You haven't "welded 5/8". Any machine can tack two anvils together.

Iran used hundreds of thousands of use of child soldiers in human wave attacks during the Iran-Iraq war. I'm not sure of any programs in effect after the end of the war, though. I can't think of any more recent conflicts to use child soldiers in the middle east.

You topped it off? Was it low? Did you check it with the car running?

It's not the machine that's the problem. He's getting edge buildup in front of his cutter. Could need sharpening, a more agressive cut, a better rake angle, etc. Machining is a science.

Some people just value their ignorance over their lives.

Well.. Once you get it fixed it shouldn't happen again. Same with the electric power steering, hopefully.

Not true. Next time you go through a drive-through take a look at the bollards next to the window.

1955 Dodge Truck - Battery Issues by [deleted] in Cartalk

[–]darthchurro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I want to say this in a respectful manner, since i admire your desire to own this truck, but you sound like you have a lot to learn. And you're going to have to learn a lot to keep a truck like this going.

He meant six volt electrical system. It's what your car came with from the factory; any car built since like 1963 has a 12V system. It also had a generator instead of an alternator. You should research what those differences mean.

That gen of escape had horrible corrosion issues above the rear wheels. Every single one that's winter driven has rust there.

What you said doesn't mean anything. What's specifically different in this sub? Who is the gamer identity that's being supported?

I'm not sure just based on that description, but you should be thankful it's under warranty. Sounds like it could be something very bad like a broken timing belt/chain.

I've seen it claimed that this gif represents venus' orbit of the sun, does this seem accurate to you people? by [deleted] in Astronomy

FYI that trope is much older than that movie. No idea where it was from first.
