    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Thank you very much, I appreciate it. So far it's going as well as we could hope for. He's not in pain, he's in a very nice dedicated facility that's cheaper than the nursing home down the street, he's at peace with his situation, and was read his last rights today by his priest. He's 90 so...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Pulled some more broken pieces of the headlight housing and trim for the trash. A confused old man pulled out in front of me on the way home and I couldn’t stop in time or avoid it. Could have been much worse - we are both ok, three witnesses stopped on my behalf, officers were very nice...

    Hopefully it's retroactive, and I should have said, "almost never." The last one required some cleanup! :(

    It's already been dumped into an empty oil container, just took the pic while waiting for the engine to warm up. The four-legged helper only watched from the storm door. I never make a mess with oil changes, but coolant changes are another story.

    Spilled coolant all over the floor.

    Insanely bad customer service experience from Matco

    Somehow, Discover ruled in favor of Frank's Tools after that fucker kept my money but never shipped me a thing. They're certainly not guaranteed.

    How do you store your electric extension cords?

    I've been using the over/under rolling method for the past several years and it really makes things easier. It's just as fast to roll them back up but makes them much easier to throw/pull from when unrolling. Overworked, underpaid.

    I've been using basic 2D AutoCAD for 30 years and love it, and taught myself some 3D in it during some downtime at a college job. Prior to graduation, I took my school's basic Pro-E class just for shits 'n grins...what a trash software. Backwards from what I was used to and loved (make rough...

    We have several large IR units with leaks all over the damn place. It's one of those PMs that just never ends up being done. @slodat, looks like a very nice unit, enjoy! Good service is an important part of capital purchases.

    Makes sense, thanks! I was a tad confused, they're obviously different from a stock slab side but didn't seem to match ERA's pics online, either. Love the colors. I'm a bit of a Cobra nerd, always hoped to build a Factory5 someday but I've no idea what I'd do with it. I'm not a fan of...

    Were the extra-wide flat flares an ERA thing?
