Touched up the roof paint where it had been all green and put some color back into it. Added what's may be an excessive amount of LED lights, so likely just the right amount. The front cluster: High and side / cargo lights. And some backup lights, with delineator plates. Took the stack...

Well, except the states have passed laws to explicitly allow other state's drivers to operate without a license. For example: WA: RCW 46.20.025 IN: IC 9-24-1-7 IL: 625 ILCS 5/6-102 WI: 343.05 (4)(b)(1) If licenses had to be honored between the states by the constitution, my WA pistol license...

Pretty much what he said. Parking is fun. Especially when someone decides to help you out. (I shoulda just taken 4 spaces, but was trying to be nice.)

The scrap loads I've bought have been dead on. And the scrap scale got my weight right when I stepped off it to sign paperwork. It's hit and miss for the other stuff. I've had some be off 2% and one off about 400 lbs, of 1K lbs. The scale I know about at JBLM is a block away. Maybe location...

Game cam is likely active IR. Thought the paint was good at passive IR systems.

I got one of these a few weeks ago. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003PGQI48?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 Was using a conventional air gun. Not Going Back.

Those are far cheaper than I'd have expected. Hmmm....

The most they can move if the friction fails is about 2". The U-bolts will have to break for the bars to actually be able to come out. The angle iron is long enough that it can't be pulled through either side while attached to the bar parts, and the collars prevent the bars from sliding through...

Not this week, but mounted the tow bar under the bed. Held in place by friction, don't seem to need to drill the frame.

There's a notch in the inner bead lock, so I think I cleared that as it rotates freely. More prying it is. I'll try the shop crane trick. I think I'm down to the bead on the air assembly.

Trying to get a tire off of a 5 ton rim. I've read this thread: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?126028-How-to-remove-tire-from-MRAP-wheels But I'm either not applying enough force, or doing something wrong. So far: Removed air Unbolted rim halves. Removed outside bead lock. Put...

The amount of 120V loads doesn't matter as much as the distribution between the legs. There's rules for when you can shrink neutrals. Yeah, rules... Vary...

Looks like both have 1.5" from the rim to the lug...

Well, it's the usual problem. I'm interested, but do you have a ball park? Half an order of magnitude accurate. i.e. this a $500 item, $2500, $5K?

That would make the new breaker ahead of the panel your service entrance, require neutral and ground be bonded there, and you have to separate them in your main panel. The labor on that may shoot inexpensive out of the water.

Visitor's Center is code for Military DMV. Set your expectation there and you'll be fine. I have no idea how Ft. Hood works, but at JBLM if you've got a trailer or large vehicle (M923, etc) you proceed directly to the Logistics Gate and use the commercial entrance as there's no way to park...

I get frustrated seeing a business taking steps to try and make money by doing things I think are customer unfriendly, while at the same time not taking actions that would be customer friendly like giving better info. (I happen to frankly not get reserve prices, put an opening min if you have a...

It's just been one of those days.

Yup, about the same here. Couple neighbors went from ignore to talk to. One even realize I'm not the one that's been calling the cops on him for the last 5 years. :roll:
