  • Excavator & Optiplex

    Posted on December 12th, 2008 cwmoore No comments

    I spent most of the day working on the Dell Optiplex 2.7.  I found out that the Dell Service Number does not match to one on the case.  I guess this is no surprise since I bought it off eBay. The other ones I purchase off eBay did have the correct service numbers though.  It is slowing down with all the services I am adding.  Still it is faster than anything else I have.

    The excavator came to find the septic tank #1 that has been lost for 25 years.  When we checked it we found the water was flowing through with no apparent restrictions.  Thsi si good.  While he was here we did accurate measurements and found the #1 clean out that was near the house.  He is putting extensions and risers so all will be accessible from now on.

    After lunch I applied the third coat of Cetol to the Young Sun sailboat boom gallows.  It is a very pretty piece of Teak.  Now it looks great.  The final coat is clear coat but I may put two coats on because it gets plenty of abuse from weather.
