Wheel Wednesday Redux

Wheels for the new car that went about 500 miles and got yanked off and replaced with new studded tires and wheels because uncontrollable sliding sucks

These are monsters,...

You could be completely correct

I’m 68 and not all the cells are still firing

I knew what you meant before I even clicked on the link

Those have been around for years but I have never seen one in person

I remember seeing them on late night TV

My father in law, who...

Maybe that was it, I had a few Chevys over the years

Maybe I just didn't have the correct socket

It has been decades, that much I remember (or don't remember as the case may be)

I had a vehicle once (can't remember which one) that had lug nuts with a thin chromed metal sleeve over the lug nut just about like yours but they were kind of crimped in at the base so the sleeves...

Thanks, I like the Megs HCW as a base and then I have a spray bottle of the HCW and distilled water at 1:3 that I spritz and rinse after maintenance wheel washes, and it rejuvenates and extends the...

Thanks for the invite and the next time we are in the area I will take you up on lunch or something

I love nitrile gloves for about 5 minutes and then I have sweated in them so much they are...

Weird I got mine first

It left SLC and then hit 2 stops in Washington State but was a day early

I also noticed on the tracking update that it mentioned Amazon somehow

I know the company has...

Nope, it was the wife, not me

She was a commissioned officer in the US Public Health Service

Their commanding officer is the Surgeon General

They aren’t technically military but they are one...

I’ve honestly lost count of the number of times we have driven the Alcan Highway in the last 35 years

When we first came up in early May of 1989 it was still mostly gravel and pretty brutal

We...

Finished wheel set number 1

2 coats of Megs HCW wiped on with a slightly dampened applicator and buffed between coats and 2 coats of Perl at 2 parts Perl to 1 part water, knocked down between...

I always chuckle driving through the Yukon and British Columbia and seeing the signs in English and French and the French part is just like that label, 3 times as long

Plus outside of a few people...

I like the long Ridgid one for reaching under seats, and deep nooks and crannies but for 90% of the time a short slim one is still the best option when working around upholstery and stuff

Was the car covered and outside?

Those look like abrasion marks from a car cover rubbing on the paint in the wind

Do you have the means to correct or polish the areas?

Got my snout

2 minutes 45 seconds in when the hose started dragging along the bedrail and fender I had to shut it down

Sorry

I know I’m a day early but I got 3 sets of studded tires/wheels to swap out in the next week so I thought I’d get a jump on things

Summer shoes for the little blue car

He slabbed these to 5/4 and will be ripping them to dimensional lumber for a project

We did another large birch last fall and he slabbed it 8/4 and he is leaving that live edge for a special...

I don't really know about leaving the live edge or not

The tree was mine but ripping lumber is my sons deal and I don't know if he already has plans for the wood or not

I just like running my...

My son and I cut down a huge dead birch and ripped some lumber from it

I broke out the pressure washer and garden hoses for the first time this year to see if the PW pump had survived winter in the unheated shed

I used Sta-Bil PW pump winterizer last fall and was...

Well the good news is this thing is one hell of a yard blower

It will easily blow the traction gravel that I had to spread on the driveway a few times to the side of the driveway

So as far as user experience and results so far, is there any other RW that you would say it feels or behaves like?
