1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah, they're not remembering today anyway so no real need to do anything special

But yeah dude tourists will pay for all sorts of stupid shit; it's why my dad wanted to get away from all that

I'm betting @Ozark_RegCab is tired AF fulfilling all those orders non-stop

 

Yeah I may donate it to kars 4 kids already.

 

He is a smart man. Avoiding tourist is one of my favorite things to do when I'm not at work.
How is Theo doing with his teething. Almost all of Olivia's front teeth have broken through.

 

Top teeth a bit longer than Olivia's there, but her bottom teeth are coming in longer than Theo's so pretty much the same!

Doesn't even bother him, in fact he loves using them as he's always grabbing my hand to bite it.

He loves biting into food too so that's probably his way of soothing himself.

 

@Tour991



I'm sure one of you here can make a meme out of this (schoolbus = LT thread)

 

My dad has a machine shop company wonder if i can get a account with who ever you are buying from

 

No biggie!

I'll just get them online

Kayden having fun finding Easter eggs?

 

@Kwikvette also maybe start ordering tooling off mc mastercarr they have good stuff

 

We had are easter yesterday. So he got 2 hunts. One from my side the family and one from my wifes

 

Yeah, that's who I'm referring to for online

 

Yeah we got a ton of cold rain yesterday and off and on pouring today, low level snow elevation so our mountains look nice and white again

Gonna be 80 on Wednesday so it will be short lived lol

 

I order alot of my tools through them. The Williams brand they carry for their sockets and wrenches is hella nice.

 

little help:

gonna finally get around to installing the TRD short shifter:
instructions call for Toyota Transmission FIPG (Form-In-Place-Gasket) 00295-01282
is there an acceptable alternative to this, like the permatex RTV stuff

 

@Speedytech7

McMaster-Carr has their carbide 3 flutes available as coated and uncoated



$15 ain't going to make a difference to me really but should I bother with any of them? The coated variants are not meant for aluminum, which is moot as I won't be drilling into aluminum.

Go uncoated anyway if the goal is mainly mild steel with a little bit of stainless? Coated just lasts longer, but one of them specifically states an added hardness (c50 vs c70, both are $41 each)

 

permatex ultra grey or black, or the right stuff... they're all up to the job. Toyota FIPG for camshaft and oil pan works too

 

Coated is what we used 90% of the time in the machine shop. mostly helps with chipwelding

 

Good stuff, ordered.

 

Bought a tank today too; went 20 gallon over 15 gallon like initially planned

Thinking this Wednesday I'll start the cycling process

 

Thx!

 

Same here nice refresh but almost 60 by Tuesday.
