It will be really interesting to see how things change once all is said and done. How may current practices will remain even after things go back to "normal". The internet is full of doom and gloom but honestly, despite the hit to the economy, most people I run into seem far more relaxed, even...

So what was the question?

Close up your gap to .024 as well.

Don't shoe horn all electricians into just wiring houses either. It's a very broad field with no limits other than your own ambition. I started out wiring houses, moved on to industrial maintenance and eventually automation and controls. I've built power lines and sub-stations, worked in open...

Then push harder with a bit of a twist at the same time. I dry fit all my wires first and mark for proper depth to ensure full engagement. I don't use MSD wires but some of the other brands need the hole for the spike made with a different tool prior to insertion. The cut up one would be a good...

I was gonna say, 8.5mm into a 7mm hole is usually an impossible task but I see you removed the entire side of the coil rather than drilling it out. In that case, you may as well toss it in the bin unless you can find an epoxy rated at 25,000 volts. If I so much as crack the side while drilling...

That makes sense. How much width can you handle on your trails? Single place jetski trailers are only something like 42" wide and would stand up much better than a modded beach cart, plus they usually have winches to aid with retrieval. They can be picked up around here for a couple hundred...

Why does it have to be a special trailer?

Same with Florida too I guess.

I wonder how much weather is playing a roll in all this? Most viruses are heat sensitive so it makes sense that northern places, still in the throws of winter and cooler temps, are getting hit harder. Us Southern folk may be getting some assistance to our resistance. [emoji16]

No, you do not need to remove the 100K resistor.

More likely that it was far more widespread than thought, prior to us having any testing to know, or taking any actions. I still say that the Type A flu that 3 of my co-workers had right after Christmas, was in fact the Corona. Same with the bug that went around Daytona.

I built it when I was working a very boring and unrewarding 40hr/week job in a CNC environment. Now that I'm working 80hrs/week for months at a time, I forget too many little details that it makes using it a struggle. I keep a journal with specific notes for each setup that really helps but...

I updated the above post with details

You will not regret the investment of the machine alone. How far you take the modifications is up for debate. Some days I wish I had left it stock, others I wish I had invested in a better machine. Grizzly G0704 with the following mods: - Ballscrew kit on all axis. - 520oz stepper motors on...

I only use my bandsaws for things I can't jig into one of my other saws. Tubing, conduit, angle, channel and flat bar gets cut up in the miter saw with a carbide blade. Bigger stuff, or anything steel, goes in the Metal chopsaw with the big abrasive wheel. Sheets get cut with a Skilsaw. I work...

We tried a three point Eeros mesh system in our current home when we first moved in and never could get it to work right. We have quite a bit of square footage, a second story so we thought it would be perfect. Tech support said we had them too close together and our floorplan was just too open...

Everybody around me getting laid off but I’m working more than ever. I’m scheduled to work 6 days this week and next. I put in 15 hrs yesterday and 14 today fixing issues with equipment because our vendors all had to head back home. I’m about ready to blow my Corona screening test at the...

I shipped off a bag of the blank grommets to Jetmaniac and plan to keep him stocked up going forward. If anyone has any new or minty condition OEM blanks, I would be very interested in making a deal for 4 or 5 so I have some nice clean blanks for making future molds. The molds pick up every...

That's cute, lol. The females have tiny little tails.
