You should do QC on piping at a power plant during construction. :eek: I found control valves and check valves installed and welded in backwards. And this was after the welds was heat treated. :eek: :mad: I wasn't QC there. I was just walking down the different systems and learning where everything was at and the flow paths. It was part of my training to operate the plant.

I still have my full system setup in the TV room but I won’t be replacing any of it if it ***** the bed.

How do you like the soundbar? I gave away my old AV receiver a year ago and havent felt the need to replace it. I was looking for a simple setup that saved some space vs. 4ft tower speakers in the room.

Think I'm done buying hand tools. Got everything I need almost. If I need something while doing a project. I'll get it.

I want a bigger air compressor. Have a 60 gallon now. But I could use a 120 gallon with a higher pressure shut off. Also want a Lincoln Precision TIG 225 Welder with the water cooler for the tig torch. A plasma cutter would be nice too. :yum: Press brake for bending sheet metal. A shear for cutting sheet metal. Tubing bender. A lift. AND a bigger garage for putting all of this in. :rofl2:

All ready have a Lincoln Pro Mig 180, and a Lincoln AC/DC stick welder.

I like it. I recommend one with a sub because without it deep voices don’t come thru properly. It also nice cuz I can turn the voice channel up. I didn’t go crazy since I’d never run one before. I just bought a Polk Audio one for $300.

Jeezus JAR, I haven't been on this board in two years, and the first post I read is you STILL bitching about not being able to cut the grass because of the rain? LOL! :icon17:

Good to catch-up on my reading here every once in a while.

Fingers crossed on a possible Z35 in the near future.

Hope all is well up in Austin. Need to get up there soon and see you and Pint. My days in Texas are numbered. Bought a house in St. Augustine, FL but hanging out in Houston for another year.

Got to call state police this morning while on the interstate since some new Jersey 18 wheeler with an unbalanced load was constantly crossing over the middle line almost causing a few accidents. 3 troopers flew up behind me about 10 minutes after I made the call and had him pulled over after about 5 minutes of a light show happening.
