Got up this morning with several goals in mind. Haircut, 1/2 ton of coal, a stop at the steel supplier and shop time this afternoon. At the barber shop at 8,Barber shop doesn't open till 10am. Maybe next week.... Head to city coal yard, gotta call ahead to make sure he'll be there. No loader so I shovel 1/2 a ton on to the truck with a scoop shovel. Been trying to lose weight anyway.
1/2 a ton of coal $163.00.
Get home shovel the coal into the coal bin and 4 - 30 gal. trash cans. At least it's alot cheaper by the pickup load.
Wind is blowing a little so the leaves are blowing into the shop and catching under everything. So I rake the leaves outside both shop doors and burn them. At least it's not snow,
Go take lunch and run to the steel supplier.
100' of 3/8" HRRS - $30.10
300' of 1/4" HRRS - $41.50
100' of 1/2" HRRS - $43.00
8" drop of 2-1/8" 4140 round stock $16.00 yes that is 8"
10" drop of 1018 - $6.15

Guess I better quit goofing off and get some work done.
