Installed new LED lights on the trailer, and new LED cab clearance markers on the truck.


Annnnddd... Discovered that shorts, bare skin, and a still hot heat gun really DO NOT play well together!

I was using the heat gun to heat shrink the connections on the trailer wiring. Finished up the driver's side then moved everything to the passenger side. Sat down on the floor of the shed to start working on the rear light and my heel caught the cord on the heat gun and pulled it under the back of my knee as I sat down. I now have a pretty ugly 2nd degree burn on the inside of my right knee, about the size of a half dollar, maybe a little bigger. Hurts like a SOB but, on the plus side, it sorta evens out my limp from the bad left knee.

Why buy new when you can restore?

Drove the truck to a movie last night and then home. (not Transformers 3)

Changed oil on the motorcycle. I'm embarrassed how long of a change interval (not miles, but months) and how little I got back out. :facepalm: But now it has 3qts of 20w50 back in it and is as happy as can be! :thumbs:
