Very nice! And much closer than I am.

I wish I got in the garage that night, but we had a bunch of family over so it didn't happen. Holidays kinda killed my shop time even more than usual. I am just now re-doing something I have very recently done today, which is really annoying. But hey, at least the 4 days straight of rain we are supposed to get hasn't hit yet so I am able to be messing with this.

Haha, I have been using a heat shrink printer for work for about 15 years! The one I have is now obsolete and I bought up all the tubing stock I could find, which is probably useless because I probably can't get the ink ribbons anymore. This Dymo system is about 10% of the price I paid back then. I like it.

Got a few hours yesterday to head out to the shop. Got the brakes on the rear axle and got all the chassis side brake plumbing done. My SS lines for all the moving parts were supposed to be here Friday but never showed so I hope to finish it up next week.

High spots in the lines are good places for bubbles to hide. High spots should be at each end. If you have a T for a brakelight pressure switch, the switch should be facing down so that it doesn't trap air.

Just some observations from past headaches.......

Never done brake line clean slate before. Thanks for the heads up.

Did a little wiring today. It's a good way to pass time! Visual progress is slow, but I'm trying to be really thorough in mapping things out, checking continuity, and documenting...

That is looking nice! Wanna come do mine? I'm dreading wiring.

I don't hate it when I get into it & it's a very good way to be OCD but it just takes FOREVER to do it cleanly & document all!

That intercom is way too old-school. PM me so we can upgrade you into something modern with some cool features... use and abuse your friendships!

Hi Steve,

Amazon is the best place to get it. About 10-15 bucks less than what I paid at Grainger (needed it same day....)

https://www.amazon.com/DYMO-Industrial- ... dymo+18053

PM'ed on the intercom

Eric, I am very impressed with your wiring. This is the first time I have discovered the Dymo. My projects are so time limited my marking is way crude. While you an I would disagree on many wiring tools and connections. Your result is way better than mine. Be proud on your very professional result.
