Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 (edited) Work that can't be done on a phone or computer terminal is pretty much worthless and should be paid as little as possible, and anyone who thinks otherwise is an unnecessary, uneducated mouth-breather, or so goes one very common opinion, so when a pipe (installed by a poorly-skilled, poorly-paid worker) breaks at 3 AM and floods your basement, shorting out your power-wall and all your smart-house systems and starting a lithium ion battery fire, good luck fixing it all with an app. Edited December 1, 2024 by Ace-Garageguy TYPO 5 1
slusher Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 App is not need when my brother can do an alignment with a tape measure,and it was close when I bought tires it was checked…
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Checked for leaks I did, when I started occasionally smelling coolant.
LennyB Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Coolant sniffing is an acquired talent as most people mistake the sweet smell for their significant other seated next to them. 2
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Them babes I usedter go out with never smelled of antifreeze, but I probbly wooda been better off if they had. 3
LennyB Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Had I known then what I know now I would have skipped half of those “babes” and gone straight to the finish line. 2

Thedragsterdude Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 (edited) I want more model kits Edited December 1, 2024 by Thedragsterdude Added space when not needed
Falcon Ranchero Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Kits for Christmas would be real nice but I should build my 1962 Pontiac Catalina before I get any more.
A modeler named mike Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 (edited) More kits the merrier I'd be if I saw what's remaining on my want list under the Christmas tree. 🤞 Edited December 1, 2024 by A modeler named mike
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Tree rats (aka squirrels) haven't chewed much of the wiring in my cars' engine bays since I started feeding the feral cats. 1
JollySipper Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Cats of the domestic type are all kind of wild still, as they've never really been domesticated....... 3
NOBLNG Posted December 1, 2024 Author Posted December 1, 2024 Domesticated…..does your wife’s significant other fall into that category?
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Category: "domesticated" probably doesn't really apply to me, but I'm kinda handy to have around when everything goes sideways. 2 1
JollySipper Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 'Sideways' is a pretty good movie, it stars Thomas H Church from the show Wings......

LennyB Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Wings gave Wilbur and Orville a lot of headaches until they came up with the wind-tunnel.
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 "Tunnel motor" was the nickname for a series of EMD SD40T and SD45T locomotives that had their radiator air intakes relocated to the rear sides of the carbody, to pull in cooler air in tunnels and avoid overheating. https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?1,173774
slusher Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Overheating often happens with a bad water pump..
LennyB Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Pump wasn’t needed to refill steam locomotives, water was fed out of a tower via gravity.
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 Gravity didn't get water up in the tank, though.
Big John Posted December 2, 2024 Posted December 2, 2024 Though it is a key part of flushing the toilet! 2
NOBLNG Posted December 2, 2024 Author Posted December 2, 2024 (edited) Toilet paper should be kept in good supply. Edited December 2, 2024 by NOBLNG 1 1
A modeler named mike Posted December 2, 2024 Posted December 2, 2024 Supply of toilet paper is nice, but if the holder is empty, your 💩 out of luck. 1
LennyB Posted December 2, 2024 Posted December 2, 2024 Luck be a Lady tonight, Frankie is going out on the town, look out Hoboken. 1
