    Popcorn Button all it ever does is Burn Mine I guess that is what it does to increase the sales of Pop Corn for all that get tossed out .

    Even the Mice and Birds refuse to eat it.

    Canada - but our NEC is more-or-less identical to yours. Here the 'two hot/no neutral' has been off the books for a LONG time. Not to say that it isn't done, but it's not kosher.

    Never made M4 aluminum threaded rod before but I made a mistake and had to plug a hole and move it.

    Guy just came in with some 3" wheel spacers like this and wanted 2" cut off the back side. I said I can do it but you'll lose your counterbore and won't be able to bolt them on. He said aww man I didn't even think about that.

    Problem is, a lot of businesses don't really have a place to offload secondhand stuff like that. We've sold a surprising number of industrial and scientific devices like that off our books on KSL and Craigslist. Thermo is actually one of our competitors.

    Fair enough. Guess that's why we just send our stuff out to surplus and they have a sale every month.

    I still say it's strange for CL. :laugh:

    I needed something to put that kero in at the store. My boss borrowed my trailer over the weekend. Company across the parking lot had some totes, I ask if they wanted to get rid of one. He said you can have one :bananadance:

    Friend of mine just ask me to cut him a small piece of aluminum plate to mount an ECM. He put a 525HP LS3 in a 1967 Firebird :eek:
