  1. The .50 is easy to deal with other than the effort required on the handle for some brass. The normally acceptable variation in powder from one to the next is enough to make 100 of the .25s.
  2. "If you can catch me, you can have me?"
  3. How can you tell? Her arms are in the way.
  4. Go take a shit. Also, congratulations.
  5. Dillon is located here, and I've seen what he drives and the huge million dollar shooting events he hosts in the desert. This informed me of where my money would go so I bought Lee and Hornady.
  6. Didn't see any legit user accounts there, and I'm so fucking tired of seeing thousands of attack notifications.
  7. Beautiful, reliable, very useful motorcycles that manage to be boring as fuck to ride.
  8. Is that your Professional opinion? Is this place going to be ready as a drinking and smoking lounge for NeXXt in case it gets cold?
  9. That's hot. My favorite paint job on the Hurricane, which clearly was the predecessor to the XX.
  10. Exactly, and why I wanted to know about "throttle left" and the module used. I put one of the common ones on the China bike, and realized that if calibrated at low speed it didn't stay really linear. Though I never got it up to 180 to find out what happens there.
  11. Epoxy is the only thing I know, and yes. Though really harsh stuff like acetone and MEK can take the shine off.
  12. I spilled a little Trim Serum on my driveway, and it's waterproof where it landed.
  13. My 186 on flat ground had a 20-30 MPH tail wind.
  14. "Still had throttle left." Does this mean you hit the rev limiter at full throttle? What device did you use to calibrate the speedo? Some of them don't remain linear, I've learned.
  15. Sure, but which tool is she still using today? And which tool are you using?
  16. Epoxy with a texture. I'm not aware of something cheaper. But the texture is critical, the untextured is a death trap with any fluids, even just water.
  17. Useless in the days of battery drivers. Useful in the 60s though.
  18. A potentially malicious file was found this morning in a scan, but it's in an unused skin file so there's zero evidence it ever had any effect. I'm updating the AV and kernel protection packages at some point today, which will require downtime. I suspect that the most it will take is about an hour with less than 15 minutes outage time.
  19. But tell him so he stops recommending them.
  20. Yeah, it's learning experience for sure. I've been through the gamut of collection systems, talked to great experts, and been refining this for over 20 years. Then there's the difference between air quantity and vacuum pressure; or both. The squirrel moves lots of air but gets no vacuum, and can be damaged by it even. The shop vac gets low volume but high pressure (why you need it for ROS and router). The big vane type get lots of quantity AND a bit of pressure, plus they can run "dry" as long as you want. Which is good, since you don't want to stop/start motors a lot, so you leave it running as you move between tools. So much shit to learn. I added this custom overhead to the TS, and still get shit flying off. And of course the 4" to the cabinet itself.
  21. I assure you, a squirrel cage will not work. This is a common question on woodworking forums and the answer is a hearty no. The HF floor blower might be better. Every noobie has a line on a cheap AC blower, and no, nice try. One of the hardest tools to control dust on. I've made a bunch of mods to try, the 3HP can't move enough air for it. People who are serious about DC go to 5HP. Since I have the door open 100% of the time, I settle for what I have. And the TS is at the door shooting most crap outward.
  22. I may still have some, and hate those compared to the lever. Are you saying they are worth money for being old?
  23. Well, that's kinda what I have, but a squirrel cage won't move enough nor support any vacuum. I have a 3HP motor on a 12" vane style fan (great deal at a used commercial store). It's just enough to reliably move air from 5" backhaul ducts, and 4"/2.5" tool drops. I have the very large version of the cyclone to capture most things, but no filters. Just vents out. And really, very little gets out. Oneida cyclones are efficient as hell. There's an RF remote relay for the motor and two remotes in strategic locations for easy reach. Every tool has a manual gate to close airflow. The dustbin has a generic distance/level sensor wired to a pair of LEDs in the shop, so it goes from green to flashing bright red when the bin is about 10" from full. $30 to build. Oneida sells one for $175. Mine is better.
