138 Drywall

138 Drywall

Drywall, Gypsum Board, Wallboard, Plasterboard… No matter what you call it, it is still awful.
It is certainly better than the previous Lath and Plaster method, but it still takes the fun level of constructing something down a few notches…

Its good to have clamps, the 6” Quick-Grip Mini’s are super and duper.

91 Deck

Last summer, just before all the festivities, we built a deck… (ok, 3 decks)
I opted to try the Dek-Block Pier Floating Foundation Deck System, since I was running out of time and energy, and could not bear to dig any more holes.
I wasn’t sure about a floating deck when the ground moves so much in the winter here, but fortunately it looks as good as it did last summer..

88 Save-tek

88 Save-tek

Well I am pleased to announce that the Sovtek is kicking again..
This overhaul has been way over due.. It’s probably been 10 years since some of those knobs have been working (though it has always sounded pretty good)…
I really don’t ever remember it being this loud though…

86 Russian Attack

86 Russian Attack

Today’s project was to replace all the potentiometers and jacks on my Russian built Sovtek Mig-50.
Wow, what an undertaking, still not done, but I will not let it beat me…
I now understand why amp repair is so expensive..
