What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

Also pinned the legs back on a plastic crow ornament.

I know....WTF?
 
I spent about four hours today, over at the Mather VA hospital for the skin doctor in removing a skin cancer, on the top of my left hand.
Didn't know how this was going to be done on me, and now i have a hole in my hand the size of a penny that now needs to heal up.
And she needs to do another problem on the top of my nose in two weeks, that now have been told to expect to be in the hospital all day for this surgery.
Not looking forward to this next one at all.
Any others out there in B body land have skin issues?

Yup....have about 5 cuttings now mostly on my face. 1 cutting on each side of my nose. Maybe it's 6 now. No hospital stays yet.
 
Blast cabinet up and running roday, works pretty good at 75 psi and 1/4” nozzle. I used an electric solenoid air valve connected to a foot pedal so gun is very compact and no trigger.
I guess blasting these parts qualifies as working on the car, so wrong thread?

Still grinding, filing, and sanding on the Edelbrock 440 Torker II I bought a few weeks ago.

All the external logos are gone and the runner tops smoothed out. Also removed the 4 machining pads and did a little work in the plenum.

I am probably 15 hours into it so far, but it's been a good winter night project.

Next up is to remove all the coil bracket castings and smooth it out.
