That's an Audi though, with a max torque spec of approximately 12ft/lbs across the whole car... :DQuote:

The real question on the electric impact is. Can they use the same charging station they do for their car.Quote:

But I sometimes see/hear things differently.
Have to ask... anyone ever see or hear from DSBoutdoors? I understand he hasn't really been around for a few years but even without him posting, he had a presence in near everyone's profile. After the host server changed, so did his avatar & I noticed. Just curious.
Two weeks since Ive seen a squirrel in my tree... noticed that too.

Just finished a 4 mile run, enjoying the infrared sauna now!
Yay saunas!
I looked at a house in Tucson last week.
It had a sauna.
Weird.
Saunas are great, and if anyone is looking for a new gym, I HIGHLY recommend Chuze, I've been here for about 2 months now, after a few years at 24hr, and this place is awesome (that's coming from someone that spent about 5 years going to Lifetime fitness).
Hopefully I'll be looking at houses in Tucson in 6 months or so, Rancho Sahuarita to be specific.
Even weirder is the landscape companies advertising . When in the valley we heard 2 on the radio letting people know it's never too early to winterize your sprinkler or drip system. Or cover your trees as temps can get down to the mid 40'sQuote:

Yeah yeah, maybe a little...
Speaking of non sequiturs...Did they pour it?
Did i miss an update?
Yes, I've been hearing from vendors and friends that a lot of shops are primarily electric for about a year or two now. We have to have the air for the lifts for sure, and we still use Nitro Cat impacts for wheels and most heavier work, spring work and shit like that. All of us have and use electric screw guns and 3/8ths impacts for everything else.Quote:

The batteries are strong when new, but weaken rapidly on heavier jobs over time....and they are stupid expensive to replace more often than not...at least in my experience.
Awesome...I hope she enjoys the visit and the area while she's there.Quote:

Well, I do, and I also have several tools that use the same battery size. If two of them drop out on the same day, I can't use one of 'em until the next day unless I steal a battery from another and so on. I don't want to spend the money for six batteries and three chargers. Sucks if more than one cycles weak or stops taking a charge at the same time...$.Quote:

Guys at shops likely aren't buying multiple tools that come with batteries and chargers like me either.
There are no chargers like you Irving.
Yup, they're all soft chargers.Quote:

Then Home Depot didn't have that toilet paper stand, so I thought of another solution. The Christmas party is tomorrow night. This is a test to see how much she loses her shit when she sees it. Obviously I'll tell her that I saw it on Pintrest. Snicker.

I'm sure Bed, Bath, and Beyond has what I was thinking of, so I'll just grab one tomorrow on another store trip.

Awesome license plate. Terrible pic. Sorry
Detain Nate.
Hahahahha
I tried to suppress a chuckle at that TP dispenser (so as not to wake the wife), but that only triggered a coughing fit that did wake her. I guess you could count that as a win.
Detonate?Quote:
