Wow, people are bitching here in the library because the elevator isn't working on this floor and they have to walk down ONE floor to get to the main level... so hard...

And all this because I want to smash a pop can in ways that no man has ever smashed a can before.

Its never good when I'm looking at e-bay auctions of stuff rated in kV.

Ahhh, independent liquor stores here, but we have the Carrie Nation laws that prohibit the selling of anything good at grocery stores etc.

I'm confizziled. For anything above 3.2% you have to go to an actual liquor store to get 6% beer and hard liquor, you can only buy 3.2% donkey piss in grocery stores/gas stations. Is that what you were askign?

Sorry, Scotch.

Sean, got any recommendations for good whiskey under 50$ a bottle?

I think what he did was the floating pin on the backside that you have to tip the gun at the correct angle in order to put the bolt retainer pin in (that last piece that holds the bolt in), I think he forced it together and bent that or something along those lines. If you held it normal it wouldn't latch the firing pin back correctly and function right (you could rack the slide, but the firing pin wouldn't cock), but if you held it upside down (I think it was..) it would work correctly.

Last stuff I bought was Johnny Walker Blacklabel

I need to get more Scotch.

I rock the Canon AE-1

Speaking of Ruger pistols, my roommate broke his Mark III 22/45 the other day, I'm pretty sure he assembled it wrong and bent something, but I haven't looked at it yet and not sure if I care to.

Ahh, not my definition of Hustle for money, but I got ya. I just made some easy money the other day doing crown molding for a professor sunday, also have to do some more trim for him, and do a ceiling too. Easy money, he pays me well, feeds me, has decent tools, and free beer. Great setup.

What do you hustle?

NP: Dropkick Murphys.

That 300 straight six of Ford's is indestructible.

Thats a big arse grill.

Werd.

But through Alaxan so I can get paid...............tell him I sent ya But he doesn't sell Thinkpads with a 4yr you break it we come and fix it warranty.

Got a check from one of my accounts today so I can finally buy my new laptop. Now I just have to mail it to my Uncle and get the computer built and shipped back to me...

Its 'Fake St. Pattie's day' here in Manhattan, and basically all my friends are at the bars already and I'm having trouble finding people under 21 to party with...

I'd often thought about head phone holders, but never got around to building some. I figured there were plenty out there already. It appears that would be a good market to start in, those plywood ones for 42$ are (in my opinion...) ugly, and overpriced. There is less than 1.50$ in materials in that thing and you can make it in probably 20min if you know what you are doing. This looks like a very interesting market, thanks for the heads up Neil. I think I'm going to have to go visit a lumber yard and pick up some walnut and 'exotics' and start seeing what I can make. Needless to say they will have curves and not be just a regular stand. I'm already excited about this. I'll give you a $1.50 for a pair I think you'd rather have a stand for about 30$ that is done in steam bent walnut or something along those lines. Pics when u do this Not much to it really, you just make a 'steam box' thats open on both ends, put your piece in there on some risers, fill it with steam and it takes ~15min for every1/4" of thickness. Then you can bend it around your form. For these that I'm thinking of, I'll probably do a steel plate with holes drilled in a grid (then use bolts) so I can play around with different configurations and shapes till I find some that I really like.

I could do those for 10$ (shipped) though, the shipping = teh killah.

Toppage!
