I thought I lost mine a few years back. (I needed it to establish a new account at a supply house)
I took mine at TEC and the sanctioning body was VGI back in 95. They told me they didn't keep any...

I'm trying to get used to it too since it's the only browser that looks good for me in windows 10. I sure hope Edge and me start getting along better soon...

Hahaha. Yep, I would for a while. Setting up dual boot on your main computer isn't that hard to do so you have both, but I think you have to have the older operating system in there first, but It's...

I can't speak much to windows 8 as I never tried it but I would like to add that I just picked up a Black friday smart tv. I went to reprogram my universal remote on the windows 10 side of this PC,...

That was a problem for me too. I ended up doing a dual boot setup here recently windows 7 on one side, and 10 on the other. Works great for me!

LOL!
I think I would have paid to see that.

I have windows 7 and don't want to upgrade for various reasons. If you are bothered by that nagging icon in the corner of your screen to upgrade here is how to get rid of it.

Control Panel...

I never covered up in the past, I'm fair skinned being irish, and now have a couple cancer spots I am having taken care of. Doc says it's all from sun exposure and is thoroughly preaching wearing at...

Lennox or in that family by chance?

I have an install that looks almost identical to the pic posted by cjp and it is doing the same thing as the op. I have to go back again yet, but when I emptied the inducer, the collector box was...

I missed this thread till now. While I don't use mine a ton, maybe 7 times in a week, I have had the cheap ones from walgreens for about a year now, and just added another one, and so far neither...

Hahahahaha!
Needed that laugh after today.

Welcome to the site and best of luck Paul!

Impact and a driver with hammer function. I use both drills daily in installs and the hammer function probably once a week for disconnects and strapping 3/4" pvc etc.
Iv'e only been using an impact...

At times I wondered if they were worth the price too. I have 4 main bags, only one is a Veto so far (about to get a second veto) and so far, no how many modifications I do to the cheaper bags to make...

I hate to hear this stuff lately about Fluke's customer service cuz I really do like the product....At least the old stuff. Still carry my old 1995 ish fluke 23 as my everyday meter.
I did try to...

You'll love them!
Coming up on a year here with mine in service and I could not be happier! I had one small issue where my apprentice didn't realize they were 1/4 turn knobs and cranked on it last...

Parts and tools, I try to carry a lot of ...More than most since mine is a service and install truck too. I can't tell all of what you have there, but what I do see is full rolls of liquid tite and...

I prefer an open top bag over one with zippers. It's a nice easy grab all the time to get stuff and shove it back in it's place. Even when the bag is packed in the van and I just want a couple things...

No medicated drops, just re-wetting drops for about a month. Like said above by others, I don't think I near needed them that long, but I did what they told me just in case.
I was better than 20/20...

I had it done about 7 years ago, best money I ever spent!

I would kinda figure out what your end goal for the car is, and look around and see if you can find one done already. for example, if you are looking to build a 1/4 mile car, you can...

+1 Great post.
I was fortunate to be trained under a guy once I got in the field (on the service side) that really enforced this kind of thinking and it was awesome. I learned a TON on P.M. calls...

Thanks for the great review!
After reading it, I finally ordered a set and they are on their way. I Can't wait to check them out!

I've used quite a few...Not for our trade, but for shade in the pits at the racetrack when I was doing superbike trackdays.

They are nice to have I imagine for our work too. My experience with...

Here is my basic set up
(The Veto is ever evolving since it is a new bag to me still after a couple months and is currently about 32 lbs) I set up the Veto here going into heating season, so a lot...

Happy New Year guys and gals!

Aurghhhhh,
I hate going back in the house to give the awkward explanation of why they have no heat, and will be cold showers for a couple days.

What sucks worse is I usually loose them as clients...

Missed this thread somehow when first posted up...
I had a duct install in a nasty shallow crawl on friday all day where the old set up was using the crawl as the return plenum, then a couple no...

Welcome!
Sounds like you are learning from a real knowledgeable guy. I would definitely learn all you can from him. That kind of diversity will teach you a lot of controls and electric understanding...

Man, I have tried that trick a whole lot of times now, for me at least, it almost never works. I think I have got about a 10% success ratio with it at very best.
I always have to leave an open...

I hate to see a fresh set of snips get destroyed that way by a lazy installer or a new guy who didn't know any better. On the bright side, when it does happen, you have a new set of 'beater snips'...

+1 for Midwest.
They were even better when they were sold under the Craftsman name and had the lifetime warranty :D

Those do look pretty slick and wouldn't take up much room in the bag out of the case. I carry some now, but they don't adapt easily to my drill...I think I'm going to give these a try thanks!

LOL!
They added more scrap value to the pile there with the chain...It looks heavy.

Welcome!

Edit:
Open forum...So I need to word it differently. I'll just say the inducer motor could be dropping out intermittently. you should be able to follow where I'm going with that.

I'm sure others will chime in here soon with their experiences.
If you do go with Ridgid, be sure to get the ones with the X4 packs. (This applies more specifically if you are buying off ebay) I...

I use their stuff.
I have the 18 volt drill, impact and one handed saw. It is good stuff and the warranty is great,(LOVE the one handed saw/Hackzall for small spaces and quick cuts) but I have to...

Van looks good!
On a side note...LOL! I used to have a beater van I had the "shop runner" drive...It looked a little shady to be honest. Pretty sure it was the tube bumper on the rear and no...

Getting a pallet jack on the roof would be harder than moving that unit.
Last time I had to move one across a roof to a new location and was down to a 2 man crew, I borrowed a couple of my...

Aurgghhh! I hate being reminded of this. I'm 39 now, and they have been telling me for over 15 years I need to have all 4 pulled.
Everyone I have ever saw who had it done looked so damn miserable,...

I Lost mine a while back and just made my own out of an old set of leads I had laying around to keep in my bag for now.
Would these work your meter?...

I've used the craftsman extractors on lots of things with great success when dealing with stripped bolts. These things were lifesavers on my old Mustang restoration.
As far as the drill and screw in...

You got lucky is right!
I always stress I'm gonna get a rear end hit esp. when I have bundles of pipe of any kind stacked in the back!

Sorry to hear about the gear, but glad to hear you are ok...

LOL!
After I finished my post, I thought of a scenario just like that and was going to add it in. So true!

That was an excellent video and well worth the watch for those who haven't seen it...

I think you are on the right track. I hate to say it, but often...

That sucks that they got stolen :(
My only real prize was a Hutch Trickstar that I guess turned out to be worth a lot of money. I did not find that out until YEARS after I gave it away a couple...

Welcome!

Last time this happened to me it was after hours & I had no one to call. Could not read the cap or the name on the plate. I got lucky though. I could read the tag on the fan motor to know that side...

LOL!
That's exactly what I was thinking. At bare minimum, you are getting pink eye.
