Imposters, that toilet isn't even on fire.  That is a hell of a vise.

You kid, but I would not be at all surprised if there were a toilet gun. Cabinets made some slight headway before breaking the table saw. Gotta tighten the reins on the roommate's free labor.

Also there used to be a bathroom gun, I'm not sure if there is one anymore. Might be one upstairs, that bathroom does have a window. There are so many guns in that house I don't even know where they all are kept at, and I live there.

Heh. My buddy texted me asking if I wanted the leftover mortars at his house from the fourth. Que flashback to July 4 wherein a drunk revmoo nailed this guy's neighbor's house not once, but twice head-on. Nah I don't think I should be entrusted with fireworks.

Adiabatic posted:I'm in Richmond. Come on out! I'm also in Richmond. I also have a rather large garage. I would like to be your friend / RVA garage bro. Also, I would like to donate a beer fridge to your cause. It's a glass front door fridge, like the ones you see at convenience stores. It recently stopped making things cold, but the box itself is pretty awesome. It shouldn't be a tough fix, I just haven't had the money to put beer in it, so I've had no reason to even attempt to fix it. Edit: I'm a donk and haven't read through the whole thread yet. I see you have a fridge but this one is still pretty awesome:  (this is my garage in NOVA) GnarlyCharlie4u fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Dec 15, 2014 |

It's like a slow version of the Star Trek replicator, tell it what you want, 3-5 days later it shows up.) Look at this scrub without Amazon Prime. Awesome garage, btw. If I lived anywhere near you, I'd totally bring you all the beer you can drink (and possibly some scotch).

Dude bring that poo poo over (or tell me where to pick it up) and you can come drink beer out of it whenever you like. Got any pictures of your RVA garage?

Adiabatic posted:Good. I hate painting. I'll throw money at a paint shop all day. I will certainly deliver you a fridge as soon as I can. I'm pretty busy for the first next few days, but I'll pm you when I have some time to come over. I don't have any recent garage pictures. I used to maintain my blog (see my avatar) pretty well when I lived in NOVA so there's a lot of pictures of cool stuff there. But I just sort of got too busy to enjoy my garage once I moved to RVA, so there's not a lot of good pictures of it  In fact these might be the only couple photos I've taken of the place since I've been here, and it looks nothing like this now:   The carpeted garage in NOVA is still a thing and I may be moving back there if I get this job in Falls Church.

Saw a 275 gallon heat oil tank on craigslist for $40. Then saw they go for cheap all day long. Now I'm researching DIY waste oil heaters. It never ends, does it?

Went to my grandparents in North Carolina yesterday. My grandpa died a couple of months ago and he wanted me to have all his woodworking tools. I'll take some more pictures when we get them to the garage, but everything he had was at least 50 years old and looks solid. Here's a blurry picture of the coolest looking one, a 6' tall band saw:  There's also a table saw with a joiner on the side, a drill press, an arm saw, and a wood lathe. The $600 suspension swap WRX buddy came by to do the sway bar bushings and the incredibly fun trailing arm bushings YAY. I told him they're a bitch, so unfortunately I'd have to charge him two cases of beer:   BUT WHATS THAT LURKING IN THE BACKGROUND?! I have named the vise Jörmungandr, in honor of Thor's arch-enemy, the snake that grew so large it ate its tail and squeezed the entire world. Jörmungandr desires the flesh of the unworthy:  I'm glad I went ahead and janky-mounted it to the current cabinets. Slow Is Fast and I did Terrible Robot's trailing arm bushings on the small blue one that was just eaten, and it was a pain in the rear end. We also got a small propane torch to last me until I find an oxyacetylene cart. The heat made it easier:  Pressing the bushings in:  New trailing arm bushings in:  Jörmungandr proudly displays the spoils of his work for the day:  Payment is made:  He even tipped me in Red Bull and stickers:  What a relaxing Sunday.

Ahahaha gently caress yeah! I'm glad I was able to instill the wisdom and greatness that is Subaru trailing arm bushings. We made it happen with what we got, but yeah that torch and the vice I'm sure that job was crushed out easy. Drink a yeungling for me!

I almost choked on the chunk of burger I was stuffing in my face hole while reading. That is a bad muthafucking vise. I'm jealous of all who live near this holy-land of automotive maintenance and questionable morals.

I'll make the trip down as long as nothing pressing comes up. I don't think I mentioned it before, but that vise probably hasn't been greased in 40 years, so it would be a worthy investment of your time to take it apart and clean the old grease out with some gasoline or other solvents and re-grease the screw and nut. That should help it last another 70 years.

A CHALLENGER APPEARS: Thanks GnarlyCharlie4u! You're a cool dude. Let me know when I can come check out your motorcycles, and I'll let you know when the V4 is ready to be in less pieces. iForge posted:I'll make the trip down as long as nothing pressing comes up. Will do. It seems to be pretty smooth already but better safe than sorry. EDIT: The Subaru group is talking a lot about some cool projects: One has an '08 Legacy he wants to do a manual swap on. This one's mostly just talk though. One has a Forester he just bought an XT clip for. He's swapping the turbo motor in and RHD converting it. One just bought an up-pipe and external wastegate from Grimmspeed. Two are talking about timing belt/pulley jobs. Hopefully some of that comes my way. I've already put out the offers.

Glad to see it's found a good home. She's been in my life for the better part of 10 years now. Let me know when she's operational, I'd like to stick my hot beer in her at least one more time. And yeah I'd love to help out with the v4 whenever your roomie is ready.
