  2. @Edna There should be a way to do that in your personal settings.... Let me look...
  3. Here is what I predict. Hillery will die, Sanders will want to be the new DN. Michel Obama will replace Hillery as the DN. Trump will loose and we have two more Obama Terms.
  4. Don't get me wrong they are very good at what they do. What scares me is when I go to a Home owner that thinks he knows how to do finish work. They are the ones that you need to watch out for doing this. They do not look out for the chute moving around. The other is the forms they try and make. I have seen a few blow out. They don't realize how heavy wet cement is. and Pow. the side of the blows out... This was one of those jobs. LOL Things like what you do, yeah you need the certs and training. I drove Semi for 13 years with a 53" Trailer and Conventional Tractor doing pick-ups and deliveries in Chicago. I got to they point where the harder it was to get into made want to get in there that much more. It was a few days ago I did a job where I had some left over cement. He ask if I could take it to his neighbors, I said sure... They were not sure I could get my truck in though... I said "let me look..." Well it was a tough one but I got in there. His wife came out and complemented me on my driving skill. He handed my a $100 tip. He said it was worth it seeing me just pop that truck in where he needed it. LOL It told him I cut my teeth on driving in Chicago. There it was Moving Cars, Poles and Buildings... Out here it just Trees and Moving Deer. LOL
  5. That's why I like working where I do. Most of what we do are Pole Barns and Driveways. I did a wall for this company a couple weeks ago where I had to wear a hard hat just to wash out. LOL They were stiff and not friendly. The contractors I work with mostly are locals and just like jamming and joking around as they work.. This was a house I did not long ago... I had to take some pics of how close I was to the house.
  6. Had to help on a big job today. My boss rented me out to a company that needed more trucks to do a job. This was a total of 380 yards of cement. It is a going to be a horse barn. We had two trucks dumping at once onto a conveyor belt truck. That boom you see in the distance it where it was being poured. I finally got home at 10pm :P Long day.
  7. I'm sorry, I was close to losing it and it takes a lot for that to happen. I don't see it happening again for a long time. You just can't keep someone like me down for long and damn glad it is over.
  8. I'm humbled by the support and well wishes. It just goes to show how much of a family this forum is.
  9. Thanks Adersarious1. I see your making your own PBFB....
  10. I'm glad to be back! I really missed the folks here! I can't even count the times I came up here to computer and got ready to explain what was going on and had to intervene again or call the cops. I'm just glad it is over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. Oh what a couple months this has been. I'm sorry about the order Jeff I sent you a PM and will be getting with you and how to make it up to you. To make a very long story some what sort, I had some bad family issues I was dealing with. My stepson was returned from placement. He had been in placement for almost 4 years because of his violent behavior. He was kick out of every placement he was put into because he refused to do the programs offered and his viotent behavior. The state through up their hands and sent home. We pleaded in court that he was not ready, if ever ready to live in a normal setting. So, they sent him home. We had the cops here almost every day since he was returned. It took his doing excessive damage and assaulting his Mom to finally get him placed in Juvy and not back in residential treatment. As Cany said my Lab was trashed during all this and had over $2000 damage done to my home. The problem child is now in Juvy and will not ever come back. I know I sound a little cold but, if you had lived what I lived trough with him, you would be too. During all this I had a possible Angina attack. I'm having testing done to find out if there is a more serious issue going on or if it was just all stress related. So far, the tests are showing that is was stress related as everything is coming back negative. My computer is on almost all the time. I am not always at the Keyboard though. I would get maybe 5 min a day on it tops during this crisis. Most times I was just rebooting it. I have over 2000 emails I'm sorting through and have yet to answer any of them. I have officially closed the store as well. I could not keep up with any orders and with FDA crap I just saw the writing on the wall for that. Thank you everyone for your concern and Yes you will be seeing more of me now as I get things back in order. I let a couple people down because of this issue and feel horrible about it. I do plan on trying to make it right as best I can, but I know I have lost some trust over this. I'm here to say, I will do what needs done and will be back to my normal self soon.
  12. I know I have been really busy this summer. I have more stuff going on than I expected. But, Bring it on!
  13. I have had 2 VAMO 5 1.2ohm is the cut off for ohms. The only problem I had with both my VAMOS is the small button on the left side. They have both lost the clickieness of the button and will not hold the setting just a slight touch will now change the settings.
  14. I recommend at least graduated cylinders and syringes. Pipettes suck for measuring, but can come in handy for adding small amounts to graduated cylinders. Just my 2 cents.
  15. What I like about using multiple tanks is I can have the coil that is best for the juice that I'm using in that tank. Not every juice works (tastes good) with the same coil build.
  16. I had a job today that was about 3 miles down this two track today. LOL The home owners son that drives a Redi-Mix truck in a city said that it was not possible to get one to his cabin. I told him to tell his son that us hillbillies can get our trucks in anywhere. LOL It was a nice ride out in the sticks. This is just the strait part and it turn several times.
  17. ??? I'm confused... LMAO Good deal on coils though.
  18. That is the best thing about DIY, you know exactly what is going into it!
  19. You are very welcome Squid.
  20. Spent Saturday rebuilding my horseshoe pit. Before it was just two stakes in the ground. It was root bound and the shoes would bounce like hitting a trampoline. LOL Saw a lot crazy ringers. LOL Saturday was a day off and my boss let me take the Bucket loader home with a bucket of sand for my pit and the swing set. (About 2 yrds of sand for $20) I'm only 2 1/2 miles away so I could just drive the loader to the house. Anyway here is the result.
  21. LOL Whats you talking about Willis?
  22. That would depend on what Tank you are using on the sidewinder battery. The sidewinder is a battery not a tank. There are a lot of tanks that you can use with it. Can you post the name of the tank or picture?
