    Took 5 minutes to plug this in...finally got one that doesn't run right. Doesn't turn after power on until you bump the shaft then only turns about 1/2 speed. Tomorrow or Friday will tear down and see if the start relay is dirty. But had a day much like the ones Timm aka Beerhippie describes...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I got the sights and bipod installed on a rifle. Used the $1 Snap On soft face hammer garage sale score and the Bondhaus hex keys from a GJ recommendation. Never had fooled with an M Lok mount before but not too bad. The sights were tight adding them. Never know how well they'll work as the...
