    Learning to work on cars via a Tacoma has spoiled me in many ways. One of those ways is not having to learn the progression of SAE wrench/socket sizes. I don't miss it often.

    @Speedytech7 I guess your clown gloves are also good for tactical activities. This is part of the equipment rack at a laser tag/airsoft place I was at earlier tonight.

    It's a cool place. The laser tag blasters they have are retrofitted Paintball markers. They even have a functioning safety, which is great for messing with friends who don't have experience with firearms.

    Certain things, even when money is tight, are worth splurging on occasionally. Good ingredients are one of those things imo.

    Anybody ever use a hammer impact driver? I picked one up yesterday for cheap at a local Advanced Auto's liquidation sale. I think they're neat but don't now how useful it will be when I already have a good set of electric impacts.

    Since it's "colder" out there right now, they tend to be a lot less active

    My coworkers that live there are the same, once it gets below 60 they get even less done.

    I'm looking real hard at a Bambu Labs, possibly the X1, depending if I decide I want the reinforced nozzle or not. Near as I can tell the Bambu ones are as close to unpack and go with no fiddling around as it gets.

    This one is pretty close to your price range:

    They are awesome! A screwdriver bit on an electric impact will just strip the head. I used mine yesterday removing the corroded bed cleats. Always come in clutch on brake rotors that have that stupid little screw too. I find a reason often enough to bust it out.

    yee for brakes it can be a huge time saver. also super handy for the some of the JIS fasteners in the engine bay like the TPS and IAC screws that want to strip otherwise.

    Those IAC screws are now hex cap screws on mine. JIS phillips is the devil if you don't have the exact screwdriver.
