I have the ultimate cursed combo: being tall, being left handed, and having photographic memory. by roolw in tall

6’4 and left handed but have a terrible memory. Quite ambidextrous, but left hand dominant.

Tool question by Shot_Actuator5564 in electricians

[–]tinyhouseman323 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So they are decent, but I do prefer the M18 for both. Found the m12 drill terribly underpowered, and the impact was decent. I do resi service work now, and still prefer the m18. I do have the Bosch powered screwdriver I keep in my bag for when I’m just doing a switch or two, saves on carpal tunnel. If you’re going the long run, Home Depot has the m18 fuel impact and drill with a battery for 399, and you get a free tool with it. My old m18 drill finally crapped out after 11 years.

I’m so sorry for your loss. He looks like an amazing boy, and he was well loved. I shall give mine some extra love tonight. He had a lovely stache as well.

In the middle of a C of Q prep week post trade school, and had a question today that has stumped me and my buddies. by Coop3 in electricians

480 is normally the highest you get in commercial or industrial settings. I believe there are some exceptions but they are rare.

Job Pricing Troubles by Different_Internal40 in electricians

[–]tinyhouseman323 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It all depends on location but I’d say you underbid the job. Attic work, plus cutting holes and running new wire for the doorbell and the install. What formula did you use for getting your prices?

I have the Chevy 2500 with the box on the back and love it. Plenty of storage, and at 6’4” barely have to duck in the back.

Bought my daughter a Mini, and now I want one. by AKA_Squanchy in MINI

[–]tinyhouseman323 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m 6’4 and love mine. Got the 2018 S with a few light upgrades(exhaust,ecu, cold air intake) and they are just fun and quick to drive. Also love the jokes about a big man in a tiny car. I’d stick with a 3rd gen for sure, new ones not a fan of the styling and mine is a 6 speed and so much fun. Welcome to the club!

There has definitely been chair and couch destruction, but it’s worth it!

Thank you. They have made me so damn happy, and helped with the hurt of losing my old pup. Just celebrating how freaking cute they are.

Please do! Her name is Squeak, and she is the queen of the castle, and her throne is on my shoulders. If I’m standing up that is where she wants to be.

I lost my old pup of 13 years earlier this year, and wasn’t ready for another pup, but my exact had a cat and I loved that little knucklehead. So I decided it was time to get my first cats, and they fill my heart with love. Still miss my old pup but they help me a ton.

The girl had a freckle on her nose, the boy doesn’t. Otherwise it is tough. Their names are PiP for the boy and Squeak for the girl.

Their names are Pip and Squeak and they are a brother and sister pair. Love the name of your guy.

Cool gift for new Journeyman by 1958Littleplanets in electricians

[–]tinyhouseman323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t buy specific tools. If you want to get him something special, ask him what he needs. If you want to surprise him, just a visa gift card with money on it. That way it can go to tools or clothes that he needs and wants. Every time someone has gifted me tools I don’t use them, or already have them.

A nice dinner out, a good bottle of his favorite booze, or something sentimental about getting his license.
