Small Parts Organization

June 8, 2018 by Tim Harman No Comments
small parts bin from harbor freight

I collect small parts.  Nuts, bolts, screws, washers, nails, bushings, fasteners, fittings, plastic odds and ends, you name it – chances are I’ve got something like it.  But why?  Why keep that little protective plastic cover that came on that tube of epoxy I just bought??

Growing up, we had a neighbor, Bob.  Bob was a war vet.  Not just a war vet, but a POW vet.  During WWII his plane collided with another American plane killing all but Bob and one other Army Air Corpsman.  He was captured by the Nazis and went on to spend 18 months in Stalag 17B as a POW.  Bob was a consummate American bad-ass serving in WWII, Korea, and Nam before retiring in 1973.  Sadly, we lost Bob in 2004, but his legacy lives on.

Heavy duty steel garage cabinets

May 30, 2018 by Tim Harman No Comments
Husky garage cabinets

I just installed some new heavy-duty steel garage cabinets that I got at Home Depot.  My old garage cabinets were worn, tired, and didn’t match my black tool cabinet and lockers.  They were really more suited as cheap cabinets for a laundry room.  The humidity fluctuations in my garage caused the shelving to warp slightly.  No bueno.  I needed something strong that would last the test of time.

Instagram post 2192194543228025101_7201860996 We took last week off to celebrate Thanksgiving (so no episode this week), but we’ll be dropping a NEW EPISODE for you next week!

In the meantime, enjoy this photo that @timharmanphoto took, years ago, in his own front yard! You’ve probably seen this perfect fall photo before, as it has been “borrowed” by nearly the entire internet!

Instagram post 2186628546924237758_7201860996 This week we heard from special guest, @brandon_funk .  He has worked in the Atlanta film industry (aka Y'allywood) for 10+ years. Brandon shared his wide range of experience from set design and build to special request props. If you're even remotely interested in film, you'll definitely want to take a listen.

Brandon wrapped up the show with a very kind presentation of personalized gifts for each of the YCM hosts! What did he get for each of us? Tune in to find out!

Brandon also made mention of the gym in #Kennesaw (suburb of Atlanta) that his wife operates, Trinity Fitness @tfnorthcobb . If you're in the area then check it out!

Instagram post 2181463272369448751_7201860996 Is your mower ready for winter hibernation?  On this week's show we discussed things you need to do to get your mower ready for its long winter's nap.  We also discussed a few things you can do to winterize around the house.

Tim wrapped up this week's show with some You can, man. Trivia - Winter Weather edition!

Instagram post 2176960479608891061_7201860996 Being a parent is one of life's greatest joys. It's also one of life's greatest adjustments from the way things used to be, pre-kids. On this week's podcast, we talked through some first time dad stuff that every expectant dad should be thinking about. Though no where near exhaustive, we hope our feedback gave you new dads or dads-to-be some encouragement, while offering a trip down memory lane for others.

Josh wrapped up the show with his segment: Roll Call. Who knew that coyotes used to only be prevalent west of the Mississippi??

Dave wrapped up the show with an installment of You can, man. TRIVIA!  Halloween edition!  How well do you you know halloween?

Instagram post 2161194509002907937_7201860996 On this week’s episode... we talkin’ about TOILETS, man. Nearly all toilet troubles can be fixed by anyone who would put themselves at at least a 3/10 on the DIY scale! Most parts for toilets are very inexpensive and repair instructions are readily available online.

Tim wrapped up the show with his segment on the demise of the Passenger Pigeon. Numbering in the billions, it was once the most abundant bird in North America! Imagine a flock of birds SO LARGE that it blotted out the sun and took HOURS to pass overhead! Nightmare material... just in time for Halloween.

Instagram post 2155998597389693994_7201860996 On this week’s episode, the guys talked about their favorite cars… some of their picks were dream cars, some were very practical, and some were simply nostalgic. They also discussed some fun finds on @bringatrailer , an auction website that features vintage, classic, and ultra-rare vehicles. Be careful, you can easily lose yourself for hours on BaT!

Josh closed out the show with a riveting segment on submarine communication cables and the critical role they play in our daily lives!
