Stay at Home: What are you doing to make the best of this time?

[MyLandy]

On my old VW I had a lead I could disconnect that would allow the engine to turn over but not fire up, super simple to connect and disconnect, do these have that terminal?

Good choice on this, their great:

No it's a Stihl BR550. Do you know if FB allows you to setup an alert for specific key words?

My face when I finally decide to take the time to read some of my Toyota Trail magazines that Ive been methodically collecting for 2 years and put them in a prominent spot on the bookshelf and when I ask “hey honey- where have you been storing my Toyota Trail magazines?” And you find out that she’s been throwing each previous issue out with the recycling every time a new one arrives... on the bright side, she did hand me a copy of this month’s Food and Wine magazine to look at.

So I'm guessing I probably shouldn't install my new master cylinder on to this booster? Or should I try to clean it up and roll with it?

Edit. Cleaned it up some. Think I'm going to give it a try.

You can download them online— not the same if you prefer a physical copy.

Nah... I dig actual printed copies.

You're really missing out! ONSC has had a lot of trucks on the cover, open, and closing shots in the last 2 years!

 

[iptman]

Thanks for the tips guys. Also got some dusk to Dawn floods coming on Monday that will do half wattage throughout the night and pop full when motion is detected.

 

[JohnVee]

@iptman Stump's comment about trucks at night was good, but also realize that there's probably a TON of people walking "for health and wellbeing" during the day now; it's not likely that you were random. Never look at anybody as innocent. Be like me. I bring the paranoia everywhere I go.

@iptman I like Nest security cams. They even have audio!

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean someone isn't out to get you!

We got a Ring doorbell. Amazing.

I have had my company truck Broken into (I leave it unlocked so broken is the wrong word) when the motion light kicks on they all ran with nothing. It’s kind of funny to watch on my security cams.

 

[NearJetties]

I’m starting to think about adding a Blue Sea fuse box and breaker to clean things up and have future capacity.

No one makes a slick mount for the 62– @emorth what kind of plastic would you recommend so I can make my own? Abs? HDPE?

Or if anyone knows a reasonably priced place to cnc some aluminum.

Found the ****er trying to sell the chainsaw on LetGo. Already sold the blower. I reached out to the officer assigned to my case. Hopefully they can get the guy. The 462 comes with a 20 inch bar and I got mine setup with a 28in bar as it shows in the listing. I'll be quite irritated if the police don't follow up on this since these are probably the same guys who did all the other burglaries in the neighborhood that night.

Good for you. I think that you will have to hound to police though, and you should.

 

[iptman]

I'm trying. I called his station and they said he gets on at 2:00 today. I sent the URLs an screen shots and LetGo has a form for law enforcement to get information. Hopefully it's a show day and he follows up.

 

[JohnVee]

...since these are probably the same guys who did all the other burglaries in the neighborhood that night.

I hope you've also alerted the neighbors where to look out for their items. Get screen shots as soon as they find any posts of their items because the guy will get hip to his mistake pretty quickly and delete the posts.

I just put an order in with OSH cut cnc. They were super reasonably priced. I ordered in quantity though. A one off may be too expensive.
