And, now I see an order confirmation in my email! Huh... Thanks again Smile

Hey Dave, we should get together again sometime soon! Looks like the girl folk want to go to the event in Ashland again this August. I'll try to give you a heads up when Will and I will be near by T.H. He had a riot last year doing the dad/son thing all the way up the North Shore, and meeting you!

Wish we could, too, probably not coming that far north but one never knows...

You might do a precursory call to the Authorities so they have a heads up. Wink

Indeed, they probably need a camera that shoots at high frame rates, and a forensics team to figure out what that speeding flash silver bullet was... (as I am assuming, E, that you mean for me Wink )

I'd think one frame per minute would cover a speeding Westy, a bus length at a time. Laughing

And I'd never subject you to a Silver Bullet for two reasons:
1). You're too tough to be phased
2). PBR Rules

With the right FOV, perhaps two minutes..

We recently bought a very similar tool, and Yes, from Home Depot, and double Yes, for about what you said.

Looks like a good deal. After forty years of using a crummy crimper and swearing at myself for never figuring out how to crimp, this style was referred by a pair of electricians and now I'm onto swearing at myself for other stuff instead. Fabulous crimps, finally!

x2...great tool, lifetime quality. Occasionally pop up on eBay for $10 or less, but rarely in pristine condition...

Some yeti coolers are on sale from Woot. Fulfilled by Amazon.

There is an additional promo code "WOOTPROMO" for more $$$ off. This was automatically added to the Roadie I bought. For me, the roadie was $125 shipped.

https://slickdeals.net/f/13212190-yeti-coolers-30-off-139-99

Note: Please don't turn this in a Yeti vs Rtic vs Ozark trail debate.

Harbor Freight has powder-coating systems (Item 94244) on sale for $55, if you use 20% off coupon code 65365401, and they have pretty darn good reviews. How many things can you powder coat on a Vanagon, right? ZILLIONS!!

Breaks my heart that I cannot order one, as they don't take credit cards with a postal code address rather than a zip code. :,(

Yes, Amazoned out has a very fast re-pricing model. If someone posts on a forum and people start buying, they jack the price up right away...

BTW, I ordered one at the original cheaper price but it still has not arrived.
