    This lathe in NJ will be gone fast

    At least he called you back instead of no call back that would leave you wondering if the lathe was still there…….. I don’t think he was "rubbing salt into the wound" by calling you back.

    This lathe in NJ will be gone fast

    I agree! ^ Two weeks ago I sold my 2008 Chebby SIlverado within 3 days of listing it on CL……. First guy really low balled me, Second guy seemed interested but wanted to see what else was out there and had to "consult" with his wife, Third guy (a kid) wanted to test drive the truck before he sold...

    This lathe in NJ will be gone fast

    I am always respectful, prompt and on time when I show up to do a deal plus I am always with someone as a backup. I never keep large amounts of cash on my person when I go to a strange place. This "lathe deal" seemed sketchy from the beginning and I always go with my animal instincts when it...

    Grounding Boxes

    I had an electrical contractor call me and ask, "How do I ground the water pipes in a house that has all plastic pipe?"……… I told him to go to the supply house and ask for a non-metallic ground clamp so he did that and was very embarrassed. :LOL: He was really pissed off at me for giving him...

    Grounding Boxes

    Hopefully this explains it in simple terms: Grounding is the most "important thing" on any electrical system, so anything metallic like a metal box, switch back strap, receptacle back strap and ground screws that can become energized must be grounded……. "IF" a hot wire touches anything metallic...

    100 amp sub panel

    "IF" you were an electrical contractor who served an apprenticeship, obtained his license and now pays insurance you would understand why I don’t tell anyone how to do an electrical job like this over the internet.……. Nobody sees what materials are being used, the job site conditions or his...
