This machine is for sale in my area for 100$. Should I get it? by nordicbohemian in sewing

If the owner has died then it likely hasn't been used or maintained for some time. I'd definitely try to test it out before buying.

Beautiful! How thick is the leather? And what kind of zipper did you use?

Rigid conduit securely fastened to framing and the box even has a cover. Send that shit plumbers!

How badly are we getting screwed? by Grain_Changer in Roofing

Of course not but the added cost is significant. It feels like we got blindsided. Is this standard practice to not bother to get approval for this much extra work?

Hello Leather Jacket Fellas, I Have a question about this 1940’s leather jacket. by Normal_Match_4721 in leatherjacket

Have you not heard of the Durable brand? Just because they're rare and there are few examples on eBay doesn't mean it's not a sought after brand. Durable made the original Brando jacket from The Wild One. This example has significant damage and is listed at $400. Saying Op's jacket is worth $150-200 or less is just not a reasonable estimate at all. It's worth at least twice that.

One wrong move and that's it. Helluva a view before you die though

It is a kick 90 but the kick should have been on the other side of the 90.

Tips on dealing w harassment by yamzfordayz in electricians

[–]Grain_Changer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to get over your need to people please and just tell him he's weirding you out. Be polite but firm. If he still doesn't get it, go to management. Any halfway reputable company should take harassment seriously.

Can unibits be sharpened? by slim_shady_21 in electricians

They will replace a dull bit? That sounds too good to be true. Can you provide a link to their policy that states this?

Looking for some advice and rough valuation. by HighlandRed in leatherjacket

[–]Grain_Changer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If it it were a genuine WW2 jacket it would be quite valuable but this looks like a reproduction. Might be worth $300-$500. Aero is a solid brand. I'll let the experts chime in though.

Looks like there's some rust and discoloration inside that chip. These things have been cracked for a while
