    @koditten last time you had your oxygen bottle filled/exchanged do you remember what it cost?

    I have two 160's and left the valve open on one of them a couple months ago and it was empty. I haven't exchanged it in 7 years or more. The company was bought out where I bought it and I was ready to pay big time since I know the tank is out of hydro date.

    I went earlier and since they changed they don't have me in the system. Yada yada I got out for $23.47 :goingcrazy:

    I sold my torches a couple years after I got the plasma torch.
    I only used them for heating up froze
    nuts and bolts, expanding bearing races or similar.

    The 1 pound torch does everything I need these days.

    That is a great price. It's not a noble gas, so I think it's always gonna be cheaper than cover gasses.

    I am at night two without power and therefore without the CPAP machine. Sleep has been pretty much non-existent. I now recall what it was like before getting the machine. Use the machine for a week, then don't use if for a night and see if you notice a difference in how you feel in the morning.

    Thanks guys :hattip:

    It was kind of a fun job in a miserable way...
    I try to make it entertaining. :laugh:

    I am quite sure there is no treasure chest here, nobody who ever lived in this house had much wealth -- the trend continues...:pout:

    We got VOIP phones at the old job, the clarity was kind of unnerving, you could hear peoples facial hair (men mostly ;) ) touching the phone.

    Part 2:
    The Company always purchased the cheapest available so the phones could be glitchy and seeing as they worked over the server (again cheapest available) if (when) the server went down it took the phones with it. :annoyed:
    .
    .
    .
    For the entire company. :frusty:
    .
    .
    .
    So you couldn't call the man bun IT guy to work on the server. :goingcrazy:

    Well.. the coworker was trying real hard to hold back happy tears. The cutting board belonged to her father who has passed and I was able to give her and her sisters back a piece of their history.

    I needed a longer handled shovel to clean ashes out of the stove. Quick and simple.
