@Miamicuse I hear you , I’m already in the platform , so I will eventually add it to my collection. About the light , I assume that were it’s placed it would help , but when you turned it around or offset I imagine that the light would not be helpful ?

Thanks @Sprokitz I actually think I will be going back for another pack or two

It will depend on who is writing up these reviews also , they are interesting to read and as…[Read more]

Wow those are pretty slick looking. Did you paint in the dimples on the 🎲 or just left them natural. Great idea. How did you do those dimples.

Got a crazy amount of work to do , my boss asked me to work this whole weekend , not sure if I will or not. But today finishing up the tests then close off the bulbs on the lathe , then put them in the burn in fixture for 100 hour test.

Picked up a four pack of Erwin clamps from Patrick Morin last night 19 bucks for 2 6 inch and 2 12 inch. I think I’ll go back on my way home and pick up another package.

Wow. That’s a good deal ,
The Bosch flexi click is 139 that’s the best I’ve ever seen it. Plus you get another 20$ off in your cart 🤯

Now this is to me something interesting , definitely would like to know more about it , can’t wait to see it in the showrooms.

@RonW darn double quote 😡

I saw all that , just don’t know what it means does it delete everything from my profile , or is it just like sending myself a copy of the information on my profile. 🤷
