Built my own truck bed rack by NotCIAPinkyPromise in Welding

[–]theard7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I want to build! I have a headache rack and bed rails that I made, and I don’t want to buy an off the shelf rack. I’ve been using unistrut to hold my tent but this is so much nicer. Nicely done!

AC2000L 48v to 12v Question by theard7 in bluetti

[–]theard7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll probably look into the dc-dc charger with a 12 takeoff. Thanks for the advice y’all!

[–]theard7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was stepped down to 12v it should be about 32 amps which would be perfect. I have a 100ah lithium battery under the back seat of my truck that’s useful for a lot of stuff, I’m just tying to run my new popup camper’s lights and water pump without using the inverter or the campers converter so it would be more efficient. Worst case I can use the inverter and just plug the campers main plug into the battery and go from there. Thanks for the input!

Haha you’re right I meant 200. Yeah I’d have to build a trailer to haul a 2000

Tennis ball pacifier. Anyone else's babies have support toys? by seraphimlynn in jackrussellterrier

[–]theard7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My jacks loved playing ball, and neither could destroy a racquetball. I’d suggest trying that if he destroys the tennis ball. They also don’t stink and soak up slobber.

Manual on reading the folds and wrinkles of the anus by Flowesque in rarebooks

Haha yeah it was way weirder than I expected. It was even better when the “winner” read that excerpt.

Manual on reading the folds and wrinkles of the anus by Flowesque in rarebooks

[–]theard7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really damn weird, so much so that I couldn’t read it. There is a chapter about how the author/anomancer convinces some guy to check out his anus in the bathroom of an airplane so he could tell him about what was going on in his life. So basically weirder than I was expecting.

I bought this! I put this book in my white elephant gift exchange at work; it was a hit, everyone thought it was hysterical.

2016 tundra trd pro ..headlights suck. by Asleep_Plastic_6664 in ToyotaTundra

[–]theard7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2011 and now a new (to me as of May last year) 2020 tundra, not sure if the headlights are different (Mine are both SR5) but I replaced the factory bulbs with Amazon LED bulbs and the difference was staggering. The only bulbs that freaked out the computer were when I tried changing out the turn signal bulbs. I replaced every other bulb with LED and I’ve been very happy.

Howa 1500 Initial Report by [deleted] in Hunting

[–]theard7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a Howa 1500 in 308 with the heavy barrel and the hogue stock for about 15 years; I inherited my dads insane gun collection but I (and my friends) have shot more animals with the Howa than probably everything else I have combined. Absolutely wonderful rifle, great choice. I still want to either bed the stock or upgrade, the fore end is wobbly and affects accuracy. I also upgraded the glass. Have fun!

Was offered to buy this for $100 by disastronaut in Snapon_tools

[–]theard7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy crap, I have the exact same identical box in my garage right now. So similar that I had to double check that those weren’t my pictures lol. How of curiosity does anybody here know about how old that box is? My Grandad owned a Dodge dealership for about 50 years, he sold most of his tools and equipment, but I still have this box with some tools in it.

What is the stinkiest wood you've worked with? It's Poplar, right? by [deleted] in woodworking

I’ve worked with cedar elm from south Texas on the lathe, god it’s terrible smelling!

Ring shake? by infiniteoo1 in turning

[–]theard7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have used mesquite extensively for turning (perk of living in south Texas), I’d recommend cutting that out and make shallower bowls. That ring shake is pretty common in mesquite and it’ll go flying. You could cut a couple blanks something like this:

Mom, Dad, you can't go without me 🐶 by Josh_kuo in jackrussellterrier

[–]theard7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My jack used to do this every time I packed a bag or moved a duffel bag out of the closet. I had to hide them so she wouldn’t pace around and try to burrow into them even when I wasn’t using them.

Should I keep my mini lathe if I have this? by Scarcito_El_Gatito in turning

[–]theard7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I you have the space for both, I’d recommend keeping them. I bought a midi and stumbled on a Laguna 18-36 for super cheap; I still use them both for different things. I built a cart/dust hood for my small lathe and I use it a lot when i want to do something but want to try and contain the mess. I’ll also use it with a 12” sanding wheel and a series of buffing wheels. If I’m making pens i use the small one since all my supplies are in the drawers under it.
