mercer transportation

put some nuts and bolts in it and put it on a vibrating sander

 

He wants to clean the inside not make it into a pasta drainer.

 

Cap where the feed hose attaches, spray a lot of Berrymans Chemtool in it, add a small handful of pea gravel (or BBs, nuts, bolts), put the cap on and shake it until you can't lift it. Drain and shake out whatever you put in, spray in some more Chemtool to rinse it and it should be bright and shiny.

I'm home every night. I basically live in my truck since we rented our house out. Lol. We stay with family when we go to our "home base." Lol

 

Nope.... She don't want in the truck and I don't ask. It keeps peace in the family.

 

I'm working on getting close to the way you work less and stay home more but the biggest obstacle for me is my wife. She can only take so much of me over a period of time. Lol.

 

Just had a day of hxxl loaded at power plant the guy with the step deck who was supposed to get the load after me shows up 5am loading started at 7 am my appointment time I was there 6:45 I was not in a hurry so no Big dale I got his load a Connex and some toolboxes they drop the connex up front I didn’t think much about it hauled them there before a mile down the road I noticed my drive air pressure was boarding on over weight closest scale was 30 miles out of route 60 miles from plant and there was another scale 90 miles away and in route and I was thinking it wasn’t very much over if any and if it was I would just pull all my chains and binders and drop them in the trailer boxes got to the scale turn out to be 760 pounds over moved everything I had to the back of the trailer couldn’t get it under 460 pounds overweight all the way back to the power plant un-strap un-tarp they pull all the boxes off move the Connex to the center put boxes upfront all said and done got just enough time left on my 14 hour clock pull out the gate and pull over in the first spot I could fine

I am heading to Savanna Georgia Will run as far as I can tomorrow and go the rest Monday morning

 

That does sound like a bit of exercise. I've never been harassed for being over axle on less than 1000 lbs as long as I'm under gross. Actually, the only time I got popped for any overweight was 1500 lbs over on the trailer with a load of road salt on in the hopper bottom on the cusp of a blizzard. Iowa isn't a very lenient state lol.

 

Thats a lot of time and effort for 400 lbs. I'd have ate the ticket, IF the officer bothered to writer one for such a piddly amount.

 

Hey, whatever works. I wouldn't be out here if my wife didn't come.
