Slingshotting

This is my first attempt at making a slingshot. I copied a design based on a slingshot I got from Jörg Sprave of slingshotchannel.com

Working on the steering gear

Part of trying to get the truck back up and running, and passing inspection is repairing the steering gear. It had a leak and wouldn’t pass inspection. While I could have just cleaned it off and probably gotten it done, I’d also like to actually have the truck not leak fluids.

So I did a small rebuild of it. I wasn’t able to get one side apart, which was the more complex side. I’ll need to fab up a wrench to get the nut off. But I did replace the seals and gaskets where it was leaking, so hopefully that takes care of that. Figured I would clean it up and repaint it as well.

It’s all coming together.

All right, this little app thing seems to be decent. And while I do miss my integration of geeklog and gallery it looks like there might be some plugins I can use, in addition to just the rudimentary gallery that is available here in WordPress. And look at that, auto correct capitalized WordPress for me. That reminds me, I need to turn auto correct off.

I’ll probably tweak the theme a bit in the coming weeks. Still have more appointments to get to though and a truck to work on. Since this integration seems to work well though I will probably do more regular updates, though don’t hold me to that.

Testing the absorbency

All right. Testing posting from a device using this blogsy app. We'll see how that goes.
