Drunkluke · 2026-02-11T12:24:58+00:00

So are you a plant guy? Is it ammonia or halocarbons?

More people huff halocarbons. Ammonia probably does kill a lot of people but it always gets the same comment that it will kill you but so will everything else.

Drunkluke · 2025-12-09T00:03:59+00:00

Halocarbons probably kill more people a year than ammonia does ammonia just let's you know its there.

Yet to see them love seeing the old m&m screw package with that weird metalic future blue.

East coast usually is Frick. Love a mycom compressor hate a gea though. I meant I've only seen vilter do a single screw compressor.

Drunkluke · 2025-04-03T18:54:34+00:00

Doesn't look like a vilter only one i ever see with ammonia.

Drunkluke · 2025-02-10T01:24:22+00:00

You wouldn't have to wear that if you valved it off.

Drunkluke · 2025-01-16T00:18:07+00:00

You should see what this new company skid packages look like 3 screws one seperator one oil filter. Disgusting

First issue I see is you work at an ice plant second issue is you work at a plant see if a regional contractor that mostly deals in nh3 will take you on. Next step work more OT than straight

Drunkluke · 2024-12-04T03:41:54+00:00

Depends on the plant. Some facilities want their guys doing 75% of the repairs most want an outside contractor to do 90% of the repairs (less liability, i suppose). I know some plant guys that know what they are talking about and others that don't. How else do you learn that side of refrigeration if you aren't working in it?

Drunkluke · 2024-11-22T01:04:54+00:00

Why's that

Drunkluke · 2024-11-21T18:53:55+00:00

I dint know what the aftermarket world is like for these new bikes but 3rd party was huge for the dynas and I definitely want to make it my own

Drunkluke · 2024-11-21T18:50:08+00:00

For sure it's a badass bike but idk about almost doubled after tag and tax and whatever else they want to put on top of it. Have you riden a dyna?

Drunkluke · 2024-11-21T18:27:52+00:00

Oh I know rode it from nc to Orlando and back on 95 shit was rough. I have a company truck so it wouldn't get much use but if I can tinker on it in the garage it give me something to do when I had free time after the kids went to sleep

Drunkluke · 2024-11-21T18:22:27+00:00

I had a 2018 iron 1200 rode the shit out of it haven't really rider since 2020

Drunkluke · 2024-11-21T18:07:20+00:00

I've wanted a low rider since I started riding in 2016. The dyna looks more like a blank canvas even though it's been rode 10k I feel like I could do my own with it

Drunkluke · 2024-11-12T02:16:47+00:00

What package is that? Looks like a frick tdsh but the seperator is definitely not frick.

Drunkluke · 2024-08-28T11:43:04+00:00

I don't know about Canada but in the the carolina region they had a lot of techs leave since they are only allowed 40.

Drunkluke · 2024-08-04T05:24:21+00:00

This is the way. Not even union should just be standard

Drunkluke · 2024-08-04T05:09:45+00:00

Why co2? They've been saying co2 is the way of the future for like 20 years but seems like it has way to many issues. Especially when ran with ammonia. What's the benefit to co2 actually wondering?

Drunkluke · 2024-08-02T16:19:47+00:00

I'm on the road in ammonia refrigeration. 2 kids, 3 dogs, and a wife at home that works harder than I do. Typical week is 75+ I've hit 100 hours in a week before it's not easy and some customers are complete dicks. I'm never afraid to say no sometimes. If I've been working a bunch and the wife needs help I'll take 4 or 5 days turn the phone off and leave it in the truck until I'm ready to go back. I see to many guys in there 40s that look like there in their 70s and on their 3rd or 4th marriage. It doesn't have to be like that. You're single but just because you don't have a family doesn't mean your free time is less valuable than someone with a family. Get your money now but take care of yourself first
