Says up to 5" of rain late in the day which is when it's going to 19. I can hear the crack of limbs coming off trees already. Somone...

    3d Printing and the Future of Piracy

    I own a mill and lathe. I've done a lot of gunsmithing. The only thing that prevents someone from ordering a mill and lathe and making a new good as new firearm is it gets tricky doing rifeling. But it can be done. Just more work than 3d printing, but it also doesn't require something else like...

    Home buying thread

    My house is paid for and has been for a long time. Peace of mind basically. If I were to lose my job at some point along the way my options were very limited without drastic downsizing. To sell or move all my stuff in my shop would get expensive moving it or losing the stuff, like mills, lathe...

None of my motherboards lookes near that nice. I went to a small computer place to have them build...

    No it's just like it sounds. You rarely see them in drag vehicles. Instead of a torque convertor that allows you to stop and it idle while in drive you have a cluth. You need to step on the clutch when you stop or the engine dies. But once you start moving you don't need to clutch when the auto...

    I didn't either, there was no place that required it nearby. The only place that had it growing up was a few streets downtown around the capital. Out where people lived, not so much. Had a manual transmission drivers ed car at 14. Nowdays it's the best theft deterent your car can have.
