    Stupid Mistakes I've made working on stuff, thread..

    My best non-car stupid mistake was made with a potato cannon that I built with a friend. He fired it and when I opened up the back of it to reload with hairspray I noticed it smelled like it hadn't been fired. So l looked into it and said, "Hey it smells like unburnt hairspray," flicked the...

    Stupid Mistakes I've made working on stuff, thread..

    In highschool I found out about how hard a spark plug can shock, too... on a 3 1/2 hp lawnmower. It was my dads, and the kill switch didn't work, so he used a rake to short the plug to the block. It was a hot day, and I had run out of something to drink way out in the yard. Since there...

    Stupid Mistakes I've made working on stuff, thread..

    I was adjusting my timing and heard this really bad rattle when I started the car. Shut it off, looked things over and heard it again. I looked down the front of the engine because my fan blade wasn't turning, and saw that I left my ratchet on the crank, the handle had swung around and gotten...

    Parentals non stop whining about money.

    How about this? Grow up, get a job, support yourself 100%, buy what you want because you only have yourself to answer to? Since when is every damn kid over the age of 10 ENTITLED to a cell phone paid for by their parents? Since when are parents REQUIRED to buy and insure a car for their...

    How about paypaling the money you were going to spend on your tattoo to klst6520@msn.com? I could really use the money to remove mine. ;)

    So long, y'all!

    I'm one of the noob's you helped a LOT, and there's a PM or two that was sent your way saying so. A printout of your "Dylan's How To" got me through the bhg I ran into 2 weeks after buying my car with no idea how to do much more than an oil change. I have to agree with WeezL: you could've...

    '90 Turbo vs Saturn Vue

    A couple of days ago this guy in a Saturn VUE started messing with me at a couple of stop lights in. I pulled in behind him at the last light and flashed my lights to let him know I was ready to play. On the green we both shot out ahead of the car on the right, I spooled up, changed lanes and...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    A great gun might not cure a bad shot, but practice sure will and with a beautiful pistol like that I would be there just about every day. :) Range fees are $9 for half an hour, and by God you had better not go 31 minutes. I'm trying to improve my shooting and that takes practice and at $20...

    Home gun range... Range fees and ammo are killing me, so I've been thinking about building a bullet trap for my basement (7+ yard range). I'm concerned about noise, odor and lead with a .22 pistol, so I've been thinking about buying a good air pistol. Does anybody have any experience with...
