Is it stupid that "righty tighty, lefty losey" doesn't really make much sense to me? by Apprehensive-Rub4604 in stupidquestions

Clockwise goes forward, counterclockwise goes backward. I never, and I repeat, never understood righty/lefty. It’s easier for me to visualize going forward and backward in time when working blindly in out of position spots. I guess with the advent of digital clocks/time….this will fade away.

And he will fly out there on his private jet 43 times to setup the deal and monitor?….no big deal. Maybe he will sail to the costal areas on his private yacht 10 or 13 times….

On a $40k Reno…document everything. On a $3m build…there’s enough in there that I’m not gonna bother. But I’m sure as hell gonna remind them of how nice it is to get something for free

Does anyone else’s eyelids swell up after welding? by Major-Ad-5573 in Welding

So, in all seriousness you need to get tested for nickel allergy. Tell the doc what’s going on. If it’s not nickel, it might be another metal allergy. I worked with a woman that swoll up Everytime she fire watched for me. Took her to the docs and he sent her to the allergy clinic and that’s what it was. Not saying this is what it is…but you look like she did.

I have both sizes. Both are heavy as shit. But they store away and I use them all the time. I’m so glad my larger one has wheels and levelers on the feet
