAL Team 6/DEVGRU. He’s also the Co-Founder of GBRS Group for anyone that’s looking for some nice content to take a look at.

Sweet!

Once you get it set up, please post your impression of it. I've been looking at flagpoles for a while and don't know what to get.

 

[Will556]

Had if for a while, just forgot to post it. The Aero EPC build is gonna be sick! The Dead Air Wolfman is modular and configurable. You can remove the end portion of it to run it in its short (K) configuration. Full size has 11 baffles and running it in the smaller version removes the last 4 and makes it a 7 baffle design. The end cap also allows to run it with wipes to drop the decibels even more.

So far I can share this. I remember why I transitioned to more of a desk job. Digging holes sucks. This one called for 18” diameter by 26” deep. I really miss digging in the South Texas sands. This glacial shit blows. Tomorrow is the pour and then hopefully she is flying on Sunday.

Trust me, the more time you spend at that desk, the harder those holes will be to dig.

Today I began the process of Cerakoting my AK. Completely disassembled it the other day in preparation for it. Getting all the oil/grease out of AK’s is annoying based on the inherent design. Oil gets behind and in between the rails, trunnion, and rivets. Which requires multiple applications of degreasing and gassing out to eventually remove 100% of the oil before the parts can be sandblasted and sprayed. I’ve got all the parts completely degreased and sandblasted because the main receiver/barrel assembly (due to the oil issues I states before). The degreasing of the receiver/barrel assembly will continue early tomorrow where I can hopefully remove it all and get all the parts sprayed.

Here you can see the oil (darker areas around the rivets. Remaining oil is also around and behind the rails that are welded on the inside of the receiver) that still remains and continuing rising to the surface from the degreasing and gassing out process.

Happy to find this so posting twice.

Just around midnight last night and after completing the third degreasing soak for my receiver/barrel assembly, it’s still holding oil. This little Russian bitch has obviously summoned the powers of Saint Cosmoline. Don’t you worry, I’ve got a plan for it today.

If you can figure out how to boil that in a lye solution, all your dreams will come true!
