I have something like 5 Fluke meters, all sooty, smelly and variously damaged after the house fire. My FIRST Fluke I ever had I bought new back in the '90's when I went to work for the Motorola outfit. I don't remember, I think I paid over 300 bucks, a Fluke 73-III. The thing got wet...

First time I saw this I was about 5 years old, about 1953, on the old toilet out back of Gramp's house I dug it out when cleaning out the house and decided to decorate this junk trailer I'm camping out in

I am STILL totally pissed at the great big red print from down under. He ran Redfish off of here with an INCORRECT accusation, and I'm tired of stewing about it. I once had Red's contact info, email or phone, I have forgotten. If anyone can put me in touch DO NOT POST HERE...

Found it today back in the laundry room. Not pretty. I guess it could be made operable, but it will take A LOT

My best Fluke may not make it. It powers up with a new battery, but it was somewhat warm, and the battery leaked. The others I have in the basement are "smokey." So I thought I'd buy an inexpensive tester to get by until I get something better, or see about getting the Flukes cleaned...

Randy came down from Alberta for a few days, helped me and yesterday we made a BIG hole in the mess!!

That nice little mech drive tach, and somewhere near it was a cast iron Prestolite breakerless tach drive SB dist I bought from someone on here. Dist may be salvagable, IF I find it.

The other day I found my new camera, slightly smelly, in a DRY bag. Canon 5D Mk IV. AND the old Dakota often refuses to shift. Sometimes it defaults to limp mode (3rd gear) or locks up in 1st and refuses to shift out. Like yesterday, going to and from the dump, lol ANYWAY...

The AR club, that is. I have been thinking of building 1 or 2 from so called "80% lowers" But I figured since I have no experience with an AR, I should AT LEAST have one made by someone as a starting point so I know what is "right" shall we say. For some reason I got a ?? up my...

Peruvian cops us Santa --with a sledge hammer--as cover for a drug bust. And that DOES it!! That ENDS it!!! NOTHING is sacred!!

My adoptive neighbors informed me, the other day, that we are having Christmas breakfast. So I just got done ironing up a whole BUNCH of waffles for the somewhere around 12 of us, and am trying out a couple right now. sugar free "Mrs Buttersworth" syrup. I am for sure no...

All righty, then..............back when I could actually work, all/ any of my rechargeable tools were the old Makita 9.6 "long handled" stuff, and a couple drills were the long handled 12V had the bulge at the bottom. But you cannot really buy batteries for them (nicad) anymore Weeks...

My neighbor today............ Handed me a little nitrous kit he's never used for a 2 stroke snowmobile.......... Looks like this except with bottle bracket and aluminum cylinder.

.............No idea who is operating the camera........

I have an old recliner which is basically "where I live" when sat down in the house. I guess about year and a half ago I damaged the foot gear such that it's a struggle to get the thing folded back in. I got tired of messin with that so today I dumped it upside down and looked it all...

I still think, LOL, that the irony of Jap engines in a B-29 is huge..............

Yeh, right. You know me. "Mr. piston stop." We can use a screwdriver, instead. NOT!!

Just thinking the other day. I'm not very active on amateur radio anymore, but I first got interested in radio/ electronics around 1960, a bit more serious around 62-63, and got my amateur novice license when I was a sophmore/ junior in about 65. I've seen electronics go from vacuum...

I spose most of you are aware, but the once "standard" rating of the 5V spec for USB cables got trashed early on. I think it was originally 1/2 amp, don't remember. I had bought an off brand kit off egag of 2 batteries and charger for one of my cameras to have some sort of spares...
