entre-manure : hand wavey bullshit from people running a company with no clue.

@sendcutsend dont show this to superfast matt. you'll be backordered for months

spotted in the shop: wave bends wave bending is a popular design technique for hand bending sheet metal parts

@ShannonJean B. A hasn't done anything with the space ...unless its been cleaned out for an epoxy floor and a full garage build. Then both.

I have a theory. You're looking for a business partner. You have it narrowed down to 2 people. You get to visit their homes. Are you choosing the person with Garage A or Garage B? Why?

@TractorNinja about 3 acres. There's a house in the way though

Whats your biggest field?

tool places : LOOK AT THIS AMAZEBALLS WORKBENCH me : oooo yea that is nice. OH and the price isn't terrible ..... ......wait.... freight shipping only ($500+) requires commercial address requires a doc (+350 lift gate fee) arrives in 2-6 months Literally everything I do not have. Who buys these??

@themoviedadsc where are you flying out of? when is your departure? is there another adult that can drive? can you split it up? Do you already have a vehicle that's perfect for this trip? I flew out of DEN and it was ...boring. Maybe a 5 minute line for precheck, main lines were 7-12.

Legitimately now considering driving 14.5 hours to Ft. Lauderdale this coming weekend vs. flying. Drive is brutal, but my worst nightmare is getting caught in this TSA mess flying with 3 young kids Question to those who've been flying. Is it really that bad right now?

you dont need a super car to have awesome wheels. This isnt even perfection, and thats completely okay! (135k miles, daily driven, and on dirt roads)

excellence isnt a hobby, its a standard. Doesn't matter what make, what model - its the attention, and the obsession.

@bscholl someone no one would elect, per usual

We need a bipartisan Congressional campaign to balance the budget. Right now no one wants to cut only their pork. We need everyone to opt in for the pain together. I’d support any pol who signs on to cut across the board. Who will stand up and lead this in the midterms?

after

before...

@timwingfield And also hail no, I don't own a tesla.

@timwingfield its cloudy as hail

@mecum can you tell the auctioneer to STOP TALKING OVER the person introducing the car? It's always this guy and it's amazingly unprofessional.

@Motorsport the monsoon of @Mid_Ohio. @FalkenTire won because all the prototypes turned into boats. The announcers were losing their mind. It was fantastic. The 007 flying further than the Wright Brothers first flight is a close 2nd. Same track.

What moment made you a racing fan for life?

@ohhyoubetcha @NorthernTool I feel personally attacked

Car guys are built different @NorthernTool

@bscholl so...an actual watch?

I would pay extra for an Apple Watch with fewer buttons. Never made sense to me that it had the crown and that other button. iPhone now also has too many buttons.

oh you mean like when we learned ATL's power circuits feeding the airport were right next to each other in a small tunnel... and that was amazingly dumb? Yea, like that? (I lived in Atlanta at the time when this happened, and I showed up right when a ground stop was issued. Good times, lawsuits, yeaaaaa)

Yes, we should expect more of this. But. @DENAirport where was the backup power? Where were the continuity of operations plans? Generators? Backup power? You didn't build alternative methods of getting from terminal to concourses, and now it appears you don't have power backup? The FAA tower had backup? Why not you?

. @BenchmadeKnives eversharp program is a lie. I sent mine. And I admit, I might have hit a live wire with it (end is blue from the arc, long story) and it was dull. A feat for M4 tool steel. I use it all the time. Fine. I pay the 10 bucks, put it in a bag. And wait. Benchmade aint buying it. "yea thats cute, we made it sharp now. OH, and we also replaced the broken bit in the handle, and a couple other things" ...this is probably the PG version. Probably. And ship it back. 0_o .... they didn't sharpen it, eversharp is a lie... it's good as new. Maybe better. evergood? eversolid? Whatever. Lies. I'm glad I have 3. And the newest is 8 years old (and I use it daily)

@oreillyauto and nor do they consider the bank account MIGHT be the same account. numbers be damned.

If I'm not working on my project car but still looking for another project car on Facebook marketplace just know I have two completely separate brains, and they don't communicate.
