    Beta Mastercargo Workbench?

    I have that workbench in my basement. Believe it or not the Home Depot near me carried them when they first opened. Honestly, I think HD had them only because the colors matched the HD colors. After looking at the workbench every time I walked in for the better part of three years, I was amazed...

    Falsely accused of running a business, may need to remove hoist – Help!

They took pictures over a couple months, both day and night photos. Most of the plates came back to extended family, so the case was dropped. The...

    Snap On 57 Chevy Belair Screwdriver set

    Didn't mean to imply that there is anything wrong with collecting tools or making money selling something that was limited addition. If I can get a "Cool" set like this at a good price, I'm going to use them.

    Snap On 57 Chevy Belair Screwdriver set

    Is it just me, but I don't see a set of screwdrivers as collectible. Instead I see a cool set of screwdrivers and I'd enjoy using. Anyone else fell this way?

    Ping Pong Cannon

    But a .22 cal pallet is only about 14 grains. So the multipliers are a lot lower. 14 * 1200 = 16,800 Remember the 600 fps for the ping pong ball was a guess. You can do the what if for 800, 1000, 1200 fps. I can't answer how the increased surface area effects things. You are still...

    Ping Pong Cannon

    Okay, let's see what we can figure out for ballistics. Bullets are weighed in grains and there are 7000 grains in a pound. Stuey estimated the weight at 1.2 ounces and that seems reasonable to me, I figure that to be 525 grains. (7000/16)*1.2 Just for some numbers, let's say this thing is...
