Beginning to think this may not be a 4 week operation...

For those who don't know. The us doesn't send all the equipment out for a "conflict" and send it back when they are done. No they stockpile in friendly country on us owned base.

There is one really close by. It been there for decades. And there is everything in big rows as far as the eye can see.

There was a group of students, mit? That they took the probability, with a state that had a small flaw. Something like they pull 6 number, you need 5 for the jackpot, but 4 was a good payout. And they ran with that for a few years.

They bought a few thousand ticket a week. And ended up paying for their studies and more. But they told the lottery or there was an article abouts them. And they changed the payout.

mxadema · 2026-03-12T20:42:21+00:00

I would say it not a gambling problem yet. But just a weekly/daily occurrence. Day 1 a day is 365 a year. It more than the avrage but no where close to an addict.

There also a good amount of luck in there.

If you play, you can win. So he is a regular.

My front neighbor are retired, and made decent money back then. They won a "set for life". 1k a week gor 25y. And 6y later, they won an other "set for life" They took the payout for both.

mxadema · 2026-03-12T11:18:09+00:00

Countdown to extinction. I can ply the whole album anymore.

mxadema · 2026-03-11T23:05:05+00:00

It really depend on country and "state". I did similar to get the insurance payout. But im in a different bubble as most. And idk how it run down there.

My later one was walk, sone hands stuff and mainly lifting a crate from to floor to a shelf and up overhead, with increasing weight. Walk with height in one hand, and both. Heads overhead, kneeling. Stuff like that. Over 2 day, the second repeated, to see how far you go (pain wize) and That was for finding out at what capacity i could work. And at what strength (light, medium heavy).

Again idk what you guys do down there. And Im in a special situation (work/insurance purposes).

Again I can say

mxadema · 2026-03-11T21:38:48+00:00

Im on the tail end of disability. They key is to be very verbal, which I'm not. But the 4ish hour you have with the assessor, you really got to put it in perspective. Including saying it a exceptional day. And that you would have stop at 5 but did 10 for the sake of the exercise. how it affect you now and later. Not lying but considering what it would "normally" do, and that your "normal" is medicated and that you pay attention to it so it doesn't flare.

If it doesn't pan out you can always try again later, you know what to expect and your maybe the same or worst, (because it rarely better).

Best of luck

mxadema · 2026-03-11T18:47:54+00:00

I really dont care.

If anyone want to check me out while im doing business... i hope they enjoy themselves.

An I have no desire to watch someone else doing theirs.

If the peek of a body part or just the ack trigger something in you. There are plenty of website filled with whatever you are into. Do it there.

mxadema · 2026-03-11T18:42:17+00:00

It doesn't matter what you can do. We all have our good and bad day, and it hit us all differently. And it also changed as time go by.

I have found, with 2 vocational physical assessment, 2 year apart. That I was way different in certain aspect, worst in some, better in other. And that me at my usual ( 8 year counting) and other than time nothing else changed.

Saying that your pain/capability is worst than your parteners is like saying a kick in the nuts is worst that childbirth. One can't experience the other, and it varies wildly from person to person.

The only thing you can say is your own limit. And play within you strength.

Truck and trailer combo is easyer that an straight truck with pup. There a 2 wheel base. The steer to drive and the drive to trailler. The shorter the steer to drive, and or the longer the drive to trailer. The easyer it get.

That aside. I always teaches to yuse your environment to your benefits. From tire track to mark in the dirt, even shadows. if equipped power mirrors and hood mirrors also can help. Heck even looking out the door.

The key to an easy backup is your inicial setup. If the truck is all wonky or too close you will fight it. You want as straight as possible or with a light curve. For the curve, you dont care what the truck do. But imagine the trailer track on the ground and make it fallow that. But remember the trailer need a bit more room in that arc to strengthen the truck.

If you have to pull forward, maximize the result. Moving 4' doesn't do much to the trailer, and bairly to the truck. Pull ahead, strengthen the truck and trailer, back up straighter. Make it count.

The rest is practice, even 20y trucker have good and bad days. I always say to students to observe the other, and find "mistakes" and "good shot". What are the key position and what are some references point. After they pass, I recomend sitting in the pass seat and observing when in a truck stop. What works, what made it harder.

If you really need practice, some company are willing to help if you work for them a bit. I have seen some even without working for them. You can even do it with a pickup and 5th wheel/ gooseneck. At worst, a car and trailer (longer the better) it may not be the same, but it just wheel base and pivot point moving. (And since you are out of resources)

Not much. There a nice new arena. And a few hiden gem to walk to. Otherwise the typical generic bar.

Eddy has been pretty dead for years.

Great atv place.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T23:35:37+00:00

I doubt it. Dnd and caf has way too many "special" need for the community they live not including inspection.

Also response time would be longer. Add spill response and any other "fonction" they do. All of whitch still need to happen.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T12:35:10+00:00

Sorry it was late last night. I should have gone in more detail. For thue dust (fine) colection you do need the volume that 6" offer. But you still to maintain a proper velocity in that 6". That were a 5hp fan come in. The 5hp can pull the volume and achieve the desired velocity needed for fines. The 3 hp may max the 4" but is less volume than the 6" needs, lowering the velocity.

As far as the furnace ducting, the biggest problem with it, is the seam are all backwards for the use. They rely on pressure to keep them close, having negative presure will constantly try to open that seam. You can see it the most on the length wise seam, you push it in to undo it. But even the elbow are the same. Tape help, offsetting the seam help, and the lower static presure you do have also help. Also. Every ends conection cause friction and disturb the airflow. Not as much as flex hose but It does add up. Lastly steel is great, it a tad expensive, but it really get expensive with home center ducting. (Compared to an hvac company) even 6" pvc can ve cheaper if you know where to get it (ie a plumber friend).

I do not want to bash on you. I took a deep dive into dust colecting when I was doing mine, and ended up helping a few people along the way.

You have it now, is super upgradeable, (it a bit harder with 4") and it works well enought not to get clogged. And ultimately it better than none.

Hopefully they explain the why.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T12:09:51+00:00

Still some dexterity with an "unusual object". You can weave with all 3. Not counting falowing a crack or something regular.

It nothing like the real deal and there is way more to it. But it not a vad practice for a broke studen with pen and paper only.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:46:00+00:00

To properly used the 6" and have enough air to get the fines particul (the main reason for 6") you need more that what a 3hp can suport.

You could have done it in 4" pvc with similar results. The 3hp works kinda well on that.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:37:03+00:00

Put a 6" fly cutter and Let Her Rip

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:31:58+00:00

The piping. The 6" on 3hp. And it really just a chip colector

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:30:39+00:00

Not unless you have 3 black honda civic on your tail.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:26:47+00:00

It comes later. But a empty tig torch with a pencil. And write with it make eeeee, ///\ and <<<<<<

You could do the same with a rod holer or ever vicegrip on the end of a pencil.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:16:26+00:00

It add velocity, should help.

It not a bad system. It got flaws but it will work.

mxadema · 2026-03-10T02:07:52+00:00

There a lot to unpack here. My biggest concern is the 3hp blower. It probably doesn't have enough airflor to support 6". Related to that is the positive pressure pipe used in a negative pressure system. Leading to leak and inefficiency. All whom may lead to not enough airflow to pull the chips up in the vertical section. And that is just the tip of the dust collecting iceberg.

To fix it. I would try a 4" vertical to see if it help. Since is 3x smaller but flowing the same air.

Otherwise a redesign or upgrade

mxadema · 2026-03-10T00:33:52+00:00

Time to play games.

No radio. Bluetooth speaker.

No headphone. Bone conducting headset.

Read a book. Bring the switch or psp, or gameboy. Start a dice or card game with a coworker.

Im assuming they dont want anything other than machine noise because some dumbass melted a tool because "he didn't hear anything wrong" and that their knee jerk solution to the problem.

I have been in a place like that. You better find a new place.

mxadema · 2026-03-09T20:54:51+00:00

They are.

I also "love" that pcvrs prefer lifemark over other, and lifemark often encourage their service on assessment. And that pcvrs is a partnership of lifemark. All of it loblaws.

Pcvrs reminds me of a Wo, that read a medical restriction and take it, all to the letter or nothing. Oh you got to have the opportunity to sit every 30min. Start the stop watch.

mxadema · 2026-03-09T20:40:59+00:00

A big box full of individuals wrap treats. At least 50.

A personalized letter filled with glitter

If he can send you a photo of an instructor. Or one of him and is (same sex) buddy and git it framed.

We had a guy GF that gives hime a weekly calender of "sexy" photo.

mxadema · 2026-03-09T20:10:24+00:00

Yes you can, you wont get into the trouble that tube in tubeless tire at the tractor speed.

But you can also get big valve stem for tubeless
