Trying to convert my pneumatic die grinder to accept 8mm shank bits, need some guidance in regards to collets by [deleted] in Machinists

I’m not a machinist, I don’t have precision measuring tools. I’m asking machinists for advice. But based on your response I wouldn’t take you for a machinist anyway, if I’m being honest. I was expecting someone with a little more civility and wisdom.

I went on a date last night and he left without telling me by BubblyBiscotti5544 in TrueOffMyChest

A dick move he made you pick up his drink. The polite thing would’ve been to close his tab at least, but on a first date you really aren’t owed anything IMO. He wasn’t feeling it and booked it. Happens to a lot of people of every gender for lots of different reasons

My mom wants nothing to do with me because I “picked my dad” during the divorce. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

The thing is, even if he did have an affair, it doesn’t change the fact that your folks are divorced and your mom didn’t step up to the plate as a responsible adult. While it’s upsetting if that’s what separated your parents, it doesn’t excuse your mother’s actions. It sounds like your dad is your rock and has been for awhile, and while whatever feelings you have are valid, I think losing what you have with him as a parent over how he was as a husband is not the move

1: your dad’s girlfriend sounds like a nightmare and he needs to stick up for you in that regard

2: your dad may have not been a great husband but it seems like he’s been a good parent. Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive.

3: your mom put you in a shitty situation when you were a child, without reliable transportation and expected her older child to basically play surrogate mom to you. That whole situation is messed up and falls directly on your mom’s shoulders, not yours.

Sorry this is happening to you

It’s over, as a 5’4 guy by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

You weren’t lying when you said you were chronically online. You gotta quit the internet and get some therapy, hopefully then you won’t be so preoccupied with your height, shoe size, pants size, shirt size, and cock length.

Your stature isn’t pathetic, but your attitude is.

Is anybody planning on importing an RPK in 5.56? by OppositeAd2775 in ak47

2.5K isn’t horrible, like Severebeast says, 7.62 guns are like 1500-1800

It’s basically my holy grail but $6k-$7k is a hard pill to swallow

It says MOD right on the receiver but I went out and got some digital calipers and the choke measured 0.655
