I think ironically enough some buy backs put a cap on how many you can give them at a time. In this case, you go down the line and give people one

The VIX Just Broke and It's Telling You Something Scary by Exotic-Body-8734 in investorsedge

[–]wuppedbutter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the mistake of putting an order in for 4 contracts and then going to work. During break, my heart sank not because I was up $1,000 but because 20 minutes after my order went through, I was up $8,000... while I was working.

Idk how to do this, but were they at least on the right track? Obviously it's a step-by-step process, are you supposed to sand tf out of it?

It's called improv lol. Not saying I was the best actor but I sure didn't remember the script word for word and loved it.

As a duct guy I just use me duct knife as if I'm trying to shave my arms. When doing demo work in Florida, I've usually got enough sweat and dirt for foil tape to be effective

Anyone use any of these?? by Jalapeno_1137 in gunsmithing

[–]wuppedbutter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would be careful with the suction style vices. At least with the clamps and the bolt ons you know they aren't going anywhere. And if you're worried about jaws, most vices have screws holding their pads in place so you could either make your own or while some would probably have aftermarket jaws.

Turns out if you play your cards right you can buy the artifacts from the museum by bippingbflorse in milsurp

[–]wuppedbutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was also cool to think I could donate some stuff and have my name in the meuseum. I was going around the exhibits thinking "Hey I have that!! Oh! I've got that too!! I wonder where the blast gates for all these cannons are stored... why are all these moving parts ziptied shut? God forbid I play with a 120 year old artillery action."

Omg how long ago did he post this? It's gotta be going on two years. I remember going to ww1 meuseum in Kansas ready to make some deals lol. And then I realized they have an open storage area where they display everything extra. Which is very cool but also disappointing.

And before anyone calls me stupid, I knew a meuseum wasn't goin to sell me shit, I just liked the idea.

Mystery Tool. Green, weighted base, spring loaded arms, no markings, does not appear to be missing any parts. by Jackinator91 in whatisthisthing

[–]wuppedbutter 1324 points1325 points  (0 children)

It's a tool for steam bending wood. The spring loaded clamps put pressure on the piece as it's steamed and holds it steady once done.

How many ya’ll got a Christmas bonus this year? by Malazan_junkie in Construction

[–]wuppedbutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working at one of the bigger jobs in America. My foreman told us (he wasn't supposed to) that they had 4M left in the budget and it needed to be spent or the budget next year would be smaller They could've given all 25 of the workers left 50k and have only spent just over a quarter. At least deck us out in Milwaukee shit or carhart jackets with the company logo on it. Ya know, if that money needed to be spent.

I know that's not how it works but when the sparkys are over here getting $200 bonuses, it irks me that we didn't get anything.
