PSA Carb floats should NOT have gas in them😂 Hopefully my JB Weld fix will hold until the new one is delivered😬 Y'all have a great day👍

Solder works better - if you can find the hole(s) or crack(s). (resin or acid flux, I've used both to repair floats with no issues.)
If the float is copper, a soldering iorn (or wood burner's wide tip) will heat it enough to slow the solder. No need for a torch.
JB MIGHT dissolve, which can give a massive head hurt getting it out of the jets and all them itty bitty carb passages. ☹️
(don't ask me: "How do you know that?" 🙄)
Solder also weighs less than JB, so it won't/can't cause the float to sink, flooding the engine, and can be a permanant repair. 😁👍
 
I almost caught the tactical folder but again this week, i was carrying my pm2 and 940-2 but i couldn’t stand the bulk in my pocket so i switched back to be beloved stockman. It reminded me why i love traditional knives, the simplicity and beauty of thin, nimble blades.
This stockman is special to me becuase it appears to have two different jigging patterns on either cover.

Yeah, this one is plastic unfortunately. Its going to rain all weekend, so I'm just gonna chuck the old one and wait for the new one. Better safe than sorry🙃
 
Just another summer day here in the City by the Bay! 39 and counting! On this day in the Presidential Suite of the Stanford Court on the top of Nob Hill I married my beautiful bride. Man what a party! And like I tell her every year, it seems like only yesterday. Giants play later and keeping me company will be the usual lamb and SAK. Have a great weekend folks! 😀

Very handsome Mr P :cool: :thumbsup:

This one arrived just 5 minutes ago, a generous gift from Charlie @waynoth :) I didn't think my pockets could get any fancier today, but can't resist carrying it :) :thumbsup:

Sweet pair Bob !
Secret to a happy marriage ~ she lets you watch a ball game, and you let her do what she likes🤙
Hope for many more!

Appreciate that, mate.
As I thought, have to schedule an extraction with an oral surgeon. Sigh…

Bummer, I had to do the same last year, lower first molar.


Old and New, Kabar and GEC...
