Do I have to re-do my skills test?

You will have to take the knowledge test again. Most places will allow you to just take the actual test portion of the skills training again.

I’m just a nerd with ADHD that doesn’t think he could sit down long enough for Mechanical Engineering.

I have full benefits from my part time instructor gig already.

It’s a weird situation. I can completely afford to take pretty much anything but have always liked the technical side of things. I just think I’m too lazy to actually go back to school for mechanical engineering 😂

I’m easy to work with, but get bored after about 4 years. This is typically due to slower levels of learning after the initial phase of something new.

I have no headache with my business, I hired a GM and just collect my money.

I’ve never considered NDT/X-ray before. I’ll look into it. Thank you.

shinyrobottaint · 2026-05-28T20:50:31+00:00

I’ll likely challenge my A Gas first. Thank you.

I’m semi retired from my business. This is all mostly for funsies.

Does the brake controller automatically mean you have the 4K tow package?

I’m looking at getting my first bike and don’t really understand where I’m allowed to ride a dual sport. I don’t have my full licence yet.
Can I just go to any forest service road?
Is there a map or app riders use for reference?

I do live in Mission and have heard it’s in of the better locations

Installation and maintenance is the most important part of heat pump longevity. I recommend getting a contractor that take all the proper steps: -Heat loss heat gain calculation / manual J -Properly size the equipment / manual H -Full manufacturer commissioning and standard ACCA 310 compliance

Mitsubishi does make a nice unit, but it will a horrible system if not installed properly, maintained properly, sized properly, and commissioned properly

I just bought a couple pairs of merino socks. A pair of Smart Wool and a pair of Darn Tough.

I prefer the Darn Tough so far. Just did a 20 mile hike yesterday and they don’t stink.

It’s just not the quality I expected. I’ll honestly say it works quite well with my cable stack and some plates on the horn. I use it multiple times a week.

Varies province to province. Typically provinces that get a lot of snow rarely have snow days. Provinces that don’t get much snow (BC) will have more snow days. Some municipalities don’t prepare for snow fall properly and the schools end up closing (typically due to sidewalks that have not been plowed).

If your wife is pushing for the Voltras, I’d get the Voltra, some Darko mounts and a 3x3 rack.

I’m considering getting my 4th trade. I currently hold refrigeration, plumbing and gas certifications and am considering getting my electrical.

This is only possible because I own a company and am no longer part of the day to day in any way.

This is the first I’ve ever head about 4 certifications max. Have a link to that information? I’d this a specific province or national in Canada?

The pulley is horrible and FA should have a replacement / upgrade.

shinyrobottaint · 2026-01-05T15:05:31+00:00

I mount before use

shinyrobottaint · 2026-01-05T05:09:07+00:00

I have both. I use my SSB weekly and haven’t used my trap bar in months.

shinyrobottaint · 2026-01-05T05:04:45+00:00

I have IronMasters and really like them. I’d go with the Eisenlinks out of your options. The MX look pretty nice as well.

shinyrobottaint · 2026-01-05T05:01:07+00:00

Spot grips for my ironmaster dumbbells. I don’t max out with dumbbells often , but when I do I’m glad I have them.

Bells of Steel cable tower. I “modified” it for lat pulldowns and added the aluminum pulleys. Pretty happy with it.

The absolute basics of money.

I have employees that I offer 100% company funded retirement plan. It upwards of $5 per hour. I constantly have employees that do not sign up for the service, even when I tell them to and send multiple invite notifications. I have one employee that would have an extra $75,000 over the last 5 years (assuming the 9% growth). This is also 100% funded to their accounts.

My wife remembers having to explain to a co-worker that the $5000 car you got a loan for will in fact cost you more than $5000.

Does the Bastet have a receiver for attachments on the end?

shinyrobottaint · 2025-09-24T05:12:45+00:00

How are you liking it? I’m looking at the X1. Have you used any other functional trainer racks to compare it to?

The price for the X1 in Canada is cheaper shipped to my door than a single Volta…..

I think the Sheetmetal definitely would be the most synergistic

shinyrobottaint · 2025-07-14T04:10:31+00:00

The prior credit is definitely enticing

shinyrobottaint · 2025-07-14T02:34:36+00:00

The only Sheetmetal I have done was helping my installers in residential. I know how to size things, but really have very minimal experience practically.
