I remember back when I was first married, I pulled the head off of truck with a 390 and lapped in a new valve on the coffe table while watching TV.    I was living in an apartment at the time and no garage.

A 390 head wasn't so heavy but the cast iron intake manifold weighed 85 lbs.

my fun for the day is going to be welding up the frame on my wheelhorse tractor.

saul..... how did the rewound coil work out?

kev.... the bright side, (if you can call it bright), is that at least you got it back home to futz with it.  had (have) a caravan that would not idle, took a computer reflash at the dealer to finally fix it, after i went through every sensor on that p.o.s.

like the kitchen table mechanics!  once lodged a valvespring into the ceiling when a home-made spring compressor slipped off.  always have had bad experiences with springs, whether coil or leaf.  lots of energy in those things.

In the winter I rebuild carbs on tv tray while watching sports and staying warm. Also rebuilt many saws in winter on the kitchen table.   

On the parts washer, cough cough I can only use it when the boss is gone. Dishwasher.    Same on the oven for crankcases.   ;D ;D

Valve spring in the ceiling.    That is a crack up.
