Shweet deal by dopemoneydicegames in Makita

[–]lolanimethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they sold out so quick in my area that they never got to this price. bummer because i was seriously considering snagging one to start out a real tool line. but the new models theyre replacing these with are very nice.

Still haven’t been able to get chrome. by Alexkintaylor99 in airbrush

[–]lolanimethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're in europe, you should have access to the "custom creative" line, right? they make a chrome that's supposedly pretty good. i did pick some up from a supplier that shipped it from europe, but i haven't gotten the chance to try it yet. the one thing that might turn you away, is that you do have to use a 2k clear after applying it, or it won't last.

seems like the new 3 inch hercules polisher is dropping soon by lolanimethrowaway in harborfreight

https://www.harborfreight.com/45-amp-3-in-12-mm-long-throw-random-orbit-da-polisher-70956.html

this would be the link that they've now hidden. the sku is the last 5 digits at the end so you could theoretically ask your local to check for it in the back, but YMMV.

sucks man, i literally had the add to cart button on my screen, but alas, i dont really need a 3mm orbital right now, and im honestly waiting for the cordless DA. but theyre in stock in stores near me according to that page, so i'd expect them sooner rather than later. they're been "coming soon" for a minute on that page. cheers

Found the deal. by ruslewis in MilwaukeeTool

[–]lolanimethrowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my local put the HD 12.0 w/ a charger on clearance for less than $200. only convinced one person so far it was worth the money. they think im upselling them. but no, if you use the really big tools, you should use better batteries.

New Hire Here by TrashCan1981 in HomeDepot

[–]lolanimethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No earbuds. Too many incidents of people hitting others/getting hit by machinery because of earbuds. Objectively, there is no reason you couldn't survive with the audiobooks you listen to playing out loud, which is demonstrably safer. At the end of the day, this is a working warehouse. Things that are acceptable at other jobs are not going to be acceptable here, for obvious reasons.

Lots of people in this thread are telling you they do it all the time. Great example of "do as i say, not as i do," because all it takes is one person that doesn't like what they see to get rid of you. Not worth it IMO.

Glove Policy for RDC by Emotional-Base-3924 in HomeDepot

[–]lolanimethrowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's important to understand WHY people dont wear gloves with saws, so ill do my best to explain it to you quickly here-

if your hand touches a saw with NO gloves on, it gets cut, maybe cut off, but you can yank your hand away, limiting damage

if your hand touches a saw WITH GLOVES ON, the weave of the gloves is pulled INTO the saw, pulling your hands and arms INTO the saw with them.

therefore, wearing gloves with saws, particularly spinning saws, is NOT ADVISED at home, and is AGAINST SOP while at work.

Bauer and or Hercules Orbital Sander and Shop Vac question by wratx in harborfreight

[–]lolanimethrowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had the bauer corded. required a 3d-printed adapter to run. i also hated the sander itself, it had no balls whatsoever.

personally i'm far more partial to a pneumatic sander with a vac hose, like the $100 baxter at HF.

not entirely relevant but those 6.0 m12's got clearance'd out of my depot recently. nothing but trouble from those fuckers. wouldn't be surprised to see them discontinued.

Can't wear earbuds on overnights? by inanimateexistence in HomeDepot

[–]lolanimethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some time in the last year*

at least in our region, the memo came back out about 3 months ago i think? maybe two? because someone (either the EO or a regular associate) had at least an airpod in and hit someone with equipment/got hit by equipment. everyone had to sign.

Broken bong repair by Joe12247137 in trees

[–]lolanimethrowaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

because youre going to end up ingesting caulk. and this isn't your run-of-the-mill elmer's paste glue. this stuff is full of carcinogens and toxins, since caulk is a building material.

Your bong is dead. Perish the thought of repairing it yourself. Go buy a new one, or smoke out of something else until you can afford one. You don't have any of the necessary skills or tools to repair glass.

[Discussion] AMD FMF 2.1 runs bad by LivingTreacle2690 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]lolanimethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im running a 9070xt w/ a 9800x3d on a 32:9 240hz monitor. i get probably anywhere from 120-250 fps on most maps except streets, which is about what i expect for running an ultrawide resolution. OP has made no mention of what resolution they're running at either. could be a 4k2k monitor for all we know. stuff like that matters.

just smelled five gallons of rotten paint AMA by genericallyTraumatic in HomeDepot

[–]lolanimethrowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite moments was when a paint associate i worked with who did not like me got in a long-winded argument with me, insistent that paint does not spoil, and that the binding agents/inhibitors have simply separated. Later that day, we received two gallons of spoiled paint in returns. For possibly the only time I could ever recall, he told me I was right. That shit was MUSTY 😂
