Is it Friday yet? Dang shift work is kicking my butt this week. It wouldn't be so bad except I literally got run over by a bull this past weekend.
I had a 600lb steer mash me against the wall of the chute a few weeks ago. Always a blast ain't it?

Redwing is mostly made in the USA. I buy their heritage boots because their hand made here and they last. Nicks boots, same thing made in USA.

I pay a little more for stuff but thats ok its my money and i like to support American jobs. AMERICA FIRST
I'm with ya sir.
Even Carolina, Ariat,Wolverine, Rocky and Thorogood have USA manufactured lines typically in the high $200's to high 300's range. Even though they typically sale imported $75-100 boots.

I've been studying up on the installation of this unit. If I'm reading my manual correctly, the outside unit has enough refrigerant in it to fill the air handler, and up to 25' of line. So, it that is the case, I can pull a vacuum on the lines and the air handler to evacuate it, then release the refrigerant from the outside unit, and all will be well.

Does that sound right?

Which refrigerant does it use? Some are blended and require the tank inverted.

When I buy clothes or boots.i try to find it American made and I don't care to pay more for it because I know the ones that are making it is poor people just trying to make a living just like me.i try to buy other things American but some stuff is about impossible to find that's made here.

Thorogood has multiple factories in Wisconsin.
They just announced building another one recently.

I too thought China was child labor and deplorable living conditions. Boy was I wrong. Their infrastructure is well kept up, highways, even simple guard rails were impressive. Their is no garbage along the highways either. I found it funny a wind turbine manufacturing site was deserted. If you have the patience to watch this dude check it out. It is an inside country look and was interesting.
