    New Guy in South America

    I too would like to go off topic, and want to ask, how/why did you end up moving to Ecuador from I'm assuming, the USA?

    Help reading my gas meter

    Bottom left, when I worked at the gas company in Nebraska for my internship, we'd do a shut in test. Shut off all pilots and appliances as BCGPER said, and watch that dial for about 15 minutes to see if it moves at all. With everything off, it shouldn't, if it does, you could have a leak...

    Mine eyes

    Depending what you’re looking for, brand, etc, you can find them on KSL or Fakebook cheep. I paid $30 for an old Greenlee a few months back.

    Today I Want This....

    Seller- “Yes the carburetor has been covered” The photos tell me a different story though, could’ve been uncovered for 5 minutes, or 5 years.

    Your Pic of The Day

    I’m working on the house my wife and I just bought. The PO had a new furnace and AC installed, with no filter rack. So I installed a 1” filter grille today. Had to patch up a hole in the duct though, and I thought I had no tin, so I improvised. As I type this, I realize I actually do have some...

    Battery Operated Portable Air Compressors

    I just saw this video the other day. Considering the milwaukee he tested was only 12v, and the rest were 18v or so, I think the milwaukee would be the way to go. I'm partial to red though.

    There’s an old green trash truck running around in Salt lake that is an old Ford C series cab over. It’s pretty legit.

    Your Pic of The Day

    Reminds me of a prank I pulled on a friend a few years back. It started out as randomly leaving a single small pumpkin (As seen on the left) on his door step one night. Forgot about it, a couple weeks later remembered, and they were still trying to figure out who it was. So I started plotting to...

    Took this the other day, but I drive by it almost every day. That poor 3500# axle.

    I sold my diesel swapped, stretched samurai earlier this year. Guy I sold it to texted me, asking if I wanted the body and frame back. He kept the drivetrain, and decided he didn't want the rest, so I got it back for free! I ended up giving him $20 just so I had a price to list on the title...

    Tech guys: Help me chose a modem

    Sorry to revive this, but just bought a house, got Xfinity, trying to figure out what everybody is currently recommending. Am I better off with a separate modem and router, or are any of the combos decent? I see somebody shared the Asus ac1900 which looks decent, but from what I'm seeing, it's...

    Wanted 16" or 17" 5x5.5" wheels

    What kind of backspacing do you need, and hub bore size needed?

    Single axle Samurai trailer

    2"x2"- 1/8" is what I'm thinking would be more than sufficient, and much lighter than what the base is made out of, but I just have to find some. Drill pipe had indeed crossed my mind as well.

    Single axle Samurai trailer

    I’m now at a crossroad. I don’t have any more 2x2 square tube. Do I buy more to build upper rails in order for it to be strong enough? or Do I just buy some 4” channel, start over, and abandon the 2” tube frame completely? I got it for free, so I’m not in it other than time, and flux core wire.

    Single axle Samurai trailer

    I remember on my last thread, that was suggested. I talked to the guy I sold my last samurai too, who is a mechanical engineer, just to verify, and he agreed, that it would be plenty strong. He said if I did a triangulated truss, it would be way stronger than a piece of 4" channel.
