1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

lol I remember seeing that one and I actually ordered the DeWalt. Decent, happy with the thing. I trust it more than those Amazon Tekton ones I have.

 

but I need fancy stickers for my fridge

Do yall have pecans (pea-can) out there? Chocolate pecan pie is my favorite.

Bet that class wont teach you how to make persimmon pudding either...

 

Gotta say the Tekton I have has been good. Knock on wood.
(Granted its the lighter duty 3/8 10-80ft)

 

Granted, I got a decent deal via a TW group buy, but it was at least two years before the Ebay specials hit the scene.

And in case anyone is wondering, it’s still safely in the box with the other mods on the parts shelf

 

We have pecans (pe-cons)

 

Probably in bags too.


The trees are everywhere around me. Had one in the parking lot of my last job.

 

My grandma always made a mean pecan pie, but nah no one does shit with persimmons except give you excuses why they've gone bad haha

 

Why do 95-97s have to look so good

 

I just think it's the perfect amount of 90s, little bit of rounded to smooth out the 80s sharp angles but it hadn't turned into a late 90s early 00s blob yet.

 

I have 3, 2 of them the little rubber cap for the calibration port popped out and wont stay put anymore. 1 is still fine. They aren't bad - I still use them.

Before I ordered the DeWalt, I was seriously considering one from Precision Instruments. May still order one of theirs.

I've got the Kobalt Torque/Angle one for fine work and I use a Tekton for medium stuff and one of the large Icons for heavy shit up to 300lbs. And I have a little baby craftsman for inch pounds that I fucking never use.

 

Been trying to get my insulin prescription refilled since last Tuesday. Couldn't get anyone to answer so I took the proactive approach and scheduled my annual appointment Thursday. Thought it'd be good after that but noOOoo. Pharmacy had been trying to reach them Friday, everyone ofc is closed Sat and Sun, and now come Monday I will be completely out tomorrow if it's not refilled. Called twice this morning, and Walgreens called twice to no answer. Finally drove my ass down there and demanded to be taken care of. So we'll see if it gets handled now or I end up in the hospital tomorrow.
The fact that I need a prescription to keep living after 27 years of diabetes is inarticulately stupid.

 

So true. Perfect blend.

 

Can you suggest a decent digital for say up to 100lbs? Been wanting a digital just haven't taken the time to really do the research. I think craftsman came up, not sure.

I found the tekton inch pounds one I have came in handy due to its small size when I was putting the transfer case back together after re-doing the innards.

 

Ugh. Feel the pain. The Rx though is because they want you to come in for labs on a regular basis. Diabetic, have to do the good ol' lab work from time to time to make sure the kidneys and liver are still working.

 

Oh boy, you really shoulda asked the forum before settling on that ass gaping payment. A company called CDI out of GA makes the torque wrenches for snap on. Exact same thing but colored blue and much cheaper

 

If your cool with the old skool style insulin you can buy it from Walmart with no prescription for about 25 bucks
