What did you do to / in your garage / shop today?

Sometimes it's nice to do a project where you just settle into a groove and go.
But I'm pretty sure my attention span would be fighting that groove all the way to the end.

It is. Just pop in the ear buds on the days selection and go. One of my weld fixtures does 5 left and right pairs at a time.

But at some point, you look at the not done pile after going for what seemed like an eternity and yer only half done :(

What are those?

The welded pieces are Polaris XP1000, Turbo S, Pro XP rear sway bar disconnect brackets.

The just cut plate is Can Am X3 front and rear sway bar disconnect brackets.

SxS rock crawling stuff is my jam.

haven't recovered from the move yet, so...nothing. Haven't even driven the Jeep in about 11 days.

Replaced my sister in-laws brakes, cleaned up & lubed the slide pins and bled the lines. It has a rotating rear caliper pistons - never came across that before.

I am waiting on a 45° schedule 80 elbow so I can complete my subpanel. This has been a real hard piece to find and had to order it online. I placed my Ace Hardware order on Sunday, and it is still showing the order as "processing"😑

My only knockout that I can use, this panel is in such a dumb spot.

Appreciate the offer! 1.5", if not, then no worries. I could probably order online from elsewhere, was just hoping to get one this weekend as it is supposed to be mid 50s with blue skies.

Do you have access to a conduit bender? You could make your own.

Only a 1/2". This is for the SER (1/0-1/0-1/0-2), so it needs to be 1.5" conduit. A 10' galvanized pipe is $75🤯 Flexible conduit (needs to ship) is $65. I've already got a 1.5"x10' schedule 80 rigid pipe, just need the one short 45°
