Ive had great luck with my ryobi crap*

*crap meaning step above harbor freight tools

My batteries have been fine, but they are 2+ years old. I only need to replace my regular drill due to I submerged it into used Motor oil.... so it acts slow and smells funny..... don’t ask how #beergearoilchange

 

This week is not going well but here’s to coping. The glass is always half full right?

 

I am stuck in Utah right now drinking tap IPA from Wasatch.

 

I had a workhorse cordless Ryobi drill for years that I loved, batteries died of old age ("Get off my lawn!!"). I've had 2 of 4 "new" Ryobi batteries fail within the first year of ownership. I'm a Makita guy now (my chinese shit is better than your chinese shit) I haven't tried the "submerge in motor oil / beer" mod, so maybe that's the answer.

 

I can’t use a welder to save my life but here’s a fun project to share from a few years ago. Step one, pick up a shit load of wood.

 

Step two, (actually it was step one) design in CAD with a bunch of dimensions so I don’t have to think later.

 

Step three build it.

 

Step 4.

 

It’s called seasoning the drill, I think you do the same thing to cast iron shit

 

My wife said there was hail about and first look of these pictures I thought the children got decimated.... but it’s stars n shit cut out

 

Lol, yeah I just got busy with a jig saw...

 

”busy”....
My wife had some friends move into town and I’m supposed to get the husband to tag along with crafts n shit to teach.... I can’t see this going well

 

Question for the youngsters..... what is this?

Just going through my truck tool box, and no idea why I have these. Must have been leftovers for when I dated a girl with an old volvo

 

You’re gonna teach crafts? WTF?

 

Like how to fix minor plumbing, dry wall stuff, general mechanics, etc, etc

 

Oh yeah, I got ya. Show that guy the ropes. I watched a bunch of bob villa back in the day for that! And made a shit load of mistakes. Okay maybe not that many mistakes, five that I can remember....

 

I’m on my fifth toyota offroad build, and I finally “figured” it out

 

I’m a youngster and I’m gonna go with fuse!

 

It’s a fuse for voltswagon? Or it’s a europeian fuse. I remember then in the fuse section of auto part stores

 

One of my regrets is not buying a new Tacoma in 95, when they had the cool swooshes on the side. If I had bought one, I’d still have it, and you could show me the ropes.
