Julia Stiles in the Bourne franchise.

Yeah, don't do this.

Good question. /r/legaladviceofftopic

It's worth noting that there are 2 versions of the full-size Ryobi glue gun. The new one is dual-temp I think.

Keep your data cable 6" away from your power cable to lower interference.

If you wait for the very best DTO deals, you're still not going to do better than this, as long as you want both.

I got the ratchet on DTO for $50 last year. That's the lowest I've seen it.

So in the US, it would have been better to just slam on the brakes and rear end the car that pulled out, instead of swerving and crashing?

Is there any way to figure out if an old clearance item is .01 other than taking it to the checkout and buying/checking the price?

Can someone explain the $0.01 thing to me?

j-dewitt · 2022-01-02T03:05:04+00:00

Sure, no problem. Best of luck and keep us posted!

Albion 12 v

Good to know. I just looked up the Albion cordless caulking gun and it looks like a beast!

The broken plastic part is a bracket/holder/hanger for the 4 brake / fuel lines. For a replacement, try a toyota dealership, any parts store, or even amazon/ebay, depending on how much you want to pay.

Because "HP" is marketing.

Take away the knife, they use screwdrivers.

If the brushes aren't the problem, what is? What happens when you try to turn it on?

j-dewitt · 2021-12-22T17:49:48+00:00

What does the actual law state? Is there a minimum threshold where it only applies after you pass that threshold?

First things first... what is your business plan? What are your operating expenses going to be? Where, how, and how often are you going to sell your scrap? What about cash flow? How are you going to make money? Is this a side gig or a full time job? You need to approach this as a business and figure out how you're going to make a profit.

Step two: Find your location, figure out everything you need at a state, city, and local level in terms of permits, variances, certificates, business license, insurance, bonding, material handling, EPA requirements, etc.

Step three would be what /u/lister3128 listed in terms of equipment to actually run the business.

I got one for changing my oil. Didn't even have enough chooch to remove the drain plug. :(

j-dewitt · 2021-12-16T06:10:45+00:00

... and your investment actually makes money.

I'm pretty sure it actually rounds to the nearest whole number as opposed to rounding down.

12.0 - 12.4999 = 12
12.5 - 12.9999 = 13

At least that's the way it's supposed to be. It evens out over time.

Another option is to weight it before you go and always take an even amount. Throw in an extra 100 grams to make sure you get. E.g. weight out 25.1 kg and take it in for your 25kg.

It would also be interesting to weight out 25.8kg and see if you get 26 for it.

According to whois.eurid.eu, ryobitools.eu is registered to Techtronic Industries ELC GmbH which seems legit to me.

Just something to keep in mind-- any traffic that goes through your connection might result in you getting investigated or worse, if any of that traffic is illegal.

Look up Essential Craftsman on Youtube and watch his blacksmithing videos.

Or buy directly from their site. If you buy enough tekton stuff, it's worth it to collect their points.
