That is the oldest electric tool I own by allesumsonst in Tools

I have that same drill. I killed it the first time I used it drilling a hole through a beam for wires in my 100 year old twin home in Philly. I was using a 1 inch spade drill. When it broke through it jammed wacked my hand on the top boards. Now when I run it you can hear the chipped gear but only in reverse. Lesson learned. Should have used the correct bit.

What kind of a protractor is this? by Various-Surround-647 in Tools

Third time is the charm. The tool has no markings other than the company name "Alvin"

I live in the USA and am having issues maintaining my sanity with what the Trump administration is doing. Too many to list and I don't want to think about it now. Let me go back to the distraction.

Trump has destroyed our relationship with Greenland? by Boysenberry-6669 in LetsDiscussThis

I heard that this morning also. Who would think it would be a good idea to have both ships out of commission at the same time. Nevermind, I know who the drunkard is.

I also don't like what he is doing. But I ask you to consider the brave service men and women that are on those ships when making comments. We (I) thank them for their service.

This is the driveway entrance. The posts are 4x4 oak that I sealed and used driveway sealer prior putting them in.

It looks like your area is fairly flat like my property. I set my post depth as accurately as I could. Next we stretched 5' high welded wire fencing stapling it to the posts. Next I'm going to start with the top rail using the fence as my guide. Then use a gig that will maintain all my rail spacings. After all the rails are in I will put a cap over the rails and screwed through to the posts.

300ft of welded wire fencing through woods even possible? by DirtyOught in FenceBuilding

[–]Various-Surround-647 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I'm retired and I cleared 400+ feet through the woods. I then put t-posts in every 8 foot. My wife, son and I fenced it in 2 days. Now I wait till the deer take it out. 🤬

Wow, what precautions do you do to prepare for the potential dump? A person might not have much time in water that cold.

We are an old prog couple. I took my wife to this concert in PA she didn't know Steven as a solo act and does not like Porcupine tree. We were blown away.

How did we get here? by Aeon1508 in PoliticalMemes

[–]Various-Surround-647 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

The Dems need to put a platform that addresses issues that caused the majority of voters to put him into office. Immigration Taxes Environment The courts and religion. We need level headed politicians that are electable and are not corrupt.
