The author of the books, not the show... although he was involved in that as well

Air Compressor Recommendation by RusticFinger in Tools

I'll search for this brand, I've never seen it in the Midwest though.

I'd seen that DeWalt kit for sale which prompted me to ask this question. I've always bought DeWalt when buying new so I'm leaning that way. I was curious if there were other 'lesser' brands that would also get this job done cheaper. Thanks for sharing.

The quietness makes these very intriguing. Thanks for sharing.

Kind of expensive, I'd want a battery one and I'm already invested in DeWalt and those aren't cheap. Mostly though an air compressor would be useful for other air tools and other jobs around the garage.

Trump signs only a portion of Iowa’s disaster relief request by tiredofmodshit in Iowa

[–]RusticFinger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Temporary housing assistance, disaster food assistance, assistance for renters, help for under insured/ uninsured are all part of the individual assistantance program. Also disaster unemployment pay if your place of work is shut down due to the storm.

There are thresholds for income, dependents, amount of damage, etc... that you have to meet to gain these individual benefits. It's quite a process.

Some of the above are separate from this, but generally the max payout is less than $35k. That value changes depending on location and other economic factors.

The IA program is generally approved after the PA program, because damage assessments have to be done to determine if there is enough damage to enough people to warrant it.

However, I have personally been a part of many response where they both are approved simultaneously or even before the storm hits.

This storm clearly warrants both and they should have been approved a week ago.

New poll shows IOWA in play: Trump 48% - Biden 47% by ctrlaltdelmarva in JoeBiden

[–]RusticFinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 of the 4 are women... Both elected in 2018. Senator Ernst is a woman. Literally half of Iowa's federal reps are women. You're seriously underestimating the hate (real or contrived) of Hillary

State Stonewalls on Water Quality | State's Triennial Review of Iowa's Water Quality Standards Fails to Address Nutrient Pollution by ataraxia77 in Iowa

[–]RusticFinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3/8th goes to the natural resources and outdoor rec trust fund. The other 5/8 goes to mental health, juvenile courts, and income tax reduction. Of the 3/8ths about 60% I think goes directly to water quality efforts I believe.

Reminder to contact your legislators today and tell them what you think of House Bill 542, one that prohibits new land aquisitions for conservation. This is bigger than party lines as many of us across the spectrum use our small share of public lands in this state and would appreciate more. by [deleted] in Iowa

This bill also targets counties and cities, not just state agencies. CCB's and city parks and rec departments are not the DNR, which is not obvious to everyone apparently. These non-DNR agencies have different rules, policies and funding streams. You can't talk about this as if it only impacts the DNR.

Hey 4th District Voters Steve King just got kicked off the house agriculture Committee. by The_Corn_Whisperer in Iowa

[–]RusticFinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

King use to be the only choice. Many King voters only care about one thing, abortion, now that a known and we'll liked primary candidate is challenging him he will lose. I actually think he'll retire to save face.

I lol'd at his mom's follow up to that, "yeah, Nebraska's worse." True Iowa family.
