I drove through a bit of snow on the way to work this evening
(Not on the ground just floating around in the air)
#scottsdalesnowmageddon

What am I supposed to learn from that?

It was 50 to 55 F that last few days. Melted most of the snow.

In the 20s all day today.

:eek:

I looked at bikes on CraigsList for the first time in an entire week today. I realized I had no interest in any of them. Maybe I shoulda bought the Litespeed FIRST?

wut

It was 71 here this afternoon. It’s now about 45 and dropping.

Temps were in the mid-20s all day in this part of the sun belt.

Makita has always made fine products, afaik. I have a Makita 7.2v drill that is about 30 years old and has been abused and still works.
I never bought any electric impact tools because I had air tools and I was old and cheap. Most of the guys who had them bought Snap On or Matco and some of them had DeWalt drills.
The work I did I used 3/8 drive for most power tool stuff. I had a crappy 1/2 drive impact so if I needed big power I would borrow a monster I-R from someone.
One of the guys used his 3/8 Matco electric for wheel nuts. I wondered if that was a good idea.

One of the brake guys got tendonitis in his elbows from using a huge impact gun. Big guy, 6'4", 250 lbs, but using the impact all day. It got so bad he had to take months off, PT, the works. The doctor told him to get a lightweight titanium impact wrench.

Wintery weekend ahead, but nothing that dumb. :foo:

A home just isn't a home without a sword.

I used to have a few of their calendars from the 80s and 90s. I'd probably get in trouble for sharing pics of them here :)

Here's a link to a video that always reminded me of one of those calendars come to life

Danger, NSFW

Hahahahaha, fake laugh to hide real tears.

I used to level up and sell characters in MMOs when I was a dumb kid. So, maybe?

I’ve been thinking about ditching the Garmin pedals and going to a crank based power solution. This would allow me to have some egg beaters or SPD for nasty gravel w/ mud and road pedals. Or I could just deal with mud in the cleats.

Also pretty sure I’m coming off of the waitlist for Rasputitsa up in the NE Kingdom of VT this spring- it’s supposed to be nasty. I’m sure there will be a crash or two.

I've heard 0 is no bueno. :innocent:. Feel better

Doing it right!

Ikr? I happy if the sheet stay on.

more power = more better! Milwaukee is my preference. Find something that the batteries are interchangeable. That way you can get a gang charger trickle charger. If you end up with 5 fifteenth battery types it's a pain.

If I recall correctly they are wired similar to a 3 phase circuit but have a circuit that performs a lot of switching. You can ( or at least used to ) tell a brushless from a standard motor apart by the clogging if you rotate it by hand, due to the super strong neodium magnets. R/c airplanes use them and had a lot to do with their development, but I've kinda deleted a lot of that knowledge since I gave up that hobby.
