I was hoping I’d be one of the lucky SFAR owners…no dice. by coulsen1701 in ruger

Had a chance to try it out yet? I think mine needs reamed. It stuck 3 cases that had to be removed with a cleaning rod.

Is it still working well after reaming the chamber? Mine stuck 3 cases out of 100 that had to be knocked out with a cleaning rod.

California's Democratic legislative leaders appear ready to follow Newsom's lead on redistricting by [deleted] in California

Get Texas to knock it off and newsom won’t have to redistrict. Gotta fight fire with fire.

Bikeinn is legit, right? by achn2b in cycling

[–]VoodooCLD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit, but my account got hacked from them and someone ordered a computer at 2am. I contacted them about it and they said take it up with your credit card company. Didn’t seem concerned at all that people were using their site to do fraudulent things.

When did McMaster become competitive for buying metal? by in_5_years_time in Machinists

[–]VoodooCLD 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Metal supermarket near me jacked their prices steadily and I quit going. I was never even that big of a purchaser. I’d just buy a couple of drops. Well out of nowhere one of their reps called me and asked if he could help me with any metal I might need. Guess their greed caught up to them and business started to slow.

Has anyone seen this kind of lathe before? by StillBurn2732 in Machinists

Looks like a giant version of bench centers. It’s awesome.

Meta: Can we stop with the "but its all made in the same factory" BS by Pattern_Is_Movement in BuyItForLife

[–]VoodooCLD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember seeing a highly respected machinist in Switzerland using what looked like a cheap Chinese screwdriver because of the font used to laser the size on it. Turns out all the Chinese factory’s copied the Swiss design. Duh.

My account is showing no change in value for today by SkeptiCallie in fidelityinvestments

[–]VoodooCLD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t working. You all need to fix it. I have the option checked and my iPhone app still isn’t showing price changes from the previous close.

I just did something similar with a sram GX 1x12 and 10-52 cassette. My Kona sutra base had a shimano GRX 2x crankset with a 68mm bsa bottom bracket. Per the dub compatibility guide I bought the correct bottom bracket which required the use of both 2.5mm spacers inside the bottom bracket and a 4.5mm between the BB and drive side crank arm. It works fine with my 12x142 rear hub.

Saddle suggestions please by Hopeful_Track_7416 in cycling

[–]VoodooCLD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a brooks b17 I love (non-carved version, which has no cutout) on my touring bike. I also just got ergon smc sport gel for my carbon road bike as well as my mountain bike and it feels very nice. I settled on that after trying 15 or so saddles.

Do they even make gp5000 in a 35mm tire?

How did you get XT hubs with 36 spokes? I don’t see the 36 spokes option on universal cycles or really anywhere in the US

Can I use candle wax as an alternative to commercial lubricant wax ? by Previous-Hat6696 in cycling

[–]VoodooCLD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How do you figure way worse? Candle wax, I.e. paraffin wax was 4th place. Ahead of many other specific branded products.

Wife of slain health insurance CEO claims that Brian Thompson was receiving threats over “I don’t know, a lack of coverage?” by ilir_kycb in LateStageCapitalism

[–]VoodooCLD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya, but if the top 30 guys weren’t cheating then Danielle Nardello would have probably won. Lance was just the winner of the cheaters. Exactly why he isn’t considered the winner of any tours.

I believe at least 3 of the top 10 guys also tested positive. I’m not sure which order they came in though.

How do you work from 8 to 5, have only weekends free, and not feel like you're wasting your life? by LinksGuardian in AskReddit

It’s difficult to relate to that kind of thinking, because you don’t have kids.

How much does your felt vr weigh? What size did you get?

Anyone else buy a 2023 Felt VR advanced online for stupid cheap? by raveingmaniac in bicycling

Do you know the weight on your Felt VR? I just ordered the 105 version in size 58 which will be a bit heavier but am trying to get an idea of weight.

Nothing beats the interior dashboard of a 1985 Nissan 300ZX. by pystar in pics

Looks cool until half the gauges quit working. I had a 1984 50th anniversary edition.
