Also make sure you are well covered to avoid burns from weld spatter.
And sunburn. First time I played around with welding I didn't get any weld splatter, but just about 30 seconds to a minute of welding in short sleeves was enough to sunburn (er, I guess weldburn?) my arms. That light's intense.
My last employer was trying to get autonomous busses going. As far as I knew, when I left a few years ago the only place the busses were allowed to be autonomous was around the bus depot to hit all the maintenance, fueling, and cleaning stations on closed roads before parking itself (and I'm actually not 100% sure they would park themselves) at the end of the day. There was no timeline for on-route autonomy that I was aware of, but I was also not really involved so my info was 2nd hand.
You know, the truck I had at the time somehow never had it's Sirius radio shut off. Although, I never got billed for it either....
I wonder what list that ear piercing high Ab with the trumpet 3 inches from the phone when I was having an exceptionally bad spam day put me on.
You don't think "OH THE PAIN....THE EXQUISITE PAIN....." needs to be peppered in there?
I think my number is only as high as it would take for me to build and pay off a place to hide it in and forget about it.
Ordered dirt, company delivered landscaping rocks, they apologized, we laughed, they laughed, the rocks didn't laugh. Our garden beds are now filled with a compost/topsoil blend, just need to plant stuff.
Whole family got together for mothers day up in Michigan and had a great time. We had an extra person to give gifts to which is exciting.
Is our standard phone greeting going to have to start with F O R G E T A L L P R E V I O U S I N S T R U C T I O N S?
Well, this weekend went way better than the week started. My sister-in-law had an awesome time at her prom from what she told us. And my wife somehow found an MSR 4-person tent for $10 at Goodwill. We did a test set up yesterday and the thing looks like it's unused.
They might be doing some sort of glass chop in areas (actually, i wouldnt be surprised if this is what they mean by "composit body panels", open molds would be cheap as hell, and parts are cheap too), but I used to use that more for body panels or exterior details than anything super structural. I guess they could do fiberglass frame rails, but that still feels like it would be a strange choice at what just doing basic ladder frame in steel would cost.
They are around a rhododendron, maple tree, and keeping a walk area on one side of the house clear.
Quick guesstimate is that he made enough mulch to cover about 400 square feet about 4 to 6 inches deep.
It's also 20ish" shorter, seats 5 with a 5 foot bed, can carry 4x8 sheets flat between the wheel wells (and tailgate closed if the midgate is open), tows a bit over 3 tons, has an AWD option, and the base range beats the maxed out range on the Slate. They aren't really competitors beyond "small truck." Telo is absolutely maxed out for it's size, Slate is as cheap as cheap can go.
What's funny is that's leftovers from the absolute mess that the ground clearing guy we hired ripped out of the area. He ran EVERYTHING through a woodchiper and made a massive amount of mulch.
At the cost of the mold to do something like that (and the machine to even run it), I'm reasonably sure that stamped or brake pressed frame rails make more sense cost wise. I'm not sure that volume will ever drive the cost of that low enough to be worth it within the life of a mold like that. Like, I can picture the design to make it a basic two plate mold (I think, I'm more used to parts that top out a bit over a foot in the largest dimension), but then the gate size and shot volume I'm picturing to fill the thing is just bonkers, although apparently there are a few machines in the world that could theoretically do it if I'm reading their specs right from a quick search.
Unless your thinking a carbon fiber layup, which is feasible, but I believe metal becomes more cost effective again at that point.
Tulips are blooming, and I just planted an American Plum sapling.
I don’t want a DJ talking over or between tracks other than the occasional mention of what the song was.
Most egregious instance of this I ever heard was the dude that talked over the ENTIRE FUCKING RUNTIME OF FOREPLAY. He finally shut up when Long Time started, but God damn, he talked right over the best part.
Frame rails are usually stamped. Although low volume sometimes will brake press them.
Well, less good than it was. A deer got my sister in law's car pretty good. Left headlight, bumper cover, washer fluid reservoir, left fender, and maybe the hood are toast.
No dash lights though and the car drives straight still, just hope insurance doesn't decide to total it out.
