Not So Pro 3

Evening ratchet ruiners!
Got the 350 Hoosky "Extra Boudin edition" finished.
Muffler turned out pretty bad. All I had was an acetylene torch and a 3/32" filler rod.
She got a little hot.
Found a pin hole that melted in it, but its good enough for who its for right now.View attachment 289830 View attachment 289831

I don't weld. Lucky @Red97 compensates for my inadequacy with his mean-as deflectors. Step-drill a port and rivnut the deflector on. Job done.

You rough prix. Heard of power bars or tee's?

2 inch square tubing is a good cheater pipe
I have Milwaukee impacts that do most of the work

I have a really old uniqueish ratchet. It's 3/8" one side, 1/4" the other. I'd use it more but I swear it's got like 12 teeth. Never gonna choose it over a 120XP alternative.

anything over 72 tooth is for weak wristed women

I've been getting some HF hand tools lately because Jonathan and Blake keep breaking stuff. I've got 3/4" drive tools, but they would rather slide a cheater pipe over a 3/8" ratchet and break it than dig out the big stuff. To be honest, the HF tools are really nice stuff.

I think HF has stepped up their game the last few years. Some is still junk but they have come out with some higher end line of tools that are pretty nice.

Wanna buy a genny? Lol.

Lol...not that one. I do have a 6500 watt Predator from there though. We have a whole house natural gas genny in this house so i haven’t used the Predator in a while. The natural gas is nice so we don’t have to wait on the slackers from DTE to get the power back on.

Your choice of cheater pipe wasn't the bit in question...

Well guilty then. Weak wristed woman who works in tight spaces I must be.

I love my M18 Fuel impacts. I have a real nice Atlas Copco air impact my dad got from the trash at work. He retired from Atlas Copco (was Chicago Pneumatic before AC bought them out). It was a demo the sales guys had that they were just gonna throw away about 10 of them and some air ratchets so he took them all and gave them away. If you’re not careful it will snap that lug nuts off of your car.

tight spaces they do ok but they are weak when things are tight
I’ve stripped a few 1/4 and 3/8

Was that genny there when you moved in or did you add it? Any idea how much they run?

Those burgers look delicious!

They were delicious although likely a little too lean for smash burgers. In grocery stores here we can’t get 80/20, need to place a special order with a butcher next time. Grill was a little too hot as well, tried throwing down a dollop of butter before their burger and it browned instantly or slip in to the fire.

Their air tools, some of the drill bits and a few other things are a limited warranty. Everything else is lifetime. I'm lucky that my Snap-on guy is a good one. We used to have a decent Mac guy, the one we have now is a knob. We had an OK Matco guy, but he only lasted a year or two.

I have hf tools also and have not had any issues
Just don’t get any of the electric corded tools, junk.

I put butter on the burger bun after toasting. The residual heat of the beef melts the butter.

The buns were buttered before toasting on the grill. I have finally found the ultimate gluten free bun.

Nope just cutting and welding. Putting some rough stuff front shock towers in. The tube mounts chit the bed. How are you doing Adam?

hf has some good sockets not sure about wrenches and screwdrivers

Yup, sockets. I suppose some other things as well, some stuff is a waster of time though. I can smoke an electric grinder as fast as you can get em for me.
