Nimble9's Secondhand Parts Build

Links for my workbench overhaul. I'm only sourcing from Lowes because I have a handful of gift cards that I forgot about. If they were HD gift cards I'd be buying more Milwaukee tools.

You, sir, have great taste in YouTubers. TRay is one of my faves

 

YESSSSS!

I found him a long ass time ago when he was back at the OG house looking at tool reviews.

Then I followed his builds and the move to the shop / house with Ben, and his new shop / house.

The latter is GOALS

 

His fummins is goals too. He's the reason I have those lights in my garage.

Really enjoy his channel and I'm excited for his new shop. He deserves it.

 

For real. He's the most relatable dude because he ACTUALLY builds his shit and shows the real struggles of everything. We're still house hunting (more like waiting on the economy to collapse, hopefully next month) and when I finally get a garage I'm going in on building it.

 

BIG yikes..but I agree. That's all I'll say without (hopefully) the ban hammer coming down.

 

No p Word stuff in here. Only market stuff.

The market has been needing a correction for a long time. When it happens, it'll snowball into our economy. I believe it's going to be 2008 but worse.

I've been expecting it to happen earlier, specifically when mortgage forbearance ending in June but they moved it to July so we'll see what actually happens.

I was at a party this weekend with some friends that work in finance that I haven't talked to in a while, and after our conversation I fully expect it to happen.

Here's a great read that pretty much sums up my sentiment: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk...bigger_short_how_2008_is_repeating_at_a_much/

 

You're not wrong. I've been waiting..

 

I'm hoping math is right and the market makers and hedge funds run out of crime to use so that I can profit off of the downturn.

We'll see!

 

Officially moved the truck to low mileage insurance or whatever it's called.

I've driven 3k miles in it since August 4th of 2020 lol

 

Quoting this because my seats are biggest annoyance in my Tacoma at the moment

 

Out of curiosity, what are your issues with them?

Love my SR5 seats... enough to put them in two Taco's so far

 

Really? maybe it's due to my obesity but even with the seat spacer it's not a terribly comfortable seating position.

 

So it looks like King lead times are still wild.

Can $GME just moon already so I can go full JDfab LT with all their bells and whistles and call it a day?!

Might just go the ADS route

@cynicalrider did some custom work with them, think he’s pretty pleased with the turnout

 

I remember Tim @HolyHandGrenade (if you're still around the forums) went with them and raved about them too.

I'm also looking at FOA but their lack of response to my emails about their shocks doesn't bode well for customer service if issues arise.

 

Just ask @ToyRyd04 how well they performed when I was hooning at rausch. Nothing like going over a 1.5-2 ft dirt mound sideways and the truck not skipping a beat lol

 

haha so they've held up well in with wheeling and this east coast salt malarkey we deal with?

 

I've heard good things about Elka. Here's a thread comparing them by someone who had kings..

Nice! I haven't even considered them. hmmmmmmm
