My condolences

 

Manual trans for the camry

 

I know she meant a lot to you and I don't doubt that she is with you. I can't imagine the difficulty of those reminders that she isn't there by your side anymore

 

They tend to be more expensive in nearly all cases but they will ALWAYS have what you need. https://grainger.com

 

Always sucks hearing this news.

 

@Wulf, someone is trying to steal your thunder

Yooooo

 

Dailies could use some more tread fr

 

But they’re sooooo comfy

 

lawn/yardwork shoes

 

And also office, and also airplane, and also grocery store, and also...

 

There's an ARE topper on Craigslist that I recognize from a truck that showed up in the you-pull yard two days ago. The photo in the listing sill has the yard markings on it, and I'm pretty sure it's taken in the yard's parking lot.

Funny the things you notice when you spend too much time on the internet.

Nerd alert

 

Flux core is the herpes of the welding world

At least i remembered how to draw straightish lines while making my Trail Gear buddies

 

Be careful who you say that around the Flux Core lot are very sensitive about their booger gun preferences

 

Honestly, for building trailers and fences I totally get it. Even for saving money

But now that I can fit most of my shit inside a wind resistant enclosure I really appreciate the gas MIG setup. Despite my haggard presence I actually care more about appearance than I could have ever admitted before

 

I'm sure if they could read they'd be very offended by this

 

Taking pride in what you do and produce is normal. Guys that just send it with a dirty stick electrode or flux core get the job done... sure. But why not take literally the same time for a much nicer and controlled result

 

I've had my eye out for a topper and always have my eye on the junkyard.

I almost went to look at that truck this morning but decided the odds of me finding anything I wanted on a 5-lug that's he wrong color both inside and out weren't worth dealing with the slush.

But also, yes, nerd.

 

If I can do it inside, im Tig welding it. No sparks/slag flying around, no grinding afterwords. If I have to do it outside or cant fit it in the garage, Im using flux core. Simply cause its my only other option. But not before properly prepping the part and using legit industry grade wire from a supply house (Hobart fabshield HB21) was my preference.

Those that load up a spool of harbor freight FC wire and bitch about the results deserve what they got.
