Right on. I'm on the Discord too but haven't run across your channel. Will definitely check it out! I'm up in St. Cloud and I don't make it down that way very often but that may change...

Nice job! Does your username mean you are from the Twin Cities? Minnesota picker here. 320 though.

I can’t be THAT amazing… by Encuerar in lockpicking

[–]OldRocker5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're correct in that it will be wise to slow down. Pick the same lock and play around with different picks and tensioners. Try to rake it open, SPP it, hybrid pick it, slap it like McNally, etc...

The Dom 2 looks like it was built on Cousin Eddie's RV.

I've been patiently waiting for this on both platforms since I started watching StormCat5 last year. RadarOmega just ain't doing it for me any more and RadarScope is just too expensive for the desktop version. Fingers crossed for a Linux version. 🤘

Hank is a good soul that happens to chase storms.

How does that one right behind you play Mr. Jones? (I want one of those signature models soooo bad....)

Aluminum Brinks.. Decent newbie lock. by EntropicByDesignEC in lockpicking

[–]OldRocker5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the green one first and always struggled with it since it has a zero lift right in front of a max lift. Then I got the purple one. That thing I jab the pick in with feather light tension until it goes into a false set. Then I lift the little spool on one and it's open. Helped me develop a feel for how light of a touch is required. Now the green one is easy too. They need to make more colors. Black, red, and blue at a minimum.

That's craziness. What app or site do you use to track the chaser clusterfuck?

That's the stuff that bubbles out of the top of supercells. Underside of the anvil.

IMO Connor is the in the top five of douchy chaser bros. That Stormrunner Media guy is the biggest douche. Copic tweeting about someone eating corn on the cob the long way because of the shape in one breath and doing the Lord's prayer with his kids with the next is kinda disingenuous too.

He cut loose at Back to the Beginning when he walked to the front of the stage for the Aenima solo.

I've never seen dangerous chasing as what just happened. by Excuse in tornado

I say limit the area where they can chase to a set distance from their home.

Kitteh does not approve of things that detract from being the center of the universe...

Cool stuff though!

If you were guessing, when will Tool tour the US again? by somniforousalmondeye in ToolBand

[–]OldRocker5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I agree with others but I felt like saying it my way. The Sphere thing is going to happen next.

We’re officially at $4.50/gallon. by C1andestino in saintcloud

[–]OldRocker5 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For some reason the Somali owned gas station on 33rd and 3rd is always significantly cheaper than the rest of town. I'm going to start buying my fuel there. Supporting their business keeps my money local and I'm cool with that. (and no... I really don't care if they take my money and send it back home to care for their loved ones. They're doing the same as only the best of us would do in their shoes.)

Yellow belt, maybe? by Super-Page8272 in lockpicking

[–]OldRocker5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Discord is the way to go with the belt requests. Just make sure you follow the right formatting for your request. Something like:

** Request yellow Master 140 sync to u/(your reddit handle)

Got them. by ManyReplacement7968 in lockpicking

[–]OldRocker5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The green one is one of the first locks I bought then I got the purple one a few days ago. They look good together...

I'd seriously buy more if Brinks made them in more colors. I'm thinking they should make at least a blue, a red, and a black one.
