    I only invest in what I can put in a bathtub and swim in like Scrooge McDuck.

    I just dumped a handful of stocks and moved that money to silver. My first time. Popped my precious metals cherry.

    First Aid, Trauma kits & medical supplies discussion

    After reading reviews and doing comparisons on different kits, I ended up ordering from MyMedic. I got the advanced fak and solo kits as well as the stitch kit.

    The RC/Model thread....

    I don’t think I have video of my buddy’s. This dude slapped a gps on his and got it going 135. Skip to about 3:15 and watch how quick that thing goes from out of sight back to out of sight again. He had to find a long straight stretch of rural highway just to clock it. It’s speed makes it...

    The RC/Model thread....

    My buddy bought an X01. 103mph out of the box. There’s literally nowhere you can open that thing up. In 2-3 seconds it’s far enough you can no longer see it well enough to control it.

    The RC/Model thread....

    I went though a cycle of upgrading parts. Started running 6s batteries which lead to breaking axles, so I upgraded to aluminum ones. Then hubs started breaking, so I upgraded those to aluminum. Then I started stripping wheels so I went to 17mm hubs. Then I started breaking aluminum parts and...

    First Aid, Trauma kits & medical supplies discussion

    I was just about to post a thread asking for advice on this. I feel that first aid is probably the one area of survival for which I am woefully unprepared. I'd like to take some classes or something, but I want to go ahead and have all the kit I would need. Been thinking about it more since...

    The RC/Model thread....

    I was into RC for most of my life until a couple years ago. Mostly stadium trucks, but planes for a while & one helicopter. I still keep some stuff around for the kids. I think I have a mini revo and an HPI Bullett that's in a million pieces in the basement.

    trolling the ODT

    If you go into it up front like “hey guys, regular golf rules, I don’t really do that. This is how I do it.” Is it still considered cheating??

    Someone school me

    In my experience, any 40+ grain will stay subsonic with a suppressor and quiets don’t cycle worth a damn in anything. Ruger SR22, ruger 22/45, gsg 1911, HK 416D - none of them will cycle quiets surpressed. I even changed the spring in the 416D and it’s still hit or miss. Quiets are worthless for...

    Public toilets?

    I'm with you on that. At some point I got tired of ordering replacements and just let it go. I can't imagine doing anything on an EDC basis that would damage the threads.

    Public toilets?

    I've been around, just not as active. Busy with work and kids as usual. Also married a hot lady back in July, been doing a lot of projects, adjusting, finishing my basement, spending time on other hobbies, etc. I don't even recognize half the names around here anymore.

    Public toilets?

    Research shows that adhd is extremely common amongst CEOs and entrepreneurs. It makes us good multitaskers and delegaters. I quit college and worked in the auto body industry because of it. Worked out very well for me.

    Public toilets?

    We run into this all the time. Insurance says the car is totaled, customer wants to keep it. We basically just tell them that the Customer wants to keep their car, so pay as much as you can without totaling it. I think only one time I can recall that an insurer wasn’t able to be convinced to...

    Removing from the registry.

    I would just build another one. Too much trouble to go back. If you did decide to do that, you wouldn’t have to remove it, you’d just have the option to go back to sbr later if you want.

    Used Suppressors

    I think some people have a hard time justifying the $200 tax and wait for a used item. I’ve never seen one cheap enough to justify the headache of figuring out what to do with it while I wait for the stamp. With suppressors, I kinda feel like once I buy them I’m married to them. So I’d rather...

    Coat hanger DIAS

    I don’t think they’re made of just steel. I can remember seeing old school bodywork guys using coat hangers for brazing. That wouldn’t work with regular steel. My guess is that they are some kind of softer, more rust resistant alloy that does contain brass.
