How It's Made

Ha: A year ago I made one trip in search of Wild R/T, that was enough for awhile again.

If your looking around the Canadian border your not gonna find me.. Better go back to working the counter at the Speed Shop......

Nope: That first shot was a small town west of you (San Jose I think). I spent a few days all over that area.  I spent two days in Modesto waiting for 1 lousy skid of fruit, then over to Monterey or Salinas for the rest of the load. It was over 100 which didn't making waiting any better. I like your area though.
That last shot was waiting at the border after 7 days on the road and reminds me to never do that again. You're right, selling Chebby parts is easier for a supposed to be retired guy like me.

If you spent two days here you should have messaged me, I'd at least take ya to McDonald's...

it's always interesting to see how everyone pays the bills. I like it!

[RUNCHARGER]

I agree: It's kind of neat to see what other people do.

For 18 years I made blow molds for plastic bottles ( lots were shampoo)  That brings back some memories going to plants trouble shooting.

That is so interesting. I as well cant show the brands of elastic I make but go to Walmart or some the High end stores and you can see them.

A lot of work and thinking goes into the machinery to move and do those products , epicyclic walking heads etc.
Interesting !

Good work Goody: There's a lot involved in making it right, weight, space, longevity, comfort, eye appeal and cost of course. Paccars were my favorite, nice ride, no squeeks, good quality switches etc.

Roof is spray foam insulated to sub-straight and has an R value of 55.

Main room window is the largest warrantable window I could get in America.  (there is larger, but no warranty)

I could see 4 mountain ranges from this building site.  So I got about 5 sunrises a day and 5 sunsets a day. Absolutely Beautiful
