Jerry S's Journal
So we have the powertrain removed and the car on jack stands in the garage at home. Lots of grime and grease to remove.
Short term I have built a 3x8 foot torsion box table to use for my plane of reference. Additionally I should receive my HF engine stands today and will start the construction of the rotisserie. Easter weekend they had a 25% coupon but I was at work so could not use (I work week on week off alternating between a week of days and a week of nights), so I ordered online. $7 to ship two engine stands from California to Texas!
Yesterday, I had a 230v/50amp outlet installed so that I can run anything I need. Mainly being my new compressor that YRC will be delivering Monday. I ended up buying a 5hp model from Northern Tool. There are so many choices in compressors I looked at this one and liked the capabilities and length of warranty for the money.

As soon as the compressor gets here I plan on building an after cooler setup and plumb the garage for air. I told my wife, "you know I am going to need a lot of tools for this job" She didn't flinch
Sadly some of the tools are duplicated as I have a compressor setup at my airplane hangar, but is not practical to move it home or back and forth.
Well time to get off the computer and get to work. So much to do, so little time!
