inHit 2,000 tube welds on my log book last Friday and I just stared at the number
Kept a similar book when I was running a lot of stainless dairy tube back in the day. Except mine wasn't welds, it was the number of times I had to cut out a bad start and redo it because the tungsten got bumped. Got up to around 400 or so before I quit writing it down. My foreman found the notebook in my hood one day and thought I was keeping a diary. Told him it was my confessions of a guy who can't keep his arc from wandering. He laughed and told me to stop wasting paper. Wish I'd kept it going now, just to see the number.

inCarCapsule vs Carcoon? Looking at inflatable storage
I've actually owned both over the years. Carcoon is decent and definitely gets the job done, but the clear material felt a bit thinner to me. I ultimately switched to CarCapsule because they have been doing it the longest and the materials are just super heavy duty. Plus, their fan setup seems to keep the structure a bit more rigid when fully inflated.

inJust saw a 90s Civic at the junkyard in Tacoma with a perfect factory service sticker still on the window
Found one in a '92 last year, still had the little booklet in the glovebox. Did the thing actually work when you powered it on, or was it just for show? Those old belts turn to goo.

inAm I the only one who used to just blow out dust with canned air until I tried a proper electric duster on a client's ancient gaming rig last week?
Packed lint from the CPU heatsink" is why I finally bought one too.

inGot a call about a panel that kept dropping its dialer line every single night at 2 AM.
Been there, that's a sneaky one.
