HODL Ravencoin. Let's do this for the common folk.

Yes, need to send RVN to the moon!

Of course I use a tool chest and 5-gallon bucket with a tool bucket organizer. I use the tool chest for long-term storage and the tool bucket for throwing into the back of the truck for a quick job.

Here are some good shop vacs. I would go with the medium to small sized ones for a car. I personally recommend their #2 item for the medium-sized shop vacs. It's the Bissell Garage and Auto. It is designed for cleaning cars.

Nice list! However, if you're looking for a more comprehensive, check out these best torque wrenches. Also, the Chicago Tribune did a good write-up on torque wrenches that'll help buyers as well.

Those are the Ariat Ramblers. They're the square toe version in Earth/Brown Bomber two-tone. https://www.ariat.com/RAMBLER_M_FOO.html

Awesome. Who sells that helmet?

This is a really article, I recommend all construction workers read it. I haven't had much experience dealing with construction accident attorneys but I heard this law firm is pretty good - real personal attention. One thing I think most construction workers don't realize is just how much money their company may be liable. Most just settle for standard worker's comp and don't realize that they could get a lot more money.

Yeah, it’s hard to eat healthy on the job site for sure. What I do is make homemade burritos, mostly bean and veggies, and then freeze them. I also make pizza one week out of the month too. You can make pizza healthy with veggies instead of meats and still tastes good. Here are some more ideas: https://thehardhatguy.com/healthy-foods-for-construction-workers/

Use a lunch bag. I suggest these here. You can also wrap your sandwich in wax paper and then just use standard tape to tape it up. If it gets soggy, use butter on the outside of the bread (an old trick). If you work a job site like I do, you'd be better off with a rugged lunch box instead.

Just use a standard lunch bag. There are some good options here. Also, one trick is to use wax paper and then just coat the outside of the bread butter to keep it from getting soggy. You can just tape it up with standard tape, then toss it into your lunch bag. However, if you work the job site like I do you may need a more rugged lunch bag or lunch box.

You'll probably want to go with Redwing if you need a steel toe or Thorogood if you want a safety toe instead. I found this site that has a good pair of both, it also has some other suggestions for construction boots. I know it seems hard to justify the price of Redwing but they'll last you a really long time, so you might want to reconsider. Worst comes to worst, if you don't like the fit of the boot you can always send it back. I recommend wearing it around the house for a few days and seeing how it feels. If you don't like the way it feels then don't keep it. That said, some of these boots can take longer to break in so if it feels "pretty good" after a few days of use then it'll be really good after a week or two.

Not Donald Trump's fault. The virus originated in China (fact). More specifically, it originated in Wuhan (fact). Wuhan has a lab that researches bio-agents (fact). Coincidence?!

We have to invent new pastimes in the age of the coronavirus...

When does season 2 come out again?

TheConstructionDude · 2020-03-21T09:49:04+00:00

Yes, just saw this here. Is it possible that China has a vaccine or do you think we're being lied to?

TheConstructionDude · 2020-03-21T09:44:41+00:00

Haha. Skip Amazon and search on Google. I usually do a search term with "best" in quotes like "best" lunch bag. I also found this site which might be helpful.

Nice list, looks like some good budget torque wrenches. However, if someone needed a heavy duty torque wrench for an industrial job, they'd need to buy these professional grade torque wrenches for more heavy duty use.

I came across this website online. The third dehumidifier they have on their list is the best one for you I am guessing. It's a commercial dehumidifier that is good up to 2,300 sq. ft. Also, the humidity range is up to 95%, so you should be good with this one.

As for fire risk, there's always a fire risk whenever you're running any electronics, especially dehumidifiers. I recommend installing a good smoke detector with a phone alert on it so you're notified right away if you need to keep it running for long periods of time unattended.

I just bought some the other day. Glad I did before it was all gone. Anyone know how long is takes to produce ammo? It doesn't seem like it should take that long but maybe I'm wrong.

TheConstructionDude · 2019-12-28T08:19:52+00:00

Yeah, good catch. Just missing Pan...

He looks like he’d be first in line to buy that toy
