    I find this incredible; just thinking how tight the machine is in order to pull that off. Amazing cool stuff. I understand these machines have been able to hold tolerance in tenths for years. Just seems so cool because I've been on nothing but manual equipment for near 20 years

    only 14 years I can`t talk going on 5 years to put the plug on the clothes dryer .

    Plug sits on top of the dryer. along with 5 years of assorted parts.

    I can only guess that outlet is very hard to see. Things like that really stand out to me.

    I wonder if some outlets might be piggy backed to a 50amp or larger breaker. I saw that more then I ever wanted.

    My daughter had a plug not pushed in all the way for a lamp on her desk, she pushed a quarter off the desk top and it found it’s way to the top of that plug sparks every where and screaming

    we still laugh about it now, the quarter had a arch in it. Breaker still does trip every now and then after that

    Huh, you might want to consider changing out that receptacle and/or the breaker. Something’s compromised in that circuit.

    Good morning all :hattip:

    Good afternoon all. I did a little cutting on the lower radiator brackets so now the radiator should fit. It's going to be loose in there now so going to have to come up with something :confused:

    This is just me being honest with myself and I'm certain that almost everyone that frequents this thread will disagree with me, but...

    You guys are awesome and do some incredible work but I've never felt like I fit in here, more of a tag along. As such, when things got busy at work and at home a few weeks ago and I naturally took a step back, it was easier to just not stop back in. There have been a few times that I've poked my nose in to test the waters of coming back, and I'll likely swing by here and there but for the time being, I'll just quietly show myself out.

    Keep on kicking ass, everyone. :)

    Bro you belong here just as much as the rest of us! The fact that people are tagging you proves that you're wanted.

    Keep your head up!

    Hey man, we enjoy your contributions and laugh along with your stories. Not to mention the endless fun of your crappy weather up there...:boink:

    I feel our group is a great place where anybody with an interest feels welcome, we don't seem to have any cliques here.

    Even though you might not be a genuine Wrenchman ;) you still do technical work that Wrenchmen can identify with, find interesting and admire and present it with an entertaining style too.

    Talk about a tag along -- we have guys working on rockets, nuclear power stations, plasma cutters and CNC magical equipment ... and I have a drill press, mostly just cut grass, sleep in a chair and push non working engines around an old garage... :pout:

    I guess the short version is I consider you a friend and miss hanging out with you here.
