[RBW] Re: Cheese
It'll be some time before that authority ages to ripeness here. We have a handful of actual cheese mongers in various wholesale/retail ethnic food distributors in a part of town named by its description as the strip of land between the Hill and the Allegheny River. There in the Strip District I find all sorts of great foods, fresh authentic and unbelievably affordable without the grocery brand distribution complexity and mark up. Another's write up: http://brainsplatterkeyboard.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/my-kind-of-strip-joint/ That lady can pick a cheese and can knock a half ounce sample from one those wedges with her 24 cheese knife.

Sad to say, as much as I love cheese, I have very limited experience with the really good stuff. One of the higher-end local grocers was giving out samples and I tried a bit and it was heavenly.

Re: [RBW] Re: Chain Saw Bar Oil
The best way I have found to deliver a heavy oil is thus: Clean the chain off with 99% rubbing alcohol. Saturate the chain with WD-40 and wipe it off. Re-apply until the WD-40 coming off is completely clean. Spray the chain again with WD-40 and then drip a single drop of the heavy oil into each pivot. The WD-40 provides a film that allows the heavy oil to slip right in. Now wipe the chain off until the outside is completely dry. You now have all the oil where it is needed, and none where it will attract dirt.

[RBW] Re: Zefal HP pump question
Adding a little to what Deacon said. 1. If it's OLD, like from the late 80s or earlier, it is not convertible. You'll unscrew the cap and a rubber thingy will come out, along with a spring, and maybe a flat washer, and get confused. Too bad. Put it back in and get a presta valve adapter if you want to use that pump. 2. If it's newer than that, Deacon is right. Under the cap you will find a rubber part on top of a plastic part. Remove them BOTH, invert EACH and put them back in, plastic part first, rubber piece on top of that, then screw cap, and Robert is your father's brother On Saturday, June 14, 2014 9:03:08 AM UTC-7, Deacon Patrick wrote: If it's anything like the HPx, just unscrew the valve, flip the rubber and hard plastic dealie-boppers around to fit Presta and presto!

[RBW] Re: Chain Saw Bar Oil
Canola oil sounds interesting :) The heaviest veg oil I know of is Castor oil, man, that stuff is viscous ! Isn't that the origin of the name Castrol ? :) Can you just use the factory lube of a new chain and apply it over that when necessary ? I don't prefer to clean chains at all any more, as I find all the good degreasers are either diesel, kerosene or wd-40. Kinda yuk. The Soy cleaner that Riv sold I found poor. I had tried some citrus degreasers in the past and none of them worked either.
