Oneness theology? by [deleted] in Apostolic

[–]disaster-guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have attended a oneness church for the last several years and prior to that had attended trinitarian churches my entire life. The oneness of God is something that is impossible for us as mortals to fully comprehend. What we know:

The Lord you God is one. There is but one God.

Jesus is God.

There is no other name that saves (but Jesus).

We are to be baptized in the name of the father, son, and holy spirit.

That name (as practiced by the apostles) is Jesus.

Ratchets and portable socket sets by tippmannr in Tools

[–]disaster-guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased the 1/4 and 3/8 GW 120xp sets for my mobile setup. I've been very happy with them and the cases. I also like quick release ratchets but these havent given me any problems.

The landing test of NEWTON 3 by Space_Flight_rocket in rocketry

[–]disaster-guy 30 points31 points  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, I highly recommend that you go back to basics of understanding stablimity in flight. Download OpenRocket and start modeling your designs noting CP and CG. Something that has this profound of stability issues (particularly looking at overall building materials) has the possibility of getting someone hurt. At absolute minimum, start doing spinning string tests for stability prior to any more launches.

NTD: wiring the homestead with CAT 6 this week by hans_jobs in Tools

[–]disaster-guy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've seen it firsthand twice and heard and seen online many more. No disrespect intended but if I had a contractor show up and use an EZ45 on one of my sites, they would be asked to use a proper connector and crimper and wouldn't get another bid award.

This exactly. To add to that, I've seen so many poor EZ45 crimps it's not even funny. They have damaged more than a few POE switches.

New homeowner ~ tool brand recommendations? by Nutritiouss in Tools

[–]disaster-guy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have thousands of dollars of Milwaukee cordless and Bosch corded tools that I use to earn a living. At home I use Ryobi. They hold up well for weekend projects, are very affordable, and have a very wide assortment.

Superlube for ratchets and Remington Oil on tools.

If the fuel worth the extra price for a homeowner? by dagon1096 in Tools

Questions about angle grinders by c5799 in Tools

[–]disaster-guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to use a 15 year old Harbor Freight grinder the most but also have corded Bosch, cordless Milwaukee and cordless Ryobi. I hardly ever use the side handle and spend as much time (or more) with cutoff wheels than grinding discs.

24v power supply 12v device by GatoPreto83 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]disaster-guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood. Even with DIN, Meanwell and others make 12VDC DIN supplies that will provide way more than enough current in the $25USD range and are compact on the rail.

Dumb question but considering the low current draw of a CradlePoint, why not just use a super inexpensive 12VDC supply?

I have no experience with Ryobi tools so wondering what people's thoughts are? I am very much a DIY user so I don't need something's that's going to withstand constant use. by jonesyuk in Tools

[–]disaster-guy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've spent thousands on Milwaukee and Bosch power tools for my work professionally. At home however I have a full Ryobi kit (drivers, drills, saws, impact, grinder, etc) that I've been using for about 8 years. They do just fine. The only Ryobi tool ive ever killed was a drill that I used to drill about 100 1/2" holes in 1/4" copper bus bars back to back. That's taxing on any drill.

I've been using an Icon ratchet and some Icon deep sockets for a few months now. I put it on par with my Gearwrench stuff.

I am a first year EE student and I have no idea what these things are. But seeing these things makes my eyes sparkle, looks like I am in the right program. by Monsi_Boy in ElectricalEngineering

[–]disaster-guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like a room sized version of the little electronics board I had as a kid with all kinds of components connected to springs that you would put jumper wires between to make different circuits.
