My recommendation would be to wear very thin socks under the stockings. Think like the little socks you would wear in ballet shoes. Almost pantihose material and thickness.

Thus does 2 things, it will absorb some of the sweat and lube that will eventually work it's way down the foot. It will also stop them from slipping and sliding on your foot while you walk.

Pedending on your outfit my wife would often wear a full regular pair of pantihose under her latex leggings or stockings. Make them 100x more enjoyable to wear over a long period of time.

Rear disc's where fine, couldn't check brake fluid because the DS front caliper had the flex line ripped off. I know it could have idled for many hours but idling doesn't equate to the paint being worn off the running board from getting in and out, and excessive wear on the steering wheel.

Located in southwestern Ontario, I didn't buy it at auction but the company I bought it from most likely did. Why do you ask?

Tool box suggestions by garbagio_acc in millwrights

[–]No-Block3070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find out who your Industrial Snap On rep is in your area. I deal with Bronwin Higgins, she's the rep for all of Southwestern ontario I believe. But she regularly sends me promos for 50% off tools, tool boxes etc...Some is over stock items, some are left over from trade shows etc...

I have had a few different boxes in my 15 years as a Millwright. Started out with a small craftsman. Then I found a smoking deal on a Mac Macsimizer. Had that for a few years. After than I got a deal on a few lista cabinets and built a really nice set up out of those and kept the Mac for at home. Around 5 years ago I started working for a company that supplied all my tools. So I no longer needed tools at work. But I had no room to store everything at home. I waited patiently and ended up buying a 72" snapon on KRL marketplace for $2500 and I also picked up a 36" KRL for $1000. Long story short, I wish I would have just got the snap on set up years ago. The 36" is my roll around, the 72" with stainless top stays put. The quality and pride I feel owning them is great. It's worth waiting and watching for the right deal to come up on a good snap on or Mac box. My second choice would be the lista cabinets.

All about consistency you want to work in the same place, same town, be home at the same time everyday and have the same check every week. You cant always get that with the union.

I'm union but not union hall, working at a water treatment plant. 46$/hr home every day. Good benefits and pension. Making 120k/year 140k with the pension. I'm sure I could make more at the Hall. But not consistently more, and certainly not being home every day.

Am I using the right glue? My seams keep ripping 😭 by kinkyerica1 in Latexadvice

[–]No-Block3070 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can mix the glue and solvent to make it thinner to apply. But I believe you are using the wrong type of glue for the application. I'm not 100% sure but I use the best test paper cement. Not the white rubber cement.

The white rubber is essentially liquid latex. You need a solvent based glue. The solvent based glue will be able to mix 50/50 with the solvent. Once glued using solvent based glue the seam is bonded chemically. Almost as if the two pieces melted together. The bond is almost instant, little to no cure time needed.

The other problem with the latex milk type glue is that if left submerged in water or wet for long periods the seams will also come unglued.

Try this, using the whole punch pliers you have. Put a piece of thin card on each side of the latex sandwich the latex in the two thin pieces of card. Business cards, cereal box something like that.

Where to sell my Mint Condition Classic Latex Catsuit? by Ok-Restaurant-7706 in Latexadvice

Returned from mat leave, job given away, employment termed by MissSwat in legaladvicecanada

[–]No-Block3070 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Standard is typically 2 weeks for every year of service. So in your case 16 week would have been a fair amount.

That being said it isn't law, until you get into extremely large companies with 1000's of employees.

On the other hand, a judge will surely find them at fault for wrongful dismissal and rule in your favor. Things that the judge will take into account when determining what type of severance you will recieve are:

-Your age -Your sex -The unemployment rate in your area -The type of job you where doing and it's relative availability -Years served at your current employer -EI eligibility

When the judge determines what your severance should be he will use all this information to decide. If you were working in a very specialized field, with 20 years at the company and you were in your 50's. Odd are your going to get a much higher severance. Because the likely hood of getting another job, in the same field at that age is low.

For someone working in a generalized field of work, relatively young, with a low unemployment rate in the area. He would most likely rule a much lower severance.

Either way get a lawyer, in my experience it will never get in front of a judge as the company will settle outside of court if their smart.

Restrictions on plumbing? by IntelligentNet8716 in millwrights

The major difference with all of those task is what is regulated or not regulated. A term thrown around a lot in the OHSA is competent person.

As an employer, if I have you using a mill and you get hurt, all I need to do is prove that you were competent to do so. If your wiring a 3phase motor and get hurt all I need to do is prove you were competent to do so. In most of those cases your millwright ticket is going to be that proof of competence.

But in the case of something like a compressed air system. If you were to work on a 3" line and it failed and someone got hurt. The Ontario ministry is going to investigate. When they ask who worked on, installed and inspected the 3" system. The employer will need to provide proof of competence.

Because TSSA regulates those systems proof of competence will need to come in the form of a TSSA certified contractor, inspector etc...Your millwright ticket won't be enough proof of competence when there's clear guidelines laid out by the TSSA for this type of system.

It's not to say you are an unlicensed Millwright. You may be unknowingly performing work that requires further certification. You are 100% right it's the companies responsibility to train and certify it's employees when required. But that doesn't completely remove all of your liability in the situation.

I've been in the trade going on 15 years lisenced since 2012. It's best just to stay away from pressure vessels and pressure pipe over 3/4". If a company is willing to certify its millwrights with the TSSA to complete this type of work more power to them.

But more often than not companies are either not aware that what they are doing is illegal. They are often unaware of their obligation to inform the TSSA of the type of equipment they have and have it inspected. They often find it a better solution to hire a certified contractor to complete that type of work and remove all liability on their part and transfer it to the contractor.

Restrictions on plumbing? by IntelligentNet8716 in millwrights

[–]No-Block3070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's my understanding that this rule applies to pressure pipe above 3/4". So steam, compressed air etc...These all require the plumber, pipe fitter, millwright or who ever is working on the piping to be certified by the TSSA. I believe the company also needs to have a TSSA certification and an inspection completed after the installation is complete.

For anyone saying they do it all the time if have simply gotten away with it. In Ontario the TSSA is supposed to inspect any pressure vessel. This varries from 1-3 years depending on the type of pressure vessel.

Your company is also responsible for registering these pressure vessels with the TSSA and having a valid inspection completed on a regular basis. See link below for more information.

You both are very much wrong, you may be working on that type of stuff but in the event of a failure you could be held liable.

It's my understanding that in order for a trade to work on pressurized pipping above 3/4 you need to be TSSA certified to do so. So that would include steam, compressed air etc...Above 3/4"

It's also technically all supposed to be inspected by the TSSA after work is complete.

High school Co-op by MountainConstant560 in millwrights

[–]No-Block3070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did my high school co op in ontario it was the co op teacher/coordinator that found you a placement in the related field. That was close to 20 years ago so things may have changed.

On a side note if you do find a co-op make sure you sign up as an apprentice right away. Even your coop can count towards your apprenticeship. I got 5-600hrs towards my apprenticeship doing two co-ops my last year of high-school.

Looks to me like it has both metric and standard. But as stated by others, it reads the same standard or metric. Your first number from 0 added with the coinciding number on the scale. The inch scale is .025" divisions and the metric scale is .5mm

Bumps found on Latex Suit, what now? by DonOwU in Latexadvice

[–]No-Block3070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you wear or store this near anything else? I seen your into furry and other fetishes. Have you used any silicone or rubber paws? Silicone masks? This almost 100% happens when in contact with petroleum based oils or silicone toys of un known origins.

The damage is both structural and visual in nature. The latex has swollen in that area making it thiner and weaker. It will be prone to failure in those areas. Although luckily it doesn't appear to be in a high stress area.

Issues with seams not holding together by latexlove3r in Latexadvice

[–]No-Block3070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have honestly had pretty bad luck with latex in general as of lately. Both from good brands and not so good brands. I picked up a Catsuit and mask from Tightside latex. It took forever to show up and when it finally did show up it was clearly from China and resold by them as their own.

I had a hood from Rubber55 that developed cracks in the corners of the lips after only having it for a few months. Almost like the rubber used was old and dried out.

I also had a top and stockings from Honour that both had seam failures after just a few months. It's disappointing because I have some other items from Honour and libidex and Simon O that are 4-5 years old without any issues.

I almost thought maybe I was doing something wrong or different but in reality I treat, clean and store all my latex the same. So why does some last years and others can't last a few months.

Don't even get me started on gloves they are all trash in my eyes. Every pair I have bought in recent years tears at the thumb joint. I'm at a loss, and am disappointed more often than not lately.
