it's an Acer C314. i got it for really cheap 1th 6ot more than what I was looking for too. I did Not expect to get a 2 ghZ Pentium and 2 gigs of Ram Didn't think I could Get all that for less than $250, especially with a tablet.

nice deal

still getting some ips errors

[RobClay 20]

still getting some ips errors

same i just got one a minute ago when i clicked forum on the main site, but it went away so

[Mark LaFountain 1,054]

those are just from server overloads, no threat to anything vital.

[seanbw 1]

yeah but it's vital that i be h0pping instead of looking at a blank screen that says ips driver error too

seriously though i know you guys have invested tons of work getting it back up and running, even if it is down i'll be waiting for the server to come back up

Can someone hook me up with a What.cd invite.... STmusic sucks...

[MKader17 332]

I hate snow!

It only goes to the error when I back up the database. But now it is backed up and we are good to go. Should be back to 100% normal, unless people want to tell people to post on other sites instead.

[seanbw 1]

i'm sure everyone will just come wandering home eventually, i don't wanna say like dogs... puppies?

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Sweet! I just fixed an Alpine deck I picked up on the cheap!

Just wondering, but how many times have you posted on a different forum telling someone to come here?

[topgun 262]

Eh, I've never seen Aaron post a direct recommendation to come here on SSA, seen it listed as a place of reference but nothing blatant that I've seen.

Spent 4hrs welding tonight, put a Millermatic 185 wire welder into temp shutoff, might have been welding a 'bit' past the 40% duty cycle... Welding on new tubes to a frame for weighing stuff. The guy got a new forklift with 6" forks rather than the 5" he use to have, tubes for the forks weren't big enough now. There is now some serious weld on that thing holding them forks on, gusset plates too.

Made a serious C-Clamp today at the shop that I need to get photos of. It has a 17" throat depth, 9" of clearance height wise. Made it out of 1"x3" 11ga (.120 wall) rectangular tubing, fish plated the joints, and TIG welded it. It is pretty friggin stout. Once that thing is done being used this week we are going to clamp it on something and torque the shit out of it to see how much we can get it to move.

[topgun 262]

Not a bad way to make 60$ for welding this evening, then have a couple beers and just talk.

Sweet!

[topgun 262]

Its kind of odd to be welding and the thing just shut off. Look over and the little digital display for the voltage and wire feed says 'HLP 002'

Never had a welder cry for help before.

Anyone else watching the Victoria's Secret fashion show tomorrow?
