    IR Laser thermometer recommendations

    I have a FLUKE infrared laser thermometer, model # 62 MAX. It has given me good service. It was on sale at GRAINGER's $107.50 +tax on 8/16/2016. You may want to know the items ''drop something'' it is called, that is the distance the item can be safely dropped and survive the fall (yeah right)...

    Extended front forks a banana seat (room for the girl next door), ape hangers and a sissy bar, but I can't see why it was called it a ''sissy bar'', yea baby. Then that kid down the street moved in with a 10 speed English Racer with those ram horn handle bars.

    I knew someone would pick up on that. Yes, that was a ''quick killer'', but I did not want to mention that and get shot down for being ''stupid''.

    Speaking of ''Front Forks'', did anyone here cut forks off of one bike and jam the cut off ones on to the other forks of another bike, for that extended look?

    It felt rather good when Maintenance (adults) came in to the kids with something to fix/fabricate. I think I made a cast Aluminum plate for the front of somebody's car once a week at least. You know the type with the Make, Model and CI.

    When the Wood Shop Teacher said he was going to use the drill press to drill a square hole in a board. I thought he was full of you know what. That was the first time I saw a square hole drilled in wood.

    That is a nice tool you made there Moparfeind. With me, Class of '77. Metal Shop was the coolest class. Rockwell lathes, Milling machines, chips flying, don't have the foundry sand to damp, don't knock over the Welding Bottles and keep them capped when not in use, WEAR YOUR SAFETY GLASSES, TUCK...

    Welding help please. Can't get the machine to start up.

    If he would buy another one today and return the older (October) defective one tomorrow on the newest receipt, if by chance the newest one won't work, he had already returned one (the older one) on that newer receipt. Will he be stuck with the newer one if it did not work? I'd have a friend do...

    I know it's over the time limit, but Lowe's wants you happy and satisfied. I read 90 days for return, but I may missed some fine print. https://www.lowes.com/cd_Returns+and+Refunds+Policy_33243642_

    Welding help please. Can't get the machine to start up.

    Do a continuity test on the cables, turn off the machine of coarse. Check the trigger/nozzel cable and ground cable for hooked up wire on inside of machine. Mine has a fuse but I do not know if it shuts down the whole machine or just the nozzle/ground arc.

    Nibble....nibble

    Really nice tools, nibblers, but oh the thousands of chips (nibs). Especially those quarter moons, the points stick in anything.

    Locking grease gun tip

    And if you had that clip on tip you would not have to hold the hose. Although with the clip on tip you have to know if there is room to fit a finger and the clip lever at the location.

    Locking grease gun tip

    Works wonders, don't think I paid that, but when greasing dirty equipment with lots of zerks it is nice to have, it sucks to look down or up and see a glob of grease oozing out from under the standard tip. Really sucks when laying underneath and the standard tips pop off because you tweaked the...

    Tankless water heaters, which brand?

    Find out from the Manufactures if the Warranty is still valid if the product is bought on line. I do think to protect a warranty it may need to be descaled every year like mentioned above by moparnation74.
