The rain finally quit yesterday afternoon. Before bringing the frame back outside to do more sandblasting today, I decided to take Nancy for a ride on my BMW motorcycle. Had a great ride and breakfast at Laura's restaurant with No Job Johnny. After we got home Nancy helped me get the frame out and my little blast tent set up. I decided to do a little mowing of the yard before I got into it. I found about one quarter of the lawn is still so wet it can't be mowed yet.
Anyway got all set up and blasted about 4 feet of the bottom side of one frame rail and the sand quit coming. I had ordered some new tips from Sears on May 8th because I knew this one was wearing out. Well, it finally did. No new tips from Sears yet and the new pressure blaster from Eastwood isn't going to be shipped till the 26th. Called Sears to find out where the new nozzles were. Guess what, computer problems and had to be reordered and will be here the 26th maybe. Not all is lost, Nancy and I are getting our exercise lifting the frame up and down. I will work on small parts till some kind of blasting equipment shows up. Suppose to rain again on the 26th.
