1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I can buy them for about a thousand from Alibaba. These machines are popular with people who make sleeved power harnesses for computers, usually they can go into the 25/26 GA range.

 

These are a must have for electrical work. Love me my stripmasters. I dont bring them to class cause I dont wanna show off lol. I use the standard electricians pliers there. Not graded on neatness either lol.
I only made that abomination once cause I was lazy. Usually they look like this.

 

Neat.

What would that system do?

 

Looks clean. Great job

 

Tell you the time jk

 

Teach just has us wire motor starters and relays in different combinations to achieve different start stop sequences. Top one is a standard forward/reverse setup using 2 motor starters connected together, bottom one is a sequential start stop for 2 single direction motor starters. So MS1 has to be on for the relay to open, relay has to be open for Ms2 to turn on.

 

One chick in my class showed up wth a bic lighter and a knockoff leatherman on the first day. Needless to say she got the right tools for day 2.

 

Wish those things worked on teflon jacketed wire when I really could have benefitted from one. But whatever, I don't have the need to use teflon wire anymore.

 

I use these Irwin automatic wire strippers, probably cut thousands of wires with this thing.

This is the kind of machine I'm looking at:

Yeah most of my classmates comment on how neat I keep my panels, they were to surprised to see the top one lol. Got lazy.

Ive learned that keeping these panels orderly is key for easy down the road maintenance. I hate seeing birds nests, and I think its dumb that were not graded on neatness, as thats the first thing employers are gonna look for.

 

Anyone know ballpark on rebuilding a w59 trans in the 4 bangers.

New marlin clutch kit didnt fix my bearing rattle. So it was not the pilot bearing.


Might just shell out the $1100 for the somewhat built marlin w59

Or I could get the marlin r series adapter for a r150 swap

 

Hard to find unless I go to marlin, but then might as well go w59 to just bolt it up

 

But I wants a house.




And I think they need a core, probably wouldn't like receiving a w59 but sending a r series

 

Makes probably about the same noise the 5spd is making at idle

 

Sometimes they won’t notice.

 

Truck can definitely wait, unless you find someone building land

 

The way my luck goes I'd get a call before I even receive it

 

I was about to throw this letter from Nielsen away when a crisp dollar bill fell out.

Imagine how many dollars have been just trashed.

 

Fill out the survey bruh, that’s like 2.5 gallons of gas

 

Oh yea... dollar bills there are like penny’s everywhere else.
