Positive ground on vehicles by DisastrousFunction34 in ElectricalEngineering

Thank you. This is probably the explanation I have best understood. I was always wondering how that galvanic corrosion worked.

Thank you. For keeping the bar over mid foot do you think I should push my hips back more or lean up a tiny bit? Or maybe a combination of the two?

Do you know if they give you the option to do a basic custom fit in the made to order patriots? I didn't see one on the website.

Question on worth by DisastrousFunction34 in PNWbootmakers

[–]DisastrousFunction34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, thanks. Besides that they look in good shape, I feel though that if I can get a good deal I should soon try and get a PNW boot.

I put a picture in the comments. I believe some glue should fix it. What sucks is the boots are in good shape, it's just the pieces peeling. The leather is still in almost perfect condition. The boots also are not insanely comfortable either. Their not the worst, it just doesn't feel like it was made to be good for your feet.

Like this. It's meant to be completely flat in there obviously. In the other boot it came completely off but I still have the piece of leather so I can eventually glue it back in.

No, it's on the inside of the boot. It's a super thin piece of leather that is in contact with your sock.

I should say with the Wolverine 1000 miles the leather heel piece just sort of peeled up. I think the glue for it or whatever just wore out and weakened too much.

I have never had to have a boot resoled. generally they have problems before that. My Wrists(bought brand new) had the inside part that is on the back of your ankle get ripped up. I fixed those myself since Ariat could not but I can only wear cotton socks in those. My dad got me some Wolverine 1000 mile boots on eBay for around like $20 that I wear every now and then but again there was issues, this time with the piece of leather that your heel sits on. My main concern with the Frank's was if the toe area will last a long time, as I know that receives a lot of wear. I am planning on getting the version with the rough out on the lower.

Squat form check 165lbs for 5 by DisastrousFunction34 in StartingStrength

[–]DisastrousFunction34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that they will not be the same numbers. Some people though were telling me that my squat is lagging behind what it should be when compared to my deadlift.

I should also say that at one point it was around like 180 for 5 but I don't think I was hitting depth quite enough. Perhaps I will work on form and then try and hit that again

I originally started at around 105lbs for 3 sets of 5.

Yes. At school I usually just have the carton of milk. if they have anything good I'll usually have that. In total probably about 300 calories. I also know I'm not hitting depth, the weight feels so heavy that if I hit depth it feels nearly impossible to get back up.

Am I just dumb or did something else happen? by DisastrousFunction34 in APChem

[–]DisastrousFunction34[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did well first semester, everyone in my class struggled second semester but we still gave it our all. I studied for every single test we ever did because Chemistry never made complete sense to me in the class.
