I think Jon has been sniffing the mold release. Hmmm, he seems to be coming up with some good excuses on his delays. :Brow: I think I am going to start writing these down so when he starts working on his Skylark convertible and asks me for help, I am going to recite them to him. :grin: Oh, almost forgot, Jon, helps to drink the 12 pack after you do some real work not before!:beer
LOL, well maybe its Light beer, less filling ya know, save some room to sniff the release. Just Kiddin. George your right those are some good excuses, I'm gonna write em down too, so when I run into trouble(constantly:af: ) I can just use one!
The dog ate my mold! Locusts! Wild Fires!!!! CATS AND DOGS LIVING TOGETHER IN HARMONY!!!!! :moonu: :laugh: 2 weeks.... I have been making a grill in two weeks... man you guys are impatient! p If I didn't have to spend so much time proof reading my posts for George...... LOCUSTS!!! WILDFIRES!!! -Jon
Ok, enough of Jon's BS, I am going to start baggin it and selling it for fertilizer. Hmmm, I think I am going to visit Jon and take some pics of this "hoax" he has going on. Will post pics here late Saturday.:Brow: I think I will offer my air chisel to break???:eek2: that grill from the mold he supposedly has made??????o No: Oh, yes, won't forget to bring a 12 pack to celebrate this "hoax" conclusion, one way or the other!:beer
Well, arent you just the man of many talents George.... fertilizer recylcer. Good career choice! :laugh: Your welcome to stop by, but I will most likely to put you to work if you do, so pack a lunch. Heres a pic of my fictitious grill mold. Notice, I am making some progress in removing the mold form the mesh. I will SO use more release agent next time. This is a total pain! -Jon
Wow, looks like you have a 70-2 Buick behind that grill!:grin: I think you should sell it to me for $1000 so you can put some more money towards your "hoax" grill project. :laugh:
Jon, Did your "mold expert" tell you to try a hair dryer to release the master? Mild heat to soften the mold. Hmmmmmmmmm? Be very, very patient!!! Especially with George! Good Luck!!
Hey Bill, heat does not effect this material. I did soak it in hot water to try and remove some of the release agent(water soluable). That helped. The rest of it is just pulling at the mold, and cutting the material away from the grill. Its very aggrivating, but its taking the abuse! Strong stuff! Flexible to 360 degrees too. It will come out... just taking time. When I pour the grill though, it will get SOAKED in release agent before. -Jon George is just a bitter old man....... no need for patience.... just pitty....:laugh:
I do have to say this is one of the highlights of my day seeing whats going on next in this "project". But what does that say for me?o No: Oh well, whatchya gonna do in college but drink beer and waste time. :beer -Josh
Jon does not need to use a hair dryer or heat gun because Jon is full of hot air!:af: What Jon needs is a supervisor! I am going to offer my services for FREE !:laugh: I already have my supervisor equipment together: 48qt cooler, 2 cases of beer, beach chair, sunglasses, sun block (gonna be another scorcher here on Sat), portable fan. The automotive master must teach lil grasshopper the proper technique on mold creation, mold release application, new part removal, quality control, salesmanship and customer service. If you ever meet this guy in person, you will understand what I mean!:beer Ok, let's stop wasting Jon's time reading these posts so he can work on finishing the 12 pack he just started!:TU:
If we keep this up, Jon just may quit on us! NOT!ou: I will see if I can get some pics on Sat. I am heading his way and will do some covert operations to actually catch this guy working! I have heard some stories but no one has actually seen this guy do any kind of work.:Smarty: Rumor has it he has never put the top up on his 71 Skylark conv because he can't figure out how to operate the top!:laugh: I tried to get Jon to buy a 455 from a 73 Electra but he didn't want to get his "office hands" dirty!:Brow: Ok, I have to stop now or I am really going to get Jon mad!:spank:
Wow, a lot of activity on this thread today! Its ashame that George has no life and has to live vicariously through mine. Being that he is such the mold master, its a wonder he hasn't done this project himself already??? Talk about hot air..... gonna need a wind breaker on Sat if he stops by..... o No: I think George would be a great supervisor...... you know, the guy that orders everyone around but actually does NO real work, and takes all the credit for your sweat and tears? Your the man for that one. Gosh, we sound like an old married couple???? Hold me...... :laugh: -Jon P.S. I didn't buy the 455, cause it wouldn't go with the rest of the decor in my future sons room. Hes due on June 29th.... :beer
Congratulations :beer ...parenthood will make you think this grille separation task is really easy... :bglasses:
Thanks! I am looking forward to it. I know wy wife is. I hope the babies mine. :laugh: We decorated his room in cars..... go figure! Gave him a welder and a paint gun to play with in the crib. Gotta get him comfortable using these tools. uzzled:
Ok, I have to admit, I don't think Jon has any idea what he is doing. I think he is very good at drinking beer. So, when I got there, I decided to take a pic. Here is what I found. I thought the only work he ever does is to kill 12 packs. Well, from the looks of the empty beer bottles, Jon has been working very, very hard!:beer Hmmmm, I would not be holding your breath waiting for him to finish this grill project. :eek2: I don't think he got much done today! :Brow:
Well, since I made the drive to his place, about an 1 hr each way. I figured I might as well get some parts for my efforts. Wow, I don't think Jon will notice anything missing. He had his beer googles on so we will see what happens!:beer
