The GoPro battery lasts for 6 hours??

I have a Bose soundock. Pricey but the sound really is better than most other units I've listend to.

yuck, vinyl flooring. My childhood was marred by it and I said once and for all, never again. My children won't know what vinyl flooring is, god willing. Yes go with the enzyme stuff they usually aren't scented (those try to mask the odor)

I love the look of those, and here's an (somewhat) interesting read on the history of jerrycans; German engineering! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerrycan Oh and I don't have a shed, so I guess a couple of these jerrys in a locked cabinet will be my plan.

I just keep it in one of those red plastic containers in a corner on the floor, but now with a toddler roaming about I may store it in an elevated position or in a cabinet with lock & key. I'm just curious as to how other people store theirs. TIA

My Dad has a pretty snazzy one from Kaiser (I think, the body is yellow), every time I borrow it I like to first consume a few adult beverages then put on the headphones and go to town on the driveway/walls/walkpaths around my home. I may have to buy one to keep in my own house permanently; they...

I don't like how there are holes in the mat, I prefer a seamless material that wont get nails snagged in it. The rubber black stuff works for me.

How good of a picture quality can you realistically expect if you have a good signal? Seems like a awful lot of data to be transferred if the image is in HD.

Piston compressors don't really matter much, many of the components are all manufactured in China regardless of brand. Screw compressors you would need to buy from one of the top guys (UR, Atlas Copco, Kaiser, etc) There are only about half dozen manufacturing facilities in the world that can...

Yeah the rims get spin balanced at the legit shop, although on the track using the dot placement method for new tyres seem to work ok for the most part, no noticeable vibration and the tyres wear out way before I need to worry about imbalance from gradual wear. Seems like a real pain in the ****...

Thanks for the replies. I've seen the combustable method on youtube and I think I want to keep my eyebrows. My problem is I frequently need to change the tyres on the car I track with, sometimes just after a day of racing. I have a small mountain of tyres in my garage and it really is annoying...

32 CFM, or less than 1 cubic meter of air per minute is about as small as most air dryers go, unless you are dealing with high pressure air over 100 bar (then there are a whole other class of air dryers for those) There is no reason you should buy a 150cfm dryer for only 32 CFM of air because 1)...

Pressure dew point and ambient dew point are different things. The dew point ratings on compressed air dryers deal with pressure dew points. If you live in a colder climate eschew the refrigerated style dryers and op for a desiccant dryer, which have standard pressure dew points of -40F. So...

This. Also depending on the outlet temp of your compressor (I am assuming it is a piston comp not a screw) you can wear out the desiccant material prematurely (once they burn out they no longer retain water/regenerate) Of course, you can also look into refrigerated style air dryers which have a...

The mechanical tyre/rim separators at my filling station is a beast and I wouldn't expect to buy one of those for my home garage. I've been to more ghetto operations where they use a combination of a small sledge hammer and complete deflation to get the tyres on/off the rim. My question is are...
