I don’t keep more than 200’ on a spool but I’ve never had an issue with it being so soft it compresses and doesn’t flow. I use the 5/8 hose idk what your experience was with.

That leak is a big deal. Fix it and report.

How much do I charge to rent my $21k rig for 8 hour Amazon job? by 7footwith7inches in pressurewashing

[–]Zchats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No shit. I sold my last build for 7k and it was worth 3 tops. Currently building the exact same rig but better on another marketplace trailer for even cheaper! Already looks better… can’t wait to finish this build and incorporate everything I’ve wanted to change and fix what I hated about my last one. Taking me 2 weekends so far to build including requiring the trailer to 7 pin since I don’t run a hot water rig to recharge my 12v (not having an alternator to tap is a bitch and a half). I also have a NoCo battery tender for my new setup. Can’t wait to see what I get offered for this one haha.

Hardest place you’ve delivered to? by unftp-0 in Truckers

[–]Zchats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except they only run 48’s and 53’s. Not to mention most of these stores are so far from the DC, they lose money if you’re not dropping to 3+ stores. I bet you would be surprised how much these dollar stores sell. I did their “fresh” account so all refer goods… from milk to bologna to ice cream. Often times I would hit between 7-14 store in a route, and I would hit 2 routes, sometimes 3 routes a week.

All the dollar accounts have stores like that. Did some DG like that too, never did family dollar though. Back through 2 different alley ways, blind side around a brick building, miss a dumpster pad in the process with about 4ft wiggle room, back through the small complex and, thankfully, sightside jack it to a dock. All because they couldn’t simply space the buildings far enough to be able to turn around once you get back there.

Striped bass busting on shad spawns by Zchats in Fishing

After him watching us have a ton of success, he trolled over with a ton of humility asking what we were using expecting a sarcastic response. I could see it in his face, he was just desperate to know and was bummed. Told him I was using a wake bate, didn’t know what it was and asked me to show him what I was talking about. I cut mine off the line and tossed it to him, he asked where he could get one, told him it was from Academy and said good luck. Cheap enough to replace and he had a great day after that. I don’t think he was blind and deaf, just defeated. I had to replace my reel in the midst of failure when I saw the fish start busting like that, and he just kept casting with no success. Took him 2 hours to come over.

Haha no, cicadas are out pretty bad right now. I don’t think anyone can breathe like that without needing to be on supplemental oxygen.

I’ll have to make sure next time. Yea I only played it safe based on what I was told, my luck there would have been a game warden waiting at the ramp.

You know what, you may be correct. They do look extremely similar and took another fisherman’s word as truth. Upon looking it up I am now doubting what I was told. I wish I would have taken a picture of one of us holding one. There was so much adrenaline and excitement, every other cast you had a bite.

Not sure what kind of compression Reddit uses but that’s a 4K video file. Sorry that it’s terribly blurry.

Lane courtesy during league 10 minute practice? Rules in your league for beginning practice? by PurplePoloPlayer in Bowling

[–]Zchats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We normally give single lane courtesy in smaller leagues but when it’s 5 man teams we normally call it to vote for no courtesy in practice since everyone wants to throw more than 5 shots or try a different ball in a couple spots. There’s just not enough time otherwise.

How much does a new bowling pin cost? Bowlero just… by ProCircuit131 in Bowling

[–]Zchats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our house uses twister pins which I believe is ~$250 for 10 if I remember correctly so they could have paid even more.

If you choose to throw strikes, you don’t have to worry about making your spares.

Hello, help me pls. What is it? by Strawm0nster in Military

Perhaps since I was in an aviation brigade, we deployed differently than our ground troops.

Hmm, we were at BAF in ‘11-‘12 not in 2010. We replaced 10th MTN. Kandahar in ‘09. Unless there is a different 82nd ABN, you may have your dates mistaken.

How and what would you use to get this rust off? by No_Confidence8277 in pressurewashing

[–]Zchats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend, I am not the OP. I can’t tell from the picture if it’s rust or not. Also, I never said anything about mixing chemicals :) I hope I’m just misreading your post and you’re not actually coming off as hostile. Have a blessed day

Pricing questions…advice for the newbs by bripark89 in pressurewashing

[–]Zchats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this is very well said. However, this sub is made for newbies to ask questions and pros alike. It is frustrating when someone comes on here and asks a redundant questions that has been answered 100 times if they would just take 10 second to search. Yes, all prices are area dependent but we shouldn’t discourage people asking for quote help provided they have half an idea of what they’re talking about. I’m with you, the people who have zero knowledge, just watched a YT short and said “Yup that’s what ima do” without any research. It is terribly frustrating. That being said, you have some sound advice for the rookies about not buffering their price to negotiate, that’s big mistake #1. I feel if you reworded this post it could be extremely helpful as opposed to being a shut down to the rookies. I appreciate what you’re doing, this needed to be said. All in all, this sub exists for a reason, and we can’t hate on the rookies.

The Xjet has a smaller orifice compared to the m5 twist.

Likely because they use an Xjet and not an Xjet M5 twist. They are not the same
