bored

I'm not a winter guy. All projects go on hold and I can barely get out of depression to go to work. Winter here is cold. I thought I would get used to it but this year was record snow with record cold for most of December and we are currently heading into another cold snap. On the up side work has treated me well and I will soon be the proud new owner of a Rotor harness. I'm living vicariously through the internet/blogs and am getting excited for the new season ahead. Along with the new harness I'm keeping an eye out for a topless glider. Before the cold set in I redid some stuff on the winch. there is only one spring now and I've gotten rid of the small pulley in favor of a larger one with larger bearings. This should get rid of the self destruct mode once and for all I hope. It seams there will always be ways to make something better when you take on a project like that. I will likely be using it be April. We'll see then.

Saw the gasifier -cool, except there is no wood in Southern Alberta. OK cottonwood but that doesn't count as real wood - gonna have to move back to God's country where the wood grows on trees...
