    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Yeah 2 ish hours. It's nearly the middle between Seattle and Spokane on I-90 I drive through it a few dozen times a year. Ain't much worth mentioning.

    Yea people on reddit were saying it’s pretty much the armpit of Washington. A fair bit of meth and crime too apparently, so you don’t even get sleepy small town vibes.

    Good, run that bad boy on 220, get yourself some solid wire, some gas, and you're good to go!

    I suggest clamps and magnets, they are your friend.

    Also, toss that sway bar to the trash.

    Chop saws are handy. I’ve yet to buy one. I just steal my buddies lol.

    Especially the sway bar part

    I’m a hoarder when it comes to parts
    Yeah I wasn’t going to get the saw.. but he had it sitting there, and I figure my neighbors won’t be as upset if I make my cuts quicker with this than with a grinder

    I lived in two "fancy" AZ neighborhoods, just do your cutting during daylight hours and no one will hassle you

    Yeah they are sneaky and aren't bothered by much. Pretty cocky little bastards. I wanted to catch an owl this year but accidentally stumbled on this one.

    Funny, if anything two different neighbors are always wondering what I'm making "this time around" and one of them usually brings a beer

    If people can see what I'm up to where I live now then they're trespassing.
