Cars 3 was a great movie. Watched it for the first a couple of days ago.

Do you paint Matt? Pain pills speed me out like that.

I use a cheap grinder, but I like to grind that shit to near dust. Makes some dank af coffee that way.

That shit made for some long nights. Work on house till midnight or one in the morning, then go to work at 6 AM.

I am no m5, but would suggest the Bodum. The screens suck in most of the other ones and will have blowouts. Plus can buy replacement glass if needed for the Bodum.

On large sheets i usually clamp a fence to the board and use the skil. These are just the baby 2'x4' sheets. I do all my initial cuts a hair big, then do a second run to clean them up from there. Much easier on the table saw.

Pretty close! I was poor as fuck and I just dropped the down payment. I had to remodel before I moved in. So it was buy a nice Skil saw and borrow tools from work everyday or that buy that set. Clearly I chose poorly, but was a young bull still learning his way.

Whats the preferred biscuit joiners you fellows own or have used?

That's insane. Good luck rebuilding.

Having a portable sawzaw was nice in emergencies. Was about the only time I used it afterwards.

I had a Ryobi combo set about 15 years ago. I broke the casing of the drill the first time I went to torque something down real heavily. The sawzaw would only make a cut or two before the battery died. The little circular saw on the other hand did make very smooth cuts and was easy to use. I bought them to remodel a whole kitchen. Which included building all the cabinets from scratch and gutting the floor to redo the plumbing. I even cut the countertops with it. Damn did I have to be strategic to get things done on that project.

When doing log work we used Makita and Dewalt for almost everything. From the 16" saw to the mortise cutter to 12" planers. That 16" saw would separate the men from the boys real quick. lol

Farm fresh?

The battery MUST be a sealed type like an AGM. Otherwise will gas into the car. I did the same thing because I couldn't reach the alternator. I bought the biggest battery they had at the parts store and mounted it next to my box. Other route is weld in a battery box next to the spare tire. I am running 2000 Watts to my subs, and two more 600 watt amps to the mids and highs. The second battery completely stopped my headlights from dimming and holds 14.1 volts, even at full tilt for long periods. If you are going to buy namebrand battery I would do the XS Power. Definitely DO NOT buy an Optima. Otherwise I promise the parts store brand will work just fine. Here's pics of my last two biulds for ideas!

I could only imagine, those things were nucking futts with the straight 6.

Installing a second battery in the back of the vehicle is another option, that will stop or reduce your headlights from dimming. Even without installing the Big-3.

HOLY.... Don't know that I would be investing enough to go through that much effort.

Agreed on both points. Also could hear you stating that fact before I finished typing. In context though, the statement referred to K.I.S.S. for the novice approach. If dropping in a complete pull-out engine, get the biggest you can. Also get the one with the most correct accessories as possible. Getting a Chevy motor to bolt into a Chevy is a no brainier, and can be done for next to nothing on the scale of things. BUT If someone has to track down and replace the intake, accessories, pulleys, starter, oil pan, etc. Then it's not for the novice or cost effective, and will be destined to life as a lawn ornament.

Yikes Aaron, they want way to much personal info on the Robinhood.

Just downloaded the app. Now to see if I can figure it out.

Haha, no worries. About how I felt when I realized your box had been sitting in my trunk for over a month, waiting to be shipped.

First you must crack the code to get on the mailing list.

Find out which vehicle they came in that has the correct intake and drive accessories to fit in the Blazer is what I would do If it were I, and I was going for the simplest of drop in's. If the kit come's equipped to deal with such issues, then disregard the previous statement. Otherwise there is no replacement for displacement. 6.0L FTW!

OH MY!!!!! Yes please and thank you good sir. That should be plenty to keep me busy!
