World of Concrete 2018 - Met Kasey Kahne - Las Vegas - Putzmeister- Gold...

Had a super time at World of Concrete 2018. I was lucky enough for my employer, Gibbs Construction, to send me there for continuing education.

I took a bunch of classes for continuing education to apply against the requirements of my PMP certification.

While we were there we took in a NHL hockey game, and I had the opportunity to meet Kasey Kahne.

I really look forward to my next trip to World of Concrete.

How to remove and replace an Ice Maker in a Whirlpool French Door Refrig...

Our fridge stopped making ice. It just clicked, so I knew it was something mechanical.

I researched the part numbers on whirlpool's part website. This allowed me to ensure that I had the correct part number. I then purchased the required part on Amazon and saved at least 50%.

The video below is the actual "How To" video on removing and replacing that Ice Maker.

If you have any questions, please put them in the comments or email me and I will get right back to you.

Automotive Addictions

Addictions.

Some folks have addictions to drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, and even more undesirable things. Personally I think I have a problem with junk cars and trucks. Seems like something you wouldn’t have a liking for, but for as long as I remember, I loved all things automotive. When I was younger I could recite car types, and specifications like some folks call out statistics for baseball or football.

So Schafer and I were discussing this about two years ago, and one of the things were talking about was the number of cars that we have had. I said that I probably have had 20 operable and in-operable vehicles. He chuckled and said that he thought that it was probably a few more. So I told him I would eventually make a list. Well I hadn’t done that until now, and here is the list:

1. 1968 Torino GT Fastback 289 4 speed – Paid $150 to John Zontini’s dad. Dad drove it home cause I was only 15. Bought it in 1984.
2. 1976 Ford Courier pickup – Paid $50 cause the head was off of it casue it get blowing head gaskets. Dad and I had the head milled and then put it back together. Then it blew again.
3. 1973 Ford Torino – 351 Windsor – rust bucket. I think we paid $50 for it. Then Dad and I bought a used idler arm for $5. Used this while I worked at Rax.
4. 1969 Ford Torino Fastback – Was originally a 351 Cleveland. I changed it to a 390 -4 speed. Kept it drove it while in high school. Sold finally in 1993. Should have kept it.
5. 1963 Ford Falcon. Paid $300. Took out a loan and dad cosigned for it, imagine that. Gave it to Don when I went in the service. He traded it for the 1968 Torino convertible.

So Mike was right, I have a problem!  I don’t deny it, but it isn’t that bad really?? I support a bunch of junkyards, and part suppliers. I know that some of the places know me by name.

If you get a chance swing by my YouTube channel to see me work on this stuff!
