    Question, for the majority of you here.

    Would you guys want/need something cut out of -

    16 gauge if I say cover shipping?
    10/12 gauge if I say cover shipping and add a tip?

    Parameters being no more than 1 sq ft (mainly due to shipping, plus steel ain't cheap), 1 job per person, and last but not least you can't be on my shit list.

    Want to make this offer for those on here regularly that can benefit from it.

    It can be a business card holder, a sign of some sort, a set of brackets to replace those breaking or rusted on your steel cabinet, whatever you can think of that you might need.

    @Blue92 you're not excluded from this and those numbers you want are separate so don't worry about it.

    Ill gladly pay for the thicker metal. Also for shipping flat stuff I found it easiest to just stick it between two pieces of flat cardboard so youre not paying for a huge box.

    Padded envelope with cardboard sandwich was exactly what I wanted to do.

    I have tons of cardboard with all these boxes :bananadead:

    Think it would really depend on the something

    But in general I feel like 1x1ft is gonna bend too much if its only 16GA

    People pay a good chunk for stuff on Etsy, and a lot of their decorative stuff is only 18 gauge.

    I'm keeping it at 16 gauge minimum, and since I get hooked up I wanted to share some of it here.

    The tip covers my time and consumables, though really you could just tip as little as $1, or as much as $100 cause I'm not setting a minimum. Just whatever someone wants to give.

    If it slightly exceeds 1 sq ft I don't really have an issue with it, it's just to allow others to jump in.

    So interestingly enough the tires are all at 35 psi, guess I should do a chalk test to see what they need to be at

    Took the valve stem cover off the rear tire and air started bleeding out on its own, guessing I need to get a valve core tool and replace the core?

    you might just try tightening the core in case it's unthreaded a lil bit for some reason

    Do you have a bike tool kit? You might have a valve core fitting already

    Small Es on a light truck, I'd wager 28 is a good starting point. Is the spare original? Might have a rotten stem and you twisting split it too.

    Alright, it's getting to the point where I'm over winter and all that it brings, still got atleast a week of storms though.

    waters good though until it washes everything away

    Some things work aesthetically though, like I wouldn't want much thicker up here

    @Speedytech7

    This is what you use right?

    Only $20 for me; I know it will have tons more versatility but I hate that I'll have to learn from scratch...even though they also wrote the software for Draftsight.

    Yup! I love it, took classes in high school, working on what are essentially 2D items like you do will take you maybe 45-50mins to become proficient in and I would be happy to share my screen and show you. 3D isn't much harder for most things.
