There's a rush on aluminum siding?

Sold out at the hardware stores, I'm going with plywood and a generous coating of grease

Locked and loaded?

Cleaning them as I type. Any recommendation for load sequence for the 12 gauge - should I go No 8, No 4, buckshot and repeat

what is that?

Yeh. Not too many original ones lying around, but some seriously good kit cars to be had.

I wouldn’t go near a kit car, but there are some excellent factory built turnkey cars available from: Superformance (pictured), Kirkham and ERA.

5" of rain overnight, it's eased off but is still coming down, it's supposed to stop by midday.

My son's high school graduation is scheduled for this evening at the football stadium, I can't see that going ahead

Yes, NATO uses Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) rounds, it's a general agreement between the worlds military's (although the US is now going to use 9mm Jacketed Hollow Points (JHP) in their service pistkols).

Yep especially with the hollow point rounds that are used by the cops, the head squashes on impact and then makes a mess inside x( Wow that seems fairly barbaric? I thought hollow points were outlawed by Geneva Convention.(or whatever the relevant piece of law is) Seems not the case ... stopping po...

The choice there seems to be let him get away and everyone lives, or shoot him, and he probably dies. And as pointed out, they know who he is and can find him again surely.

Well I watched a Joe Rogan clip where Rogan claims that the guy asked the cops to get him an Uber and if they did that and had his car towed then fingers crossed the guy can wake up in the morning and possibly think about getting help for any substance problems he has. But I don't know if what Roga...

Judging by the number of “looters will be shot on sight” signs posted around our gated community during Hurricane Harvey, I think there was a firm view formed that looting is generally unacceptable.

So what's happened to Strava. I'm guessing they don't like me not paying them money so are dumbing things down to zero. I'm just too cheap I guess. Their business model of giving almost everything away for free seems to have been unsuccessful. Especially with all the extra lockdown log-ins. Probabl...

Been looking at a Kamado for a long time to accompany my enormous masonary grill.

Butterfly the leg, season and marinade for 24 hours in garlic and rosemary, charcoal grill rare. Delicious broke in a new treager smoker over the weekend with some brisket.

Is it specialist equipment or infrastructure? Swagelok supply both, so it's not an issue sourcing metric fittings. We use a shit load of 1/4" SS piping, but we purchased a huge portion of our equipment from a Finnish company, who deal.in metric. Can cause issues the odd time, bit it's mostly ok. In...

I presume you mean MW - Megawatt? rather than mW Kind of depends where in the world you are as power consumption per home can vary a lot, but you would expect somewhere between 350,000 and 600,000 homes I did, thanks.

Whole house system is the best vacuum with the minor complication being that you have to install the piping when you build the house

I used to use a Kurt Kinetic which was fine but I found the VP calc wasn’t very reliable and I wanted to be able to use ERG mode that smart trainers provide, which makes sites like TrainerRoad, Zwift, etc a better experience.

Pity I've no big boat these days, got about six gallons in the outboard tanks when I got back from the holidays. Probably end up putting that in the car which is full right now.

Yes I'm surprised it loses pressure, I was under the impression that the sealant would take care of any minor leaks. Before I put the sealant in I left the tires for an hour or two to allow the beads to set and the tires to settle into their actual shape. During this time they went down to about 20...

has anyone actually gone tubeless? Friends and family are raving about it but it seems a bit of a hassle and not easy to get right without the right tools and being of sound mind - both of which may be an issue. See my post above.

So what you guys are saying is I'm going to need new tires pretty soon. :) :nod: It's pretty much the first "upgrade" you get to make with any bike, as it's the number 1 wear item. Yep.
