I'll have to go buy some more fittings and pipe before everything works the way I want it to...

I'm going to leave the existing air system alone, and run a new stub over to the painting area.

I'll put my fancy new air drier / regulator there.

coupla pieces of pipe, an elbow and some reducers, and we'll have a rocking clean set up to work with...

been matching stuff with shelvage.

it's starting to look like somebody works there...

@Rockhead,
I remember when he told me how the 4th of July was his favorite Holiday. Then when he was twelve his father passed away of a massive heart attack on the 4th of July. His father was only 42.

mid-forties is too young to die.

@Rockhead,
No, he was originally from Boston and that's where they are taking him. He and I got along great, makes you think, sometimes you don't have just one more day.

@jcboy,
Sorry to read that about your boss passing at such a young age.

Exactly right. If more people lived like it was their last day, I think there'd be a lot less Bullshit floating around.
