Black Friday Shopping



 So I waited around for this weekend to take advantage of the Black Friday deals at Harbor Freight.  Combining the sales and my 10% off my purchase I was able to save over $120 on my 1,000 tool purchase.  I got some safety gear, my compressor, other air tools, and some other odds and ends.  My DRDT2 also arrived and I have to finish setting up the tables for it. That’s where my workshop stands for now, until my Synergy class next week.  After class I will setup the tool box and organize things, I honestly have no clue what some of these items do, so this class should be enlightening.


In other news, my flight training continues. I had my oral exam for my instrument rating this morning.  It went quite well and I was successful in completing that. Unfortunately for my, I had to take a discontinuance due to high winds and low ceilings.  Trying to fly a checkride in 32 knot gusts is not my idea of a fun time.  We will reconvene for the flight portion after I get back from Atlanta, hopefully with some nicer weather and calmer winds.
